    So I also think we have to keep in mind how low that had gotten. He’s no doubt got them playing better. But that’s from about the lowest baseline I think I could ever imagine. Plus, he’s going to be a different coach. He gets to be the cleaner upper of the problem from that low baseline with...

    Is not his fault at all. But it still happened and the best justification anyone ever had for Terry was keeping the class together and guys from leaving. That was the ticket to not being bad next year. Clear now that it’s mostly happening anyway and so now the best way to not have to punt the...

    4th and 3 punt at Ohio State. The record is all there. He’s a good man who isn’t qualified to be the Head Coach at Penn State. But I’ll say this he’ll never leave!

    What it does is punt any decision at all.

    That’s fine, reasonable people can agree to disagree. I don’t think he’s a better option than Chesney, and if we’re hiring assistant coaches, he’s not a better option than a lot of guys out there. If he were not a psu assistant coach and alum, he wouldn’t be in the top 10,000 candidates.

    Smith’s hire would reflect super short term thinking IMO. I’ll support anyone not named Matt Rhule but I don’t believe he’s the best the program can do. Nor has he shown anything performance-wise to convince anyone who has a clue that he is the best option.

    Not wrong. But the lines move on money coming in and sometimes that can telegraph sentiment from those in the know front running it.

    4-20 over two years might be a sign you’re not great.

    I never saw Franklin taking recruits as bad. Preferred it not to happen but is what is it is. All in the game.

    People wanted to fire Franklin in Year 12 because he couldn’t win those games. Of course there’s a different set of standards for a guy in year 1, even years 2-3, even for the most high profile home run hires.

    I’m worried Mr Franklin needs a QB.
