volnation is split. Lots of folks underwhelmed. But, there was zero chance they'd have a consensus, no matter who they picked.
I’ve concluded Vol Nation only considers 3 hires to be acceptable:
Saban
Belichick
Jesus

Can't blame Taggart for wanting to go home to Florida, but that leaves Oregon in a tough spot. The early list of potential candidates include a couple names already on the staff, Mike Leach, and Kevin Sumlin. If Leach is really that unhappy at WSU this would be an interesting leap for him.
edit: semi-related tangent regarding Kevin Sumlin - after he dropped out of the running for the UCF job they contacted Matt Campbell's successor at Toledo, Jason Candle. Candle might be on the move. Not a P5 job, but definitely a nice base to build from.
The Jimbo-aTm-Taggart-FSU rumor has been around for over a week now. Oregon knew this and called UCF but they were told Frost was not available. (Football Scoop)
Link for everyone:

"Sources tell FootballScoop Oregon does not consider Scott Frost “available” should their position open. Make your own assumptions from there."
It is really unfair that this statement by the most qualified person to make a judgment won't have the staying power of a rock spray painted by some drunk student. Schiano will always now be associated with Sandusky.
I don't know how I've not seen this before but it is absolutely hilarious!
