Otherwise those that still see Taggart as a great player with great potential as of right now, probably want ed WM to still be our coach.
I agree, coaches typically say nice things about their players in public.
However, the fact remains that he is the 6th man and a key contributor on a team that is in the Final 4 with a legitimate chance to win it all. I think that might qualify him as being a pretty decent player. Memphis is a pretty stellar program right now...over 100 wins in the last 3 years with 2 Elite 8s and 1 Final 4. You all can keep knocking the kid but I really think it looks petty and foolish to do so.
