What are the chances that Dino Babers is FSU's HC by 2020/21

If he picks up the pieces for the rest of this year, after the Maryland debacle, he's probably a pretty good fit to straighten out the mess in Tally.

I like coach Babers and I hope he doesn't stay at the Cuse too long. He would be great for FSU

It depends on what

Urban chooses to do and...perhaps...whether Riley stays in Norman...or heads to Big D. FSU could actually be Option 3.

I think Dino would probably be a pretty good fit at FSU, but I hope it doesn’t happen. FSU can reap the whirlwind.
I don’t think Riley fits in Dallas. Jerry Jones demands that his employees be “yes men”. I can’t think of a single good Coach ever, that was a “yes man”. I hope Jerry finds his “yes man” Coach and keeps failing to win anything that matters, just like the last 23 years.

I doubt it. I do not see FSU going in that direction and IF Dino jumps, it will be back to the west coach IMO.
Actually Babers might be in a little bit of trouble if he does not have a decent showing this year. He had two 4-8 seasons correct? He can regress to far in his 4th season. Still, keeping them in the bowls and having a good win will be important but if he does not produce now when the ACC is as weak as it is, then it will be a tougher jump as if he jumped in January.
I expect FSU to grab some SEC DC or similar. Tom O'Brien kinda showed you can't jump from a nawthern ACC school to a southern school and be better off.

I don't want Babers anyhwere close to FSU

or USuC for that matter. Dino Babers is a good coach and I don't want him tainted with their rotten stench.
I know I'm probably in a minority voice here - but I could not care less if FSU remains dumpster fire from now until eternity. I don't buy the argument the ACC needs FSU to be good/great as a bad FSU hurts Clemson in the competitive schedule arena. FSU has stunk for 3 years now and it has had zero effect on our ability to get to the CFP. Clemson is now a recognized national powerhouse brand and we don't need a good FSU to build our credibility. I say screw FSU - a nasty program the deserves to be lost in the desert for while...

The question is would he want to?

Especially if Taggert is given another year or 2 to run the program even more into the ground.

Unless Taggart has a miraculous season I don't see him in Tally past this year. But I also know nothing about his contract, FSU buyout position, etc.

They owe him $17 million if they get rid of him this year.

Taggarts buyout according to an FSU sports board:
Sep 10, 2019, 1:40 PM
[ in reply to Re: The question is would he want to? ] |

If Florida State fires Taggart before his contract expires on Jan. 31, 2023, his buyout is 85 percent of the remaining balance. For example, if the Seminoles fire Taggart on Feb. 1, 2020, after his second full season as head coach, they would owe him 85 percent of $20 million, or $17 million.
Feb. 1, 2020: $17 million
Feb. 1, 2021: $12.75 million
Feb. 1, 2022: $8.5 million
Feb. 1: 2023: $4.25 million
If these numbers are correct - Taggart probably has through 2021 to run FSU into the dirt....

I think by season's end the FSU Alumni will be sending a collection plate around to get rid of him. He has many more showings last the last 2 weeks and he may not make it to season's end. I live in the middle of FSU country and many around are ready to can him now. It just takes a couple of wealthy Alumni and he'll be gone.

I always read stuff like this (so and so's fans are taking a collection for a buyout), but has any school actually ever done this and followed through?

will really hurt his successor. Taggart's problem is that he can't coach. He's done a good job of program building everywhere he's been and i think he will do a good enough job of recruiting and all at FSU. His actual coaching acumen is just getting exposed as too much of a liability at the highest level of CFB. I wouldn't be surprised if he leaves a better situation for the next coach than the one he himself stepped into when he replaced Jimbo.
