Well, it finally happened – after 21 games as the head coach of the FSU football team, Willie Taggart became the former head coach of the Seminoles after spending the third shortest tenure of any head coach in the history of the program behind two coaches who lasted exactly one season (Ed Williamson in 1947 and Perry Moss in 1959.)
It was almost a known fact after the Seminoles got thumped last Saturday against hated rival Miami that Taggart’s days leading the Noles were numbered – we just didn’t know that the number was going to be just one day after boosters reportedly spent the last week coming up with the nearly $20 million it was going to take.
