Coach Willie Taggart Gives Keys to Early Recruiting Success for FAU

With little ability to work with and coach current players on the roster, college coaching staffs around the country have spent much of that time recruiting.

As of May 30th, there is nearly triple the number of FBS verbal commits in the 2021 class, compared to the same date in 2019 for the 2020 class.

FAU head football coach Willie Taggart and his staff have taken advantage of the historic commitment pace, landing thirteen verbal pledges to date, giving the Owls the early lead as the number one recruiting class on Conference USA, according to 247sports' rankings.
