    With a $13.3M Helfrich buyout and what, a roughly $3M contract....that's one expensive hire. I think he's a good choice but $16M? Damn.

    I have to wonder what will happen to all the lifer coaches. Hadn't realized how many were still on staff.
    LB's -Pellum- 33 yrs
    DB's - Neal-14 yrs
    RB's - Cambell- 37 yrs
    OL - Greatwood- 30 yrs
    OC - Lubick- 6 yrs
    S&C - Radcliffe- 30 yrs

    To be honest, at first I was disappointed, but the more I know about Willie Taggart, the better I feel. I like that he was an assistant along with David Shaw, and helped Jim Harbaugh built Stanford into a power. Harbaugh calls Taggart the best recruiter he's ever known,.. Harbaugh was best man at Taggart's wedding and says Willie's an extension of his family. Since leaving Stanford, Taggart has successfully built two losing programs from the ground up into winners.

    Next year's gonna be fun, (gotta be better than '16),.. Our fans are spoiled though, Coach Taggart had better make the Ducks fly and soon.

    I feel for our long time assistants, their lives are going to change.

    Congrats on a fine season, vball, your boys really turned into something fine.
    Looking forward to a great Rose Bowl, excellent match-up,.. playoff caliber.

    Actually, it was Jim's father Jack with that quote. Jack coached Taggart at Western Kentucky and was quoted as calling him the best recruiter he'd ever been associated with. Taggart returned to coach at WKU after several years at Stanford under Jim.

    I think it's a great hire and think he'll do well. Like you, the more I know about him, the more I like him. Now, I kinda wish we would have got him. Congrats.

    Wake finds radio announcer, ex-player leaked game plans
    http://www.espn.com/college-footbal...s-radio-announcer-leaked-game-plans-opponents
    Wake Forest has concluded that former player, assistant coach and team radio announcer Tommy Elrod provided confidential game preparations to opponents several times starting in 2014. An equipment manager discovered Wake Forest plays inside Louisville's Cardinal Stadium the day before Wake and Louisville were set to play. Elrod has been fired and will no longer broadcast Wake Forest football games. Wake Forest alerted Louisville and the ACC that it was investigating a potential internal breach of confidentiality.

    Reached Tuesday by ESPN, Louisville had no comment.
