    James Franklin Fired

    By Penn State. That's a big job that just came open. Buyout was 48 million dollars.

    Who does Penn State go after?

    They will look at Mullen but likely not hire.

    They'll consider Kiffen but once their schedule evens out you'll see how much they consider him. It'll be like Mullen when he was here.

    They go with Cignetti.

    I know a lot of PSU alums and they got tired of him never beating OSU, Michigan and now Oregon. He could never win against a top team and they did not see Boise State or SMU as top level teams. He basically was their Dan Mullen with more talent and an easier schedule. Now they run the risk of hiring a Moorhead though and falling to Wisconsin status. Not sure I agree with the firing, but I understand the frustration of a coach not being able to win a big game

    Wow. Talk about a reactionary decision.
    Guess they believe it's never too early to start looking.
    Just who in the hell do they think can do better.

    If they don't have Saban lined up, they're more likely than not to downgrade.

    That is likely what the buyout is if fired- not to take another job. That's probably around 5-10MM

    I'm sure LSU is subliminal ESPing PSU take Brian Kelly please. We will wave any buyout that PSSU might have to pay.
