The reason we have lost so many coveted recruits like Carmen, Woodbey, and Cox is because they know Barrett is not better than Haskins and cost us the chance to compete for a title. They know Meyer is highly overrated, and relies too much on great assistants to win. They are right. Which is why I wanted Dantonio a long time ago.

Taggart was very familiar with Woodbey, the No. 2 safety in the 2018 class in the 247Sportscomposite rankings, because he offered him a scholarship while still the head coach at Oregon.

It was a school that I kind of thought was out of reach, so before my senior season started I was kind of like 'forget them,' but they offered me, and all that love came back.
