They clinched their spot in the conference championship game weeks ago.I think Chesney could have asked to wait to see how their conference ends up. Would JMU make conference champ game, etc.
New coach
- Thread starter NOYDB
- Start date
Are you saying Franklin is a much better recruiter than smith? Not exactly a selling point for Smith.
We are the only school whose coach has a new job.
That’s right. I was thinking Tulane, North Texas, Navy. Navy loses out on some tiebreaker unless either NT or Tulane lose today.

I don't disagree. DeBoer is a fine coach. I don't think Alabama loses to Auburn, and if they do, it is not like Franklin's decades of losing big games.
Like I said the other day, I don't see what's really in it for him other than $15 MM. He's already pulling down 10.25. It's Alabama for crying out loud.
Another miss by Kraft.

Stanford names former QB Tavita Pritchard head coach
Stanford hired Tavita Pritchard as the school's next head coach, the school announced Friday.

The last recruit holding strong to Penn State, Jackson Ford, is visiting Virginia Tech this weekend.
As I said, Franklin will be a thorn in PSU’s side recruiting at VT.
Probably. Less so moving forward but this year will be staggering. Perfect storm for him.

Lane Kiffin still undecided on future, to decide Saturday
Lane Kiffin said he will decide Saturday whether he will return as Ole Miss' coach in 2026 or take another job, presumably at LSU.

But once his 4* recruits get his tutelage they'll regress and then portal (portal is no longer just a noun or adjective)

Antimarino won 3 WPIAL title games and tied in 2 others to be co-champions. They were all before the state playoffs were created. A shame for the school as that was their heyday athletically (and academically).
I do not see listings on this chart related to when Gateway won 2 title games in the later teens after Coach Smith was no longer there.
Well, he has a sub .500 record in both cfb and NFL. Smith is just sub .500 in cfb right now. I know one of those three is at least over .500.
Add in relatively minimal time associated in the college game the past half dozen seasons, please no to KK.
These newer names tossed about the past day or so are disappointing to hear. The BYU guy may have interest if they get miss out of CFP invite again, but would he be a fish out of water in this region? Would he really be a better option than Chesney?
He’s an equal/better option than Chesney.
He’s a better option than Smith.
My opinion, ymmv.
What time does Kiffin announce he is coming to Penn State?
I’m kiffing. I hope he stays at Ole Miss.

it also makes sense if Bobby Engram came in this week for an interview. I imagine he wants Bobby on his staff.
I would take Chesney every day of the week over Kingsbury. In fact I’d take Chesney over all the names being thrown around other than KDb
Whoever gets him is getting a star

Remains to be seen. What is happening now is under a unique set of circumstances …
I have to hand it to Kraft…he has been very crafty (sorry) by keeping the search close to the vest, no leaks etc. I can only hope he hits a home run whoever that might be!
I would also want to keep it close to the vest if I continued to strike out.
Saw where Jackson Ford met with Kraft recently. Am I the only one beginning to wonder if the real reason Penn State has had so many de-commits compared to other schools who fired coaches is that he isn’t convincing them he will make a great hire and that the program will be just fine and also that he may have overestimated how well Penn State “recruits itself” in this age where virtually every school is on TV each week and has lots of NIL money to spend.
“How do you know the next coach will want you to sign there?” from a coach you already have rapport with and trust will be heard 10000% louder than anything the AD could ever say to a kid.
I'm praying for a few more zeros on that salary line.“I've got to do some praying and figure this thing out."

It means he is the odds on favorite from multiple unreliable sources.
I'm amazed at the absolute crazy things people have been saying about this search.
There is only one so called HR left on the board. What are the odds of landing him.
