Here is a 'cute' article about the 4 year old son of a Seminole booster running a lemonade stand to buy out Willie Taggart's contract. That buyout is 17 million dollars.
Taggart didn't come to FSU after, say, 3 years as a P5 HC, the last of which was a conference champ. Taggart was 7-5 in his lone P5 season. The improvement in each of his 4 years at USF suggested he could do the job at FSU, but that kind of buyout for a coach who has not proven anything at the P5 level is nuts.
