How Cal Won the Battle for BYU’s Top Defensive Talent—And What It Means for Colorado’s Hopes
Winning a recruiting battle over a former conference rival like Colorado shows that Cal remains aggressive in the college football transfer portal, even after joining the ACC. The move also signals the coaching staff’s intent to reinforce their defense after a disappointing first season in the new conference.
For Cal football, the expectation is that Taggart will compete for a starting linebacker role immediately. His production at BYU, including three tackles for loss and three pass breakups, makes him a plug-and-play option. If he performs as expected, the Golden Bears could find themselves climbing the ACC standings in 2025.
