2013 College Football Coaching Carousel thread...

Nine of Franklin's 10 coaching hires were with him at Vandy. The 10th, former Penn State receiver Terry Smith, was a successful high school coach in western Pennsylvania, spent last year as a Temple assistant.

Isn't that Justin King's stepdad?

Penn State is very parochial. Wish Franklin had one or two more Penn Staters on the staff, for his sake (but then again, he's probably afraid of getting shanked in the back by them).

 

I believe you're right about King.

 

This should be fun when Rutgers plays Maryland: Fridge signs on to be Rutgers' offensive coordinator. Don't know what Rutgers has returning on that side of the ball, but Fridge will hang 70 on the Terps if he can.

 

Claim: James Franklin contacted rape victim.

Thank God he is at Penn State so we know we will get to the bottom of this.

 

He's so perfect for that school. They can now continue doing the two things they love: win big and spin alternate realities about coaches.
