You really do...

It had to happen he will land on his feet some where else.

I almost started this thread last week. I'm curious to see who Penn State goes after. With the current landscape of college football, this hire means a lot for the future of Penn State football. 

50 mill buy out!

My neighbor in SC is a Penn State grad( son of a professor), grew up in State College, and is still a season ticket holder. He is very close with some people who are very involved with the program (donors). He told me this summer that many folks were tired of Franklin and unless he did something really big, it wouldn't surprise him if he was out. He got that one. 

FWIW.

 

 

What?  Stoops didn't make the Vegas boards?

$20K a day. Bonkers.

Two jobs I have seen his name mentioned for already were UCLA and North Carolina. Why would UCLA hire him when they beat him with a guy on the job for less than 72 hours. lol

Penn State insider tells me Manny Diaz is really well liked and highly regarded in Happy Valley. The loss to GaTech today probably dimmed that a bit.

Franklin didn’t waste anytime on the PR tour. He was College Gameday this morning.
