Willie Taggart, per Hasselbeck: We haven’t really played many rain games, so there’s not much we can do about preparing for one.
Clawson: “(Friday) we had buckets of water and before every play, we soaked the ball in water, we didn’t wipe it down. So every snap we had yesterday was with a wet ball. Every throw we had was with a wet ball. Our snappers yesterday, every snap — and how much does it help, I don’t know? But there’s a psychology to it where we want our guys to say, ‘Hey, we’ve already done this.’”
Taggert seems like a likable guy and I'd really be pulling for him if he were coaching at other places, but if I were an FSU fan these kind of comments and even the comment about not hydrating enough after the Boise State game would infuriate me. I mean he's making how many million a year and he says this crap. All we needed to prepare for the rain was a couple of buckets and some water from the sink. That's not because Clawson is genius, it's because he's got an ounce of common sense.
