Yeah he actually produced multiple really good seasons and got his team to the playoffs and our AD and boosters still hoping and praying for Hugh to finally win 1 SEC game smh. We got idiots in charge of the program breh :snoop:

But CFB is a copycat league they might see PSU fire Franklin and that might inspire them to go ahead and get rid of Freeze to springboard the next hiring process
Y'all AD and Boosters gotta chill

It's well past the point where you can wave around his win/loss record. He's not a good coach and his teams are regularly outmatched when playing similar competition levels. And it's clear the team simply gave up this year the minute they realized it wouldn't be a cake walk back to the playoffs. Oregon loss was predictable for the reasons mentioned...he wasn't going to get fired over that. But to lose to a god awful UCLA team and then have zero passion against a meh team yesterday? Nah.

I'm sure he'll go somewhere with less expectations and a big NIL bag, where he'll win 8-10 games a year and fail to win any big games or conference titles.

The bolded is an outrageous statement and a downright lie. You can say he's not a top-tier coach or an elite coach, but there are really only a handful of those guys anyway. Good coaches don't help resurrect a program and accomplish what he did.

Bringing up something a coach did over 10 years ago at a completely different school is not an effective reason to not fire him today.
I think a change of scenery will be good for him. Not a school at rock bottom like Oregon State, but a team that will finish with something like 3 or 4 wins. Since he has SEC ties, I can see Arkansas giving him a call

He’s not a good coach

Good coaches win big games.

You completely missed or ignored the context of the previous conversation. Someone said James Franklin isnt a good coach. That's why he mentioned Vanderbilt.
