Negative recruiting is ubiquitous! Out coaches will overcome it, no doubt. Franklin is talking about a specific perpetrator spreading lies.

Maybe he should start then. CJF is smoking sPitt on the recruiting trail. Fact.Again I repeat. Narduzzi does not negatively recruit. I find it humorous that Narduzzi is inside Franklin's head. If you are going to preach mental toughness to your players--you had better be mentally tough yourself!

And you KNOW this how?
Probably the same way everyone on this board insists Franklin doesn't negative recruit.And you KNOW this how?
Pnnylion is on fire.Pitt and its shit smelling following of LIARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pretty sure he mentioned ND as one he recruits against. I believe it was the school he did not name.The team that's doing the most negative recruiting is ND. Franklin thought he had Adams, Hinish in the bag. Die to getting 2 coaches from PGH central. Thorpe told Franklin it was ND throwing Penn st under the bus

It's become the "Team Which Shall Not be Named"!! It's like a Monty Python skit, except not particularly funny. That's my problem with not coming out and naming names in this type of situation. It becomes a distraction and a constant need to backtrack and explain "no, no, I didn't mean this or that team, it's somebody else." That just encourages the media to speculate more and more and keep asking you questions about it.Pretty sure he mentioned ND as one he recruits against. I believe it was the school he did not name.
Sorry if you don't believe me.
But i am very confident what i said is on the mark.

I did find it enjoyable in the tweet of the video with Meyer where he basically calls out the media for generating a non-story...and all the goofy media guys standing around him laugh at what idiots they are!!
Regardless how i feel about your head coach. It noway reflexs on the facts i thought ide share. I thought you guys wanted the truth.Are you just as confident about the BS you posted on the rutgers board?
Another rutgers loser that posts crap about Penn State to distract from the fact that their school, fans, and teams suck. Lol.
"Oh forgot to say. Franklin has done more negative recruiting than any coach around. You don't see other coaches crying like he does. Its comical in central Pa"
"If you can't see the spin, everyone at Penn st uses to not accept the facts. You are simply the problem why everyone around the country realizes how wacko your fan base is"

Sure i can. I never said Rutgers has a better program than Penn st.The truth is rutgers sucks and always will. The school's obsession with Penn State is beyond pathetic. Can you handle the truth??
I'm not trying to say you ignore it in this case, but I think you either try to go directly to the source (especially when it's a school in your own conference, which seems to be the case based on Barbour's comments) and say it ends now or we are going to call you out publicly on this, or you skip the niceties and say publicly that Team X is out there telling our recruits these lies. Team X's coach will of course feign surprise and protest that they have done nothing of the kind and would never consider it as their code of honor forbids it. But, if they have done it, the recruits then see their true colors, and at a minimum it makes it far more difficult for them to say anything like that to recruits going forward that contradict their public statements. It seems to me that this has become something of a drag (at least for the last couple of days) on Franklin and the program at a time when everyone should be focusing on the start of a new season and all of that. Certainly a lot of that is media-driven crap, but I assume Franklin and Barbour should have expected that would happen if they kept talking about it.The other problem is that some people think the coaches will jump up and admit to it. They all know it is going on and different schools/coaches bring it up every so often. Hell OSU fans hated LJ Sr because he negative recruited...I mean mentioned grad rates. The problem is lying about a school and saying they are going to be sanctioned again with nothing to base it on and using it as a scare tactic.
Again I repeat. Narduzzi does not negatively recruit. I find it humorous that Narduzzi is inside Franklin's head. If you are going to preach mental toughness to your players--you had better be mentally tough yourself!
Well, even though it's "negative recruiting" I'll just go ahead and tell it: Narduzzi is going to MSU after the 2017 season. D'antonio is retiring after two more seasons and Hollis has told Narduzzi he's the guy. Sooo, any recruit wanting to play for Doozie better sign with MSU.
Penn State vs Wisconsin now will be known as the "Whine and Cheese Bowl."
Hard to believe that a twerp could stoop so low LOL. After all they've beaten us at least 2-3 times in our history. In all seriousness I'm sure they would do most anything to stop the exodus of Md, DC and NoVa talent to PSU. Also I wouldn't discount Rutgers as a source either.... they positively loath us.I don't believe it's any of the three that Franklin mentioned, and I don't believe it's Pitt.
I believe it's Maryland. I say that, because my brother, a Terp Grad, attended some alumni functions with Edsall, and with the new coach over the last 1 1/2 years, and he would tell me how the coaching staff said they knew they could use the Sandusky issues against Penn State (I am paraphrasing a bit), and that would help them with the moms and dads of the recruits. Some of this was before the new allegations came out, and I know he has attended at least one function after the allegations of the 1970's and has said the same thing about what the coaches have said.
Take it for what it's worth- there may be another school that Franklin has in mind, but from what I have been told, don't discount Maryland.
in Franklin's first comment, he mention that he is recruiting against Michigan, Ohio State, Michigan State and Norte Dame. Later, Franklin makes the comment that Michigan, Ohio State, and Michigan State aren't doing negative recruiting but doesn't include ND. He could have easily included ND when he mentioned the team's not doing negative recruiting.

You guys better go read the June 26 edition of the Reading Eagle newspaper (link below) Franklin is quoted as identifying ND,OSU and MSU as the culprits. Once he has to face Meyer and D'Antonio he immediately backtracks. Trust me that is not a good look. Myers smug response--I met Franklin and he denied making the accusation--says it all! Eventually you guys will catch on to Franklin's act--there is always some boogey man out to get him.
