Football:
FSU AD David Coburn has shot down rumors that a decision has been made to move on from Willie Taggart. He also said that there’s not a snowball’s chance that they would target Urban Meyer in any potential coaching search.
Dan Wolken of USA Today ranked Willie Taggart’s contract as the third worst deal in college football. I’m sure you can guess who number one is.
Despite Taggart’s buyout, Matt Baker of the Tampa Bay Times suggests that FSU needs to find a way to cut bait with the second-year head coach now.
The latest Nolecast discusses Taggart’s future, as well as running through different scenarios for how the rest of the season could play out.
The ’Noles were back to practice, and after seeing considerable playing time against Wake Forest, freshman Darius Washington continues to work with the first team offensive line:

We extend our well wishes to former FSU OC Mark Richt and former Miami HC Mark Richt who suffered a heart attack:
I am assuming word travels fast. So I wanted to be able to inform everyone that I did have a heart attack this morning. I am doing fine. As I went through the experience I had peace knowing I was going to heaven but I was going to miss my wife. I plan to be at work this week.

Richt, who is currently an analyst for the ACC Network, seems to be in good spirits:
I guess I’m off the cheese balls!
