Willie Taggart has maintained the need to improve the football facilities at Florida State for quite some time.
Former Seminoles coach Jimbo Fisher wanted a standalone football facility, too, before leaving for Texas A&M last year, according to the Tallahassee Democrat.
After FSU announced in early September its new Unconquered Campaign, a five-year $100 million fundraising effort for their athletic programs that included $60 million for a standalone football facility, Taggart and his wife Taneshia donated $1 million toward it.
Now an anonymous donor matched the Taggart’s pledge, the school announced in a press release.
