"Along with Stoops taking over as head coach, sources said that Kendal Briles will remain on staff as offensive coordinator, while Jim Leavitt would be retained as defensive coordinator. The source went on to say that with keeping Briles on staff as offensive coordinator, it could turn into a head coach in waiting role. Stoops is 59, would want to groom a successor before he retires"

I do not look forward to playing a stoops/briles offense regularly.

So, the problem lied solely with Taggart, and not Briles and/or Leavitt? Oooooooookay.

Just saw this...pretty classy.

Classier man than his bosses.

Grooming, eh?

I think Briles got some experience with that at Baylor.

Bob Stoops out

Bob Stoops out

That was quick.

If the other Stoops turns it down, that would be telling as to the mess FSU created for itself.

 

[Symphony Steve]

So much for that 'Stoops To Conquer' hed.

BTW, three decommits from FSU so far. Only one, Jaylon Knighton, with an SU offer, although we were not a finalist.

Bob Stoops has a coaching job in the XFL (Dallas team) starting in a few months. I wonder if he really just want a relaxing part-time job like that instead of the stress of being at FSU with expectations

Bob Stoops out

wow...that escalated fast and died fast. It will be interesting to see how this shakes out. Possible dumpster fire in the making here?

 

[IthacaBarrel]

worst case you have to imagine they wind up with Lane Kiffin who has reinvented himself into a respectable almost likeable guy at this point. I don't see Leach taking it.

 

[Chip]

I don't see Leach taking it.

He's a guy who voluntarily moved from Key West to Pullman.

I'll never know what makes him tick.

 

[samspann1]

This cracked me up.

 

[orange79]

This cracked me up.

It was hilarious reading the comments of the FSU fans who thought that was real.

C'mon, people. Then again, Florida.

 

[Trueblue25]

I deserve this pairing

 

[Trueblue25]

Thank baby jesus Stoops wont be the next HC.

man would’ve guaranteed this would be Les if you asked me two months ago

 

[Ozcuse]

Now that Trump is a Florida resident they should hire him as HC.

 

[elimunelson]

I deserve this pairing

Kidding makes the most sense marriage of convenience

Looks like FSU is nearing a deal for Bob Stoops. ACC Is getting better. Great coach if they can pull it off.

This was debunked earlier in the thread. He's not a candidate.

If Taggart didn't get the job done, might need Axel Foley
