This week has been good for USF Head Coach Willie Taggart as USF Set Records Across The Board This Season.

Among the names for the opening at the University of Oregon for Head Coach, Willie Taggart may have heard his name called. Over the last few days, the USF Offense has been honored by the AAC Conference.

The team overall has a record win total, a record breaking Offense and they are taking care of business in the classroom with a Record GPA.

If the Oregon Ducks wanted a Head Coach coming off a record setting season with a ton of positive publicity, Taggart may be their guy. Of course, Rob Mullens would like to have a decision sooner rather than later and the Bulls are certainly in the running for a higher tier bowl game this season.

Willie Taggart also has a pedigree that Mullens may be looking for. He ran a spread Offense with USF, and also is a West Coast guy having been an Assistant at Stanford meaning Oregon would not lose much in Recruiting the West.

The big question though, can he be pulled away from continuing the success at the University of South Florida.
