I would think Helton, but according to Chip Patterson we are going to make the playoffs.

How long is Taggart's leash at FSU?

I would give him 2 more years. I think he gets 7-8 wins this year. As long as he's showing improvement, he's safe. Fact is, Jimbo left the pantry pretty dry, particularly on the O-line. While I don't think he'll be the HC to get FSU back to competing for 'ships. I do think he can right the ship and get them going in the right direction.

Aks @FifthQuarter, he's the Nole Guru here.

Lol at Gundy even being on there. Before Gundy we were cellar dwellers after the NCAA led by an Oklahoma alum rocked our shit for bidding on Hart Lee Dykes in the 80s. Even the NCAA said the punishments were extreme and too severe for what the infraction was.

We were banned from TV, post season, scholarships yanked etc. We were given just short of the death penalty.

Gundy is the only coach to bring us back. Pat Jones bailed instead of keep the ship sailing.

Gundy had one bad season that saw us beat 4 of 5 teams ranked in the final AP 25 and were ranked at the time we beat them too and went 7-6. He's going nowhere.

Yeah if he makes a bowl he is good. FSU's athletic department never fires anyone.
 
Luke better get his butt on this list soon
We did our part to rush his exit, last year. Our defense was decimated with injuries and y'all were moving the ball at will against our backups to our backups. If y'all had maintained a balanced attack, y'all would have scored again and won. Y'all went to the two minute drill too early and we just layed back and swatted away passes. I was dumbfounded we held on defensively late fourth quarter.

Btw, first trip to The Grove, it's freaking awesome!!

Edit: The land shark thing is absolutely aweful. I'm embarrassed for y'all.
 
Any answer not Helton is incorrect.

I will say this. a bad showing by Michigan this year and another poor performance in The Game is going to put Harbaugh on a hot seat. Though he wouldn't be fired this year no matter what.
 
It’s Helton. Les Miles to USC.


Tgat is something me and a couple of people talked about the other year.

Miles with west coast offense, B12 tradition, and SEC understanding at a blue blood could be dangerous.

The question would be if he could handle the insane expectation the fans would have.

Somewhere like Kansas there is no expectation. Seriously if they win 2 conference games in a single season that is considered growth
