James Franklin Tweets Poorly Worded PSU Recruiting Picture

That's sure to get all the recruits to sign with Penn State. :biggrin:

HAHA..Whoever designed the picture & then whoever approved the pictured really should be reassigned to different jobs or just plain fired..LOL

Maybe he thinks he's still at Vandy!

GrayTide · Mar 31, 2016

Franklin won't be around Happy Valley much longer. He is a loser.

He keeps proving that he is not ready for the big time.

Barring a miraculous turnaround, this will be his last year at Penn State. Repeated 7-6 seasons would be fine at Vandy, but not in Happy Valley.

Redwood Forrest · Apr 2, 2016

He seems to be in over his head in the big time. This is not his first misstep.

Just makes me appreciate Bama's in house design team that much more...

By Franklin's "screening" criteria, the graphic designer must've had a hot wife to get the gig...

I get the point they were trying to make, but it is funny.

Coach Franklin , I got a wide receiver prospect who see double so he's lucky to catch the ball 50% of the time, but he is off the chart of body language!!

I think he make it personally. Think of what he came to, the perception and probation. This is why Frannie left

Not at 7-6. Now his QB is gone too, where do you see him getting better?

Tidewater · Apr 3, 2016

That reminded me if the Tennessee poster on the door to the practice field that said, "Opportunity is Nowhere." The double doors split the Now here" into "Nowhere."

I think he is a good coach, flat out in a vacumn. Circumstances aside, if you give him time with the probation and QB situation he will be better than what else they can get. He is a little egg headed being a Ivy grad, but I was impressed what he did at Vandy, and considering what Penn State was facing when he got there.........he needs 5 years to prove himself. Why not? What is so bad with 7 wins for a few season's considering the nasty nature of the bigger picture? It has to more than wins and losses right now, at least for a few years. And I think he is a good guy for the job. Don't forget the bigger picture od the shambles of Penn State. Only SMU was worse.

Yeah, Sabanizer, you must've been thinking of Shoopy the Eli - for whom "Opportunity is Nowhere" (er, Now Here) in Pukesville.

What he did at Vandy appears to bring in highly talented trouble makers that either got arrested, bolted when he did, or got kicked off the team by Mason.

Franklin was able to take the reigns of Vandy in era where the three historic powers in the SEC East (Fla, Ga, UT) were at rock bottom relative to recent history or chronically underachieving and put a decent 3 year run together. I'm not sure Franklin is the guy to make Penn State a nationally relevant power. It will a take a Coach Saban-esque "process"--not shortcuts--to get them out of the wilderness.
