His Western Kentucky football team is playing Kentucky Saturday and Taggart got upset because he saw so many students on his campus wearing Kentucky apparel.
Taggart tweeted, “They probably couldn’t get into UK.”
The former Manatee High great later apologized and said he was just miffed because WKU students who wear UK apparel are not showing allegiance to his school.
Feeling here is Taggart deserves a pass. He runs a clean program and has given a lot of kids who were headed for trouble a chance.
But here is a better question:
What would Joe Kinnan say if he saw a bunch of students
wearing Southeast apparel during game week against the Seminoles?
Could we safely assume whatever he said would make
Taggart’s comments seem rather mundane?
You have got to be kidding me...Taggart should know from having been a student-athlete at WKU that the majority of people who live in Kentucky are Wildcats fans because of basketball. Sorry your feelings got hurt Coach, but it is difficult to change culture.
ReplyDeleteyep and he's doing just that changing culture
