These days, one can't sift through a preseason publication or podcast without being reminded of Willie Taggart's seemingly tenuous job security.
The consensus sentiment is, USF's third-year coach faces a bowl-or-bust fall.

The odds are stiff. But if Taggart can survive for the long term, he's preparing for it brilliantly.
