The Penn St Dumpster Fire Thread

Haven’t looked at this thread for a few days, but I saw one of the clickbait articles throwing Deion Sanders into the mix. Article was blatantly titled like PSU had hired him. Yeah, that would be a huge name hire for them, but definitely not a long term stability hire. Would create recruiting nightmares in the NE for sure. Did I miss all the discussion on this? I’m sure it’s back on page 16 or 17 but I don’t have the time to browse. I don’t see it happening, unless of course

Deion has some pretty serious health issues, who knows if he even coaches another year at Colorado
 
I think Penn State is overvaluing who they can get. I think they will end up with Plan C or worse.

It sounds like Rhule will recommend Fran (unless he is just creating cover for his own move). Not sure how the heck they would sell that. Hey we are throwing away $50M to get rid of Franklin to go hire another recruiter who just went 4-8. So I don't think Fran even gets an interview.

IMO the next Penn State HC will be there only 3-4 years. They are going to be setup to fail. Fran is probably better off being the HC after this next one is gone.
NOW I’m worried

He’s gone
 
Fran is defnitely in the mix for Penn St. They would get Brown, Angeli, Calvin Russel, and Nixon maybe, plus keep a lot of their recruits. I hope its not true but seems like a possibility.
He’s not Just stop it. I try to avoid making categorical statements but there is no way they fired a guy with Franklin’s record for Fran Brown.

The situation here at the end of 23 is light years away from the situation at PSU now. Talent acquisition is not a problem for them. What skills does he bring to the table that were lacking?

I'd think less of him if he even interviewed. It would mean a lot of what he's said since the beginning of coming to Syracuse just wasn't true. It may not be on the level of it being his "dream job" like Doug Marrone, but it would up there with it. If he interviews and doesn't get the job then it means it's just a matter of time, maybe a short time, before he gets another one. It would be greatly disappointing.

I wouldn't.

If you're approached in your own career, it's almost always worth having a conversation.

In the end Doug Marrone made the correct choice. He went NFL and has had success there similar to Syracuse while not dealing with boosters. I think College Coaching (Head Coaching) is a crazy profession. Burnout will be huge and no more than 5-6 years at any school that is a contender. Matt Patricia is at Ohio State as a Defensive Coach/Coordinator. If you want coaching, do HC, then NFL HC and come back to College as an assistant and truly enjoy coaching without having the headaches while collecting a big paycheck. Just like in Baseball, HC is hired to be fired. Players now rule.

The guy beat Miami last year and Clemson this year.

In the last decade Penn State has 2 top 10 recruiting classes. Every other class was ranked 12-21.

Call me crazy but Fran would elevate their recruiting to a level they've never seen in the modern era. He has our current class at #26. At Syracuse

It’s a job, not a personal relationship.
