More scandal for Penn St?

Refuses comment? Coward.

Franklin is a first class *** and total DEI hire. If he was an Irish guy named James Franklin with the exact same resume he would have never gotten the job.

Could have at least given the Hogan's Heros comment, ''I know nothing'' but instead has the communications stooge speak for him.

 

[The Reel Ess]

Devil's advocate here. They're former players. Is he required to comment?

I’d also bet he was told not to discuss it by the school’s legal counsel.

This is what immediately came to my mind...... given the past with JoePa, it's probably a contractual thing.

"Answer any question you want but if it's involving any sexual allegations of any kind....keep your mouth shut until the higher ups tell you what to say."

I don't like Franklin either. I think he's a phony. However, to be fair, he does tend to keep his nose clean at Penn St, so...

This requires greater elaboration. Until I see that he's been complicit in hiding something, particularly from the law or school officials, there's really nothing here.
