The Oregonian reported Taggart's buyout is only $3m. Really small price to pay not just to get a HC that has strong ties to that area, but also all those 4* recruits he already has bagged. Mince no words here. If they go get him it's probably to take advantage of those ties he has and get some of those kids to flip with him.I would laugh my ass off if Taggart jumps ship on them. But I can't see this happening for multiple reasons.
Mainly, his buyout would be insane as he's only half a season into the job and that was 16 million total.
His name is being thrown out there, but he's easily anywhere from 5-10 in the rankings of who they really want.
It would also trigger a massive exodus out of that recruit class that Phil bought for them and a bunch of them are from tSEC country. Money has exchanged hands and a lot of promises for future compensation were negotiated. There would be a lot of fallout from all that as well. Phil's ego wouldn't accept this. He didn't spend all those hundreds of millions at Nike U. to have it be a jumping point program for coaches.
It would be a real hot mess.
