Has worked out great for Nebraska.Never say never...or in this case "PSU is not firing Franklin..."
Nebraska fired Frank Solich with a 753 winning % which is higher that Franklin's - 707%

Who is Abd? And why are we talking about gangster wrongs? And what does any of this have to do with the points that were made?You win the award for best apologist.
“Colossal mess” was only PSU BoT and corrupt politicians. Football program was solid as a rock. Abd did nothing g wrong…in fact followed NCAA and law enforcement procedures to the letter. And won more big games in one year than Franklin has won in his entire career. If the previous regime were not so solid, Franklin would have had nothing to “save” into mediocrity.
Don’t believe me, ask the Lettermen.
Do other state’s governors and AGs go after their flagship universities and fund it in the 2% nationwide?Perhaps the issue is with the flagship university and not the State.
And …jeez…it was pretty obvious.Who is Abd? And why are we talking about gangster wrongs? And what does any of this have to do with the points that were made?
Wasn't there some kind of stat on the broadcast that PSU is like 1-20 (or worse) against top 5 teams in the last 20 years, and Franklin was like 1-11 in his tenure? That'd mean we were striking out against the big boys pretty consistently before he got here. Not that that excuses away anything. Just saying, he's carried on the tradition of underperforming against the big boys, but he's also helped bring us back to well-above-mediocrity overall performances.
I guess we'll just have to live with being a mediocre playoff team. Sigh. It's really terrible. Get the pitchforks.
Wut? I have no idea what you're talking about. Are you OK? Should we send over help?And …jeez…it was pretty obvious.
Playoff team? Is the season over. Competing with our Wars? Yes, the season is over from that standpoint.

Thanks ... now, try to translate the rest into English.let me help you...
"Abd" was a typo it was supposed to be "And". The n and b are keys right beside each other.
Hence the "And …jeez…it was pretty obvious."
That is really easy... You can do that.Thanks ... now, try to translate the rest into English.
2005, 2008....being in the national championship discussion on the last weekend of the season isn't what I'd call mediocreBaloney…PSU spent quite a long time ranked #1 and #2 in late 1990s and performed better than current regime in late 2000s…
I actually can't. You can't either, which is why you refrained from doing so.That is really easy... You can do that.
I am not here for your entertainment nor to do the work you are either too lazy ot stupid to do. It really is simple to figure it out what he was saying.I actually can't. You can't either, which is why you refrained from doing so.
Here ... given what I stated, explain what this means: "Playoff team? Is the season over. Competing with our Wars? Yes, the season is over from that standpoint."
OK, so you couldn't translate what he was saying, and then you went and personally attacked me, despite saying this in another thread:I am not here for your entertainment nor to do the work you are either too lazy ot stupid to do. It really is simple to figure it out what he was saying.
I wasn't arguing with you, despite you thinking everything is an argument.
I am not a fan of name callers. I do not think it adds anything to the conversation and only serves to make the targeted poster angry.
It should have be dealt with the first time he (and others) do that to anyone.
Like I said it wasn't an argument.OK, so you couldn't translate what he was saying, and then you went and personally attacked me, despite saying this in another thread:
Got it. You can see yourself out now, since you're not going to be helpful.
Try to rationalize your hypocrisy elsewhere.Like I said it wasn't an argument.
I didn't call you a name (which is a noun), I described you (which is an adjective) same as if I said you were kind and smart.
Congratulations! You won an argument against someone who wasn't arguing with you.Try to rationalize your hypocrisy elsewhere.
And you're only here to argue. And you still can’t translate the post in question … instead you’re left to hurl insults and name call to cover up that you got called out for your attempts to argue.
I said good day, sir.
Drink a beer!Congratulations! You won an agreement against someone who wasn't arguing with you.

Oh shoot did I call you a name?
I'm such an a$$. Now I've called my self a name....
I'm such a hypocrite. Again what will I do next?
Beating blue hens doesn’t matter, at all, even a little bitHe doesn't win? Thats just bulls hit.
Why does this fan base deserve better? One of the largest alumni bases in the world and our NIL is just barely ahead of WVU. So what makes the fan base so deserving?I believe that James is a good man and overall, a solid representative for our University. He has also done a very good job getting our slow-moving administration to modernize in the college football arms race in terms of NIL, branding, and investment into facilities. He also came into the program at a time where our place in the college football world was a little uncertain. For those things, I will give him a ton of credit and I appreciate what he's done for us.
But this fan base deserves better than 1 - 10 against our biggest rival, and 1-13 against top 5 teams.
I can’t find any lists of NIL. I’m unaware of any. Where did you get this info? Where is the accurate true ranking of NIL for each team?Why does this fan base deserve better?

We say we’d like to see a win. Then were told we don’t deserve it. What does deserve have to do with it? We’d just like to see a win. It’s not wrong to want to see a win.Beating blue hens doesn’t matter, at all, even a little bit
The point you are trying to make is that we should expect to loss against OSU because we aren’t competitive in NIL. I actually agree with you. But Franklin was losing to top 10 teams long before NIL changed the game.Why does this fan base deserve better? One of the largest alumni bases in the world and our NIL is just barely ahead of WVU.

24/7 Sports has us 25th, behind 6 other Big schools.I can’t find any lists of NIL. I’m unaware of any. Where did you get this info? Where is the accurate true ranking of NIL for each team?
Wut? And where the actual fvckkk is that Marshall dude?We say we’d like to see a win. Then were told we don’t deserve it. What does deserve have to do with it? We’d just like to see a win. It’s not wrong to want to see a win.

you probably want to go look that up- including all of the 2000s. following the epic collapse of 1999, the record is pretty unimpressiveBaloney…PSU spent quite a long time ranked #1 and #2 in late 1990s and performed better than current regime in late 2000s…
I’d move to LA in a minute but moms says no wayYou’ve been traded to USC for future considerations.
Well PSU is 1-23 against Top 5 teams since 2000. Which if my math is correct means Franklin has that win. Maybe you should be careful about what you wish for. I recall many of the geniuses on this board clamoring for Lincoln Riley, Matt Rhule and Greg Schiano. How is that working out at those schools?I believe that James is a good man and overall, a solid representative for our University. He has also done a very good job getting our slow-moving administration to modernize in the college football arms race in terms of NIL, branding, and investment into facilities.
