Prolly gets more for making the 12 team playoff than making the 4 team because, you know, more teams 🙄.

I'm unsurprised at this development. More surprising to me is that PSU would actually rename their Personnel Administration department to Equity and Human Resources, placing preferential emphasis on Equity.

Equity >>>> Humans as a Resource.

Franklin did a pretty good job this year. Still wish PSU beat OSU, but they won several close games. They’re in the playoffs. He’s a consistent recruiter. I look at the number of 4 star and above compared to other teams. PSU typically gets a good amount of 4 and above, comparable to top 10. They also take a lot of 3 stars which is smart if they are actually 4 star talent that was unrecognized by evaluating services. His pay is reasonable. Both parties locked into a long term contract to minimize perceived risk. So Franklin won’t get a huge windfall and go to number 1, but he won’t get burned either.

Serious question: why? Paying CJF more isn’t by itself going to keep PSU in the Top 10. NIL money is.
I was just stirring the ****. All you have to do is mention James and contract to start a stampede. On a serious note, I don't think they can let him slip below #15.
If and when he leaves, do you think PSU will pay less than they are paying Franklin?

I think Kraft should deduct pay for the OSU game commensurate with his new playoff money. Call it even. 🥸

He's having a better year than 7 of the 12 coaches paid more than he is. Do you give him more money for that? Same principle.

Are you saying I don’t have to work, just show up and get raises?
An employer doesn't increase your compensation in the hopes of making you a better, more productive employee. The employer offers to increase your compensation in recognition of your demonstrated productivity and is acknowledging your value ( because he knows your value in the market place). While a "raise" may not make you a better employee it has been demonstrated that an employee that feels appreciated will in fact be more productive.

As a PSU fan, I was so "appreciative" of Franklin's predictable performance vs. OSU. :rolleyes:

That game was so winnable, yet BGJ managed to F it up at home. 🤷‍♀️

When my employees ask for a raise I tell them there is a lever under their chair for that.
