Recruiting Forum Football Talk IX

I imagine the conversation will go like this: "Honey, pack the bags. We're going to Europe." "How long?" "Doesn't matter."

I've seen reaches but attempting to get me to feel sorry for a guy who just got paid 57 million dollars to not do a blasted thing is beyond the pale.


do what? these are millionaires. $50 million ****ing reasons that dick head will land on his feet (balls).

It's so tone deaf. There are hundreds of thousands of fans now priced out of going to football games but he expects us to feel sorry for some millionaire coach getting even richer? Absurd.

I'm sure Franklin's 17 and 18-year old daughters will be fine. They've moved before and they are practically adults now. Franklin can buy them a horse or whatever.

I hate it, for them. And I never ever delight in someone losing their job. But give me a ****ing break.

Yeah, I mean cry me a river dude. There's people that just got laid off doing the same thing except with no money to their name.

Everyone on that staff could stop coaching today and get a 9 to 5 in Happy Valley if that's what they really want to do. If not, you knew what you were signing up for in that line of work.

The same way Kiffin does.
Failed with the Raiders
Left UT after 1 year
Failed at USC
Not won Anything at OM yet

People act like he’s won 5-6 championships
Kiffin has perennial loser Ole Miss in the playoff picture every year….Ole Miss. he’s doing more with less and you can easily make the argument that he’s a better coach than Josh.

I think he’s referring to the assistants for the most part. I get what he’s saying, but the same time it’s just part of it as a coach, and just something the families have to understand

My assumption is that the tweet is directed more towards the analysts and support staffs who fall more into the middle class. Anyone with a brain knows Franklin and the on field coaches are perfectly fine if that haven’t been complete imbeciles with their money.

How many playoff appearances does he have compared to CJH? I wouldn't say he's a better coach compared to Heupel. He has had ample resources every single stop he has made, yet hasn't really proven anything as s head coach.

No one has been fired but Franklin. Those assistants are on good contracts too and anyone fired with years remaining will be due the total value of the deal. I'm not telling you not to feel sorry for those guys, I'm just explaining why I do not.

Lol I think they’ll be ok.

Know what real life is? Very few friends are friends for life. There might be one or two people those kids are going to continue to keep in contact with and would have even if they didnt end up moving. Dude got paid 57 mil today. He and his family will be fine. The other coaches will find other jobs. People lose jobs and move all the time. Get over it.

I think they’re talking lower paid assistants and analysts
