I wish it would happen. Shane go to VT. We hire James Franklin. Id take it. Franklin would win 7-9 games a year consistently. Beamer has been okay, 2 good seasons, but the inability to get OL play has cursed the program. We need a fresh start, especially when Sellers and Dylan are gone after this year.

Napier wouldn’t be bad either!

Disagree. I would keep Shane but get Donati to find an OC with the most consistent high-powered offense and pay them whatever it would take. That was a bad call. I believe it was the punt before Love had nobody around him & could have run for 1st down but didn`t have the option or didn`t see it. The play call I was the most upset about was when we had 3rd and a foot for a TD. Why not sneak it with Sellers? Instead we lose 3 yards.

There are going to be more big jobs opening up between now and the end of November. Might be better to wait a year.

Va. Tech not that dumb. They can see everything that has happened at SC. Shane is and was always out of his depth.

No to Franklin. If you can`t get it done at Penn St. then wouldn`t happen here. Who wouldn`t take Saban but not gonna happen. Keep Beamer but hire best OC, with a high-powered offense, after the season. Not gonna get anyone during the year anyway but lets see what happens.

I hear you, but as we speak the job at SC is not open.
Even if it did become open, there are 2 open jobs that are the front runner for Mr.Franklin job skills.

If we have any leaders who are thinking strategically, we are making inquiries through back channels.

This is, frankly, a once in a lifetime opportunity for an AD. Coaches of Franklin's caliber are very rarely, if ever, on the market.

Oh. In that case anyone who is nervous about a Franklin hiring can rest easy.
