Florida State and new head coach Willie Taggart had a tough weekend. After a blowout loss at Syracuse dropped the Seminoles to 1-2 on the season and 0-2 in ACC play, the reaction has not been positive from both Florida State fans and casual onlookers.

The criticism and satisfaction extends into many non-traditional areas, including the adult-films industry. Former adult-movie star and noted sports fan Mia Khalifa started a GoFundMe page immediately following Florida State’s loss to Syracuse. The goal?

“Buy Taggart out of his contract, so that FSU doesn't go bankrupt trying to hire a real D1 Coach.”

The campaign seeks $21.2 million, and raised a whopping $31 within the first 18 hours. Khalifa has been an outspoken sports fan in recent years as a self-described “DC sports girl.” That includes multiple radio appearances and co-hosting responsibilities on “SportsBall” and “Out of Bounds” with Gilbert Arenas.

Saturday was not her first foray into Florida State football, including a once-viral tweet toward Justin Fields and a celebration when Cam Akers committed to Jimbo Fisher.

“It’s an emergency, we should all do our part to help,” Khalifa tweeted regarding Taggart.

After this loss to the Orange, morale in Tallahassee cannot be high. National media already wonders how Florida State fell so far under Taggart. Some wondered if Taggart even survives the season — or even the night. It is not an easy situation for Taggart right now. Florida State is a program, and a fan base, that doesn't tolerate losing. It seems crazy that a first-year head coach could be on the hot seat, but from looking at Twitter that may be the position Taggart is in.

“For nine months Willie Taggart preached togetherness and toughness in the face of adversity (lacking in ‘17),” wrote Chris Fowler. “We’re gonna find out if the sermon was taken to heart. 0-2 in ACC. Next At Lville and UM. Ahead: Clemson, at NC St, at ND, BC. The real adversity: they are not good.”

After the game, Taggart was asked about quarterback Deondre Francois, and if he thought about putting in backup James Blackman. Francois was 18 of 36 for 178 yards and an interception against Syracuse (passer rating of 85.97), and now has a passer rating of 114.78 on the season, which is 99th nationally. Francois was consistently under duress throughout Saturday’s game, getting sacked four times.

“So you want me to put someone else in there to get hit like that? No, because Deondre wasn’t the problem,” Taggart said. “If Deondre was a problem, if I thought he was the problem, I would’ve made a change. Deondre is not the problem right now. So no, I didn’t think about changing.”

Florida State (1-2) hosts Northern Illinois Saturday with the need to bounce back to hold off even more heat for the new head coach.
