Four of her last five years she was .500 or below....this writer is saying Franklin would get fired for going 7-6, which is above .500. Coquese did not finish over .500 and get fired.It does happen on occasion, but PSU does have a history of settling for mediocrity in some sports--cooper, warming, even pavlik recently.
Have you been breaking into the sauce tonight?For fvcks sake WHAT?
Rum or vodka?For example: no way OB is leaving, joepa stayed for decades.
Nice....that would be fun.You’re my boy so I’ll be straight. We threw 2 hours in the hot tub (min 12 pack) and Son2 and I just made a pitcher of Kamikazees
Love,
Rick
You want to spend two hours in a hot tub with this jabronie?Nice....that would be fun.
Pass the brush sponge SuroYou want to spend two hours in a hot tub with this jabronie?
By this guy who wrote the article and I don’t care if you care.
I read all of your posts so ....yeah.Hey if you like reading drivel from a self-proclaimed expert go for it.
I was talking about the kamikazes, not the hot tub.You want to spend two hours in a hot tub with this jabronie?
It’s just clickbait from someone who has no idea.
Go 7-6 at Penn St and it’s a “BIG problem”? Franklin already went 7-6 at PSU (twice) and yet is still here. We all know what he walked into back then but if he went 7-6 next year he’d still be here the following year as well. Penn St is not the cutthroat culture that the writer thinks.
You should ask for a pink unicorn that farts rainbows and poops gold.
You have a better chance of getting that.
Even dumber when Harbag is only at 7 and Shaw is more secure than CJF. What a joke.Pretty dumb list when 1/3 of them are first year coaches.
He is trying to reduce the value of Tesla’s stock.Isn’t Elon Musk working on that?

Allow me to elaborate, Baron. There was just a little too much smoke around that situation for me to feel as confident as you. So much has changed in regard to optics; not just since 2011 at PSU but in the last five years in broader society.There is nothing to the alleged Vanderbilt incident vis a vis Franklin. He told the accused players they better tell the police the truth and kicked them off the team. I mean really.
Never implied that Franklin would get fired for a 7-6 record. Quite the opposite actually. I merely pointed out that PSU keeps plenty of coaches around despite middling results.Four of her last five years she was .500 or below....this writer is saying Franklin would get fired for going 7-6, which is above .500. Coquese did not finish over .500 and get fired.
Absolutely correct! I loved JVP as much as anyone but I truly think Joe was looking to get a Ivy League invite. It,s all about the Benjamin’s and that didn’t sit well with Joe. OSU / Clemson clearly had the vision to see what it will take to be Elite . I think based on its recruiting base and history PSU can always be a 8-9 win team most years. James Franklin is a very good coach pushing uphill. You want to be Elite spend the $$$ or else every 5 years we block a punt and go the a decent bowl game.I am no CJF apologists, but he has done a very good job. If you are going to lay blame on anyone, that should be the BOT and AD for not updating the facilities quick enough. It’s all about recruiting. Part of the problem is that Joe didn’t give a turd about the facility “rat race” and that is part of the problem why we are way behind. Love JVP, but he did not see the writing on the wall and just thought PSU could recruit it self on the merits of history and the institution. Lasch was cutting edge when it was built, but had sat their for ions until Bill arrived and demanded changes (weight room etc).

I would imagine that in this current climate any PSU coach with three players who gang raped someone would be unlikely to keep their job. Especially if the coach told their team about seeing the video of the attack only to change their story when questioned by authorities; or independently called the victim four days after the attack just to let the woman know they support her; or allegedly pressured a player to erase the video. Those circumstances would be tough to overlook nowadays even if they weren't prosecuted. That's just the age in which we live, especially at Penn State. Fair or not.

Penn State does not fire coaches in major sports. Women's basketball is not a major sport.Dumb....they say he deserves more credit, but go 7-6 at Penn State and there’s a BIG problem....based on what? How many coaches at Penn State were let go for going 7-6? Paterno had years where many schools would have ousted him
but PSU didn’t. The “hot seat” Franklin was on was only in the minds of the media and some moron fans, not in the minds of anyone who counts. Penn State as a university does not get rid of coaches easily (see Chambers), so one 7-6 season isn’t going to do anything.
You stand by your comments, I stand by mine. Please show me how I misspoke.Dude get your facts straight. I stand by my earlier comments.
Nice, that would be funYou want to spend two hours in a hot tub with this jabronie?
Any coach that wins 11 games 3 out of the last 4 years with a conference title and 2 NY6 Bowl Games should have a seat so cold he has icicles stuck to his *ss.
I suspect that you’ll find coach Franklin has a new gig next year in the nfl. The recent move by the nfl is going to put unbelievable pressure on the nfl owners to hire African American coaches and honestly he’s got to be at the top of the list of available African American coaches. In fact i suspect he will be the next coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Tomlin is in the last year of his deal Franklin has a strong relationship with the Rooney’s and there is no way they hire a white coach and violate the Rooney rulemost overpaid coach? He’s winning 11 games lots of years it seems, how many other programs have won 11 games 3 of last 4 seasons ? I’ll hang up and listen

Or not.If all he wins is 7 games then he would deserve the hot seat.
However, my standard is what his record is against UM, tOSU, and MSU. Lose two out of three and it’s a bad year. Lose all 3 then Some serious questions should be asked. Put 3 losing years in a row against those 3 then adios.
