With Jimbo Fisher officially leaving for Texas A&M this past Friday, the Florida State football program was forced to conduct a coaching search for the first time since 1976. That year, of course, is when the Seminoles hired Bobby Bowden, and the program has only seen one coaching change since then, in 2010 when Fisher took over for Bowden.
As a destination job, Florida State immediately became the most attractive open job in college football. On Tuesday, a mere 72 hours after Jimbo Fisher’s departure became official, the Seminoles ended its coaching search by landing its top target, Willie Taggart, sources have confirmed to Tomahawk Nation.
