    One potential concern with the new regime….

    Franklin was a 12-15 recruiter. No reason to think Campbell will not be as good. PSU has fans, facilities, DEEP pockets.... absolutely no reason we would not get good classes. Campbell is said to build more from less. I would say PSU has much more than Iowa State to draw kids in...

    Today's games make me realize just how far Penn State...

    Is recruiting a top 10 class every year as important now since we have the portal? Certainly getting top talent is important but you can also draft if you have the money. I think recruiting is a problem at PSU but we also have no identifiable scheme, poor game day coaching, lack...

    Today's games make me realize just how far Penn State...

    It also puts us behind the top 10 teams which seem to consistently beat us for the last 10 years as evidenced by our record in top 10 games. I would also add crappy game day decisions, preparation, coaching, high school game plans, and stupid play calling in crucial times. Other than...

    Today's games make me realize just how far Penn State...

    Should we really be surprised. Recruiting was 12-15.... almost every year. Not top 5 or 10. Limited player development, no game plan or game day coaching... and we end up where we are... balls across the nose

    Next coaching candidates

    What has been lacking at PSU forever. It is awful to watch PSU be so soft. The identity of the program has been lost... I liked PSU being hard nosed... tough on the ball... and kick ***....... now we are just a bunch of weak *** furries

    Nice open job interview by Franklin.

    Saban would not put up with any of what happened at PSU.... excuses... record against to 10, players celebrating over average plays, lack of discipline, lack of execution, details... all of it.... Saban can say all he wants (and I like Saban) but he would not put up with any of the crap at PSU...

    Next coaching candidates

    Agreed... Rhule doesnt seem like an upgrade.... because.... HE IS NOT AN UPGRADE. Thank you for stating this. Rhule has not done anything spectacular. If he was not a PSU alum... everyone would be mispelling his last name.

    Franklin will break his silence on Saturday

    Franklin will say the right things on Saturday. Everyone will be impressed. He will rehearse his talking points. People will point out all the wins. Everyone will think PSU is stupid for getting rid of him.....and then after it is all over and Franklin is gone... his top 10 record will be...

    Franklin Fired -It’s over...

    The overall toughness of the team is sad. I dont see Franklin as tough or hardnosed and the team reflects it. No one is afraid of PSu on Defense... or offense for that matter. Too much concern with dancing and less with hitting. The older experienced guys getting penalties at late...

    This Is Not PSU FB.

    Franklin has been the coach for a long time..... a long time in coaching cycles. When he was hired he was given a chance and everyone said he needs a chance to recruit....ok... then he needed a chance to recruit "his guys"... then he needed to get "his staff" in place.... then is was he needed...

    Jed Donahue

    Nico is one of the fastest, most elusive guys on UCLA as evidenced by his full year tape at Tennessee. DDS or Deluca can not going to cover him. Spice Adams has a better shot. The whole country knows this except for PSU. Wheatley would have been a perfect spy and should have been ready for...

    In What Universe Reality Could We Beat OSU?

    This game lines up to be an embarrassment for PSU. If PSU does all the things mentioned above on Offense and Defense, we have a chance. OSU is going to be 2 steps faster than UCLA, their defense under Patricia looks better than expected, and their new QB with 5 starts is rolling. The are...

    I don't normally watch these, but this week's PC might be a good one if they have it....

    The thing about these Franklin teams is they dont seem to improve over the season. I see little if any improvement from game 1 to game 5. With UCLA we have stepped back. No big jump between game 1 and 2 like other teams. Teams play us better at the end of the season because we do the same...
