Actually the Redskins cancelled that interview because they felt that they had their man and that their sources told them that Franklin was likely headed to Penn State. That was from 104.5 the Zone on the mid day 180 and 3hl last night. |

Jimmy would meet with his team. He has a bit of class in him. |

Rev, true story…back in the Fred Pancoast era, Vandy was so desperate for fans that they had a promotion with a local bread company(Bunny Bread). You could get a Vandy game ticket inside each loaf of Bunny Bread. |

Legalese: Jimmy Franks has not accepted our "non-offer" and we will not "offer" until he has accepted the job. |

That's what I might think, but it takes quite an extra level of courage to affirm one's loyalty over and over to the players and then bolt on them. Charlie Strong was that type of coach. He talked frequently about his commitment to them, but once the Texas offer was a done deal, he didn't meet with the players. |

IMO it looks like JF will be on West End. again next season. PS boards even saying they think he's not coming. Something I didn't think about.....JF has a big ego....going to Penn State when they are still under huge NCAA sanctions and another 2-3 years of bowl bans doesn't fit well with JFs ego. IMO they will settle with someone who's not a head coach....but wants to be HC bad enough they don't care about the sanctions. |

Jimmy Franks is Penn State bound. Who does Vandy target for their open head coaching position? Mike McIntyre would be my guess. |

Not sure he would leave after 1 year.....Believe it or not, the next coach at Vandy has some shoes to fill. Did I just post that? |

It's true. This is a critical hire if Vandy wants to continue rising. Like Louisville after losing Petrino, they've got to hire a Strong and not a Kragthorpe. |

Strong go down to Lexington and find out how to bolt on his players? Oh, I almost forgot, that guy who's now at Lexington took his recruits with him. |
