That's a big reason why FSU wanted more $$$ - coaches' salaries. They let him go because he wanted more than he was worth. He seemed to be all about $$$ and wasn't doing that well with all their recruits. I have read the athletic dept. was happy to see him go as he was arrogant and they had that scandal with Winston too, gave him the benefit of the doubt, and let him play after some internal review headed up by some outside legal guy of some reknown. Then they brought in Taggart from Oregon no less and fired him during the first year - not a good look as an AFAM guy is getting canned by a bunch of white dudes as somebody here mentioned. (I would give Dino until the close of the season for that and other reasons.) We had a black AD at one time - he might have been there when the deed was done. Taggart went to Florida Atlantic for two years and they terminated his contract too. I read that he is now the running backs coach for the NFL Ravens - he started with Harbaugh at Stanford in the same position. What do I really think about coaches' salaries? It's ridiculous. They can make their career with one good player at a key position like QB and the schools get shaken down. This is one of the reasons that all these schools are chasing TV $$$ to augment gate receipts and donations.
