Florida State University's president took to Twitter Sunday to call out a fan's Facebook post calling for the lynching of first-year head football coach Willie Taggart. "A recent racist social media post aimed at our football coach is ignorant and despicable," University president John Thrasher wrote on the school's official Twitter account. Coach Taggart has our full support and as true Seminoles know, he is a respected member of the FSU family." Florida State wrapped up a disappointing 5-7 campaign under Taggart with a 41-14 home loss to in-state rival Florida on Saturday.
