Breaking: James Franklin to be named Penn ST HC

[pennstatenut]

He just pulled up the weather report for College Station and said "Fuck it, I'm stayin'!"

Yep, because Texas A&M has a coach.

Hammer troll fail!

If PSU's BOT fucks this up there will be serious hell to pay. it should have been done by now.

same kind of delays we had, I think it's just because the lawyers get involved, all the papers that have to be signed, yada yada. Don't think anything is easy anymore.

They'll get it all signed, t's crossed and i's dotted, and then it will happen.

10 years 50 mil, thats what the Vandy AD reported has offered Franklin..THAT's ABSURD

If that's the case, stay and put down roots in Nashville and become a legend. No way in hell does a smart man pass that up for a "challenge." He stays with Vandy and he achieves Bobby Knight-type status in Nashville. He'll never open a door or pay for a meal again.

Stay James.

Yeah. For a team that pulls in 30-40K people per game, thats just retarded.

Seriously???

VANDERBILT offered 10yrs/50MM...for a FOOTBALL coach?

 

[HammerDown]

Have you ever seen the houses in Belle Meade?

 

[SFNL]

My guess is if thats what Vandy really did offer him, they did it because thats what PSU offered.

 

[SFNL]

Have you ever seen the houses in Belle Meade?

No. Was only there for a few days and was drunk as hell the entire time.

It's only absurd if Vandy can't afford it.

Maybe his continued presence (and winning) will inspire an avalanche of alumni donations and merchandise sales.

In that case, you likely slept in two of them.

Vandy has boosters who sneeze $50M over 10 years.

Pretty fucked up, eh? Yeah... Guy loves his sports. A Pittsburgh native, he got the urge to buy the Buffalo Sabres even though he is a lifelong Pens fan (still has a luxury box in Consol) That wasn't enough though... He decided to donate 102 million towards a hockey venue at PSU and turn them into a real squad. Wouldn't be surprised if hes dangling behind the scenes in this search as well.
