Who is JF’s agent?
- Thread starter RTRMR
- Start date
Word is that CJF fired Trace and hired Sexton the week before the Iowa game.
That would be weird since they are part of the same organization (unless one of them recently left).
Sexton represents 11 of the 14 SEC head coaches and is supposedly tight with the LSU AD.
CJF is either going to wind up at LSU or "allow" PSU to match any LSU offer. It will be interesting to see how this plays out ... will LSU still want him if he finishes the year at 7-5????
Right on cue. That was hilarious. And guess who's chiming in on it with him? This is too good to be true. What a bromance.
Actually negotiations are a persuasive skill as was the presentation he was doing to our small group.
Joe never had an agent. Oh I long for the old days. But I'm old, so excuse my nostalgia thoughts.
I'll admit it is intriguing to wonder why he changed agents, especially in the middle of the season, but does a specific agent really give a coach a better chance of being hired by a certain school? That sounds like a stretch to me. If PSU had a coaching vacancy I would hope no candidate gets the inside track because someone knows the agent.
Armstrong left CAA about five years ago.
It's part of being "fiercely loyal."
Thanks...interesting that now that you've pointed it out, I find this pretty bizarre article...

Obviously Franklin was tried of Trace floating his name for every job opening and it affecting his team. He thought there must be a better way to negotiate what he wants without doing it so publicly each year. Exit one agent - enter the next.
