So PSU gives a damn when its PLAYERS are “ alleged” victims of a “sex crime”. Good to know. 🤨

Penn State has been overrated program in the Big Ten. Yes, James Franklin won the Big Ten in 2016. What was his off the field rep at Vanderbilt?

.500 program past two seasons.

Past three seasons in the Big Ten, #5 Minnesota (16-9) over #6 Penn State (15-12). They are #5 over past five years, behind Ohio State, Wisconsin, Michigan and Iowa. Over last ten years, #6 behind #5 Michigan State.

They’re doing pretty well in recruiting this year.

The transfer portal impacted Penn State in 2021. But, that is one on James Franklin to some extent. Like a lot of programs, it can come down to QB holding your team back.

Wisconsin fans are not excited about how Graham Mertz went from highest QB recruit to inconsistent QB.

Sean Clifford is that way for Penn State. Also, the RB room and revolving door of coordinators on offense hasn't helped them at all.

OC Joe Moorhead lead Penn State to James Franklin's best seasons, 2016-17. He lead Oregon's offense, which got a W in Columbus last year.

He is know back as a head coach, which is where Franklin got him, at Fordham. He was 38-11 there. Step up to Mississippi State, as a Yankee was a step too high. He was still 14-12 as an SEC coach.

fwiw

Moorhead is currently the head coach at Akron, not Fordham.

James Franklin hired him from Fordham to be his OC. You are right, he is at Akron.

Franklin has had three OCs in three years. Not ideal.
