Coach Willie Taggart drew some scrutiny for hiring Briles, who worked for his father, Art, at Baylor as that school went through a bruising scandal tied to sexual assault accusations. He will have to work around a deficient offensive line, but if the offense clicks then Taggart’s second year in Tallahassee should be much better than his first. (AP Photo/LM Otero, File)
