I hate Coach Franklin.......

...but this was pretty cool. I generally find Coach Franklin's PR antics to be pretty toolish, especially when he calls into the radioshows and *****es like a sore-loser.

That being said, the video below is pretty badass. If he ever figures out how to do more of this and less of his *****ing, he could be a pretty awesome coach.

Every school does this if there are scholarships available. Its just Vandy is the only school that videos it for publicity.

This is great for the walk on. But I'll be more impressed by the coach when he has to decide between a kid like this or a top recruit.

I guess they thought they should celebrate before the season starts. They won't have much to smile and laugh about in a few weeks.

ROFL!!!!!

Either way, Vandy is still Vandy and Franklin can lick my nuts. Him and cracker jack Cal should both move to Egypt. I can't decide which coach I dislike more.

I'll probably never say another good thing about James Franklin, but this was pure awesomeness.

If Franklin ever gets over .500 he won't stay at Vandy.

Yes Franklin is a media whore but what he did just saved that boy $60,000. Hate to admit it but I applaud him for doing that and presenting it in front of his teammates.

I was hoping this Franklin fad was just fade away early this year but after looking at their schedule, I'm afraid it aint happening their OOC features two creeeeaaamm puffs (Presbyterian & UMass) then two question marks (Vanderbilt-north & Vanderbilt-east aka Northwestern and WF). Both finished 6-7. Hopefully one of those will pull off a W. After that, nothing is guaranteed. We'll have to hear this Vandy nausea until Ga comes in and shuts them the f up.

Good motivator, sure. Too early to say he's a good coach. It isn't like he beat any great teams last season.
