I'd bring in Troy Taylor as OC and Assistant HC, with a wink and a nod. "Gimme two years, Troy. If we do well, Wilcox will be hired by someone else adn you will be da' Man. If we don't improve, Wilcox will be gone, and you will be da' Man. If we get an invite from the BiG, Wilcox will be gone immediately adn you will be da' Man." Win-win."

I would love this - associate head coach and offensive coordinator. But I honestly think it would be tough enough to pry him away for the head coach gig. No chance he leaves sac state for a coordinator job.
You know there is a recent precedent for a successful FCS coach to leave their program to take an OC position at a P5 school...though it did not go so well.
Problem is Taylor is from sac, loves sac, and imo, would be difficult to pry from sac. He has never been driven by ego or money, and for a guy whoтАЩs coaching in his hometown, he has an awesome situation at sac state.
He is not leaving sac state for an fbs job elsewhere, I can guarantee you that. He from here, played at Cordova, his familyтАЩs here, kids are here. Look at all of his career moves; he doesnтАЩt make moves for money. He may bleed blue and gold, but for a guy whoтАЩs not about money, the headaches that come with a moron AD and anti-football administration might be more than he wants to deal with when heтАЩs got a sweet gig at home in sac. Just my $.02, and thatтАЩs coming from a guy whoтАЩd love nothing more than to see him coaching our bears. All this is a moot point though because Wilcox isnтАЩt going anywhere given his insane extension.

Big retention bonus/salary increase for Year 3.
Troy Taylor had no interest in being an OC for Cal or anyone else.

You do realize he was a successful OC at P5 school who took Sac State job to be HC right? He's next career move is P5 HC.
Good point. Just need to hope that maybe a Cal job would speak differently to him. Who know...
