Didn't Realize Franklin Was That Big of a Loser

[Baseball25]

In his career at Penn State he has played sixteen top five teams. Has lost fifteen of them. 15 out of 16!!

Always had a loser mentality, not a good person at all.

Agree. Some coaches are easy to root for and some I just can't get behind. Franklin is one I have a hard time rooting for.

 

[PandamoniumReigns]

He's scared to win. Plays extremely passive football against top teams.

 

[MiramarVol]

That's why I'm glad we didn't get him as our coach. We would not be close to where we are know with him at the helm.

Look no further than trying to hide a rape by several players while at Vandy. That told me all I need to know about Franklin. Fits in well at Pedophile State. They prefer to hide things too.

Should we question Danny White for even considering him?

No

His only win came as the result of a blocked FG returned for a TD late in the 4th against OSU

Not last night. It could easily be argued that playing aggressive is what cost him that game.

He's never came across as someone

[Ernie McCracken]

GBO

He's an Azz; always has been.

And it's not the worst thing you could say about him

Franklin struts around like the cock-of-the-walk. But he doesn't have anything to strut about. Best team PSU beat this year was SMU. SMU did not play a team ranked in the top 30 in the regular season and lost to both ranked teams they met post-season. Then, he loses to both top-10 teams he faces in the post-season as he clearly gets out-coached in both games. His seat should be getting a little warm.

He just went a round futher then we did. Lost in a close game. Dumb.

They waxed the shat out of two top ten teams. Lost by one possession to Oregon

SMU and Boise?

.... come on. I would have killed to draw either of those teams in our first playoff game.

 

[djwes]

I can’t stand ND but you gotta respect Marcus Freeman. Handles press with class, seems to have that nice balance of being a tough coach, but he cares about his players. Doesn’t come across as selfish or a douche bag at all like some coaches.

James Franklin is truly a miserable human.

 

[LAVol1]

Franklin's best win over the past three seasons was Boise State. That says a lot about his ability as a coach.

 

[Voltopia]

I have no love for Franklin, considering how he ran his mouth at Vanderbilt when the Tennessee game came around, but I think he made the "mistake" of taking on the third best job in the Big 10 - perennially looking up at Michigan and Ohio State.

Sort of like how Tennessee's coaches, from Kiffin to Pruitt, always had to deal with Alabama and Nick Saban every year, out of division, because of the demands of both programs.

 

[DaddyChad]

He tries to find what works then quit doing it. It the same script vs top competition every year.

Boise and SMU. Come on man. Both those teams are getting killed by any other team in the playoffs. We got the worst draw out of the gate; Notre Dame likely is going to prove that in the championship by getting boat raced.
