ex-Stanford assistant Willie Taggert, who has done an excellent job at Western Kentucky and would be a very formidable coach at a bigger program. 

Kentucky just fired their coach.  Taggert would have to be a top candidate for the KY job, wouldn't he?

I don't see K.al's problems as a talent issue.  They have plenty of very capable players, many of whom were highly sought-after recruits.  Witness the way they dismantled UCLA earlier this year.  The problem is coaching.  K.al only plays hard some of the time.  Tedford also has been unable to develop a top flight QB since Aaron Rodgers.  You don't need a high profile coach to rectify these issues.
