The year after being in the playoffs & winning two playoff games?

He's had a tough two weeks but that would shock me. He needs Dabo's PR and agent who is having a similar year.

Franklin just got a helluva payday.  $50 million buyout is what I saw.

[Barton Fink]

Gonna be a wild coaching off-season

This is the new reality of college athletics...when you are flipping rosters every single season it's bound to happen that you are going to turn in a turd.

Dan Mullen is from Penn and somewhere in the back of my mind Penn State was interested in him in 2011.

If memory serves, he pursued it hard while still at Miss St, but didnt get it.

Gonna be much harder to sustain success.

They probably believe the Drew Allar hype is still real

There's plenty of good coaches.  What is franklins issue to force this instead of riding it out?  Shitty play in NIL?  Drunkenness?  Fucking little boys?  That's a huge hit and the price will be higher on a new dude. 

Some of these openings will go to retreads or one hit wonders that flop.  Most of these old coaches aren't hip to nil the portal and new approaches to highly paid teenagers.  If bmfp doesn't like his chances in Fayetteville he could jump. 

The hot ticket this year will be Cignetti if things continue as they are.  He has a long contract and likely an ugly buyout.  Auburn will go after him I believe.

In olden times new coaches got five years to succeed with their players and staff.  Portal and nil make that antiquated. I would go short term. 3 years, bigger salary and lesser buyout.

These dumbass AD's giving ridiculous buyouts is what is nuts.  I realize they have to be competitive to get good coaches, but $50M and Jimbo's $75M or whatever it was, is ridiculous.

[piglosopher]

Use to be, these ridiculous contracts are to say "you'll get your 5 years if you come here" and tells recruits you'll be committing to a guy for your whole college career.

But NIL and transfer portal changes all that. You can flip (or flop) a roster in an off season. Schools are firing their "commitment" coaches anyway and eating the buyout.

I don't know what point I'm trying to make , just reiterating the obvious craziness and shifting paradigms that is college football.

The current system does not benefit anyone.

[vegashog]

looks like their biggest donor, who owns the bills and sabers, dropped the check.

[Natty_Ice]

The current system does not benefit anyone.

Benefited Franklin's agent, accountant, and financial adviser 

[Pig Benis]

The current system does not benefit anyone.

I assume the players would disagree.

[vegashog]

guess who his agent is, lol.

[Barton Fink]

I assume the players would disagree.

Some

[Pig Benis]

But this is what they wanted, right?

[RPL]

I figured there would be a change at Pedo State at the end of the season, not now.  Not sure what firing him now could do.

We did that, but we had a head coach on the sideline waiting...

I'm going to assume losing to UCLA and Northwestern doesn't bode well for the remainder of their Big 10 schedule.
