Cecil will be in PF's studio for an hour starting at three. Should be interesting. Tony Franklin is on in a minute...will be interesting to hear his thoughts on Kodi Burns and Chris Todd.

Apparently, Franklin plans on writing a book about his experiences at auburn. Should make for good reading.
I guess that's what you get when you hire a guru. He sold DVDs of his "method" out of his trunk. Now, he can stack the books right there by them...

I think Franklin got a raw deal at the barn. He wasn't allowed to have any assistants familiar with his offense to install it. If hiring him was forced upon Tubby by Dye, the whole staff was probably working against him the whole time. Hardly a recipe for success.

Agreed. I don't think Franklin is a bad coach...just the wrong choice for Auburn at the time. I'm not sure any coach could've succeeded in that environment with the talent he had to work with. Of course, none of this is keeping me awake at night, either. :tongue:
