Who's Worse? Schiano or Franklin

[MiramarVol]

So, if it had to be one, who'd it be? I know Schiano was tarred and feathered before and now seems like Franklin has some traction. So, will Franklin get Schiano'd by Vol nation?

 

[NighthawkVol]

If Tennessee fans have an issue with Franklin being our coach, they're crazy.

He will not. I think he will have enough support by people who are sick of losing. I'm not one of those people. I am sick of losing but I have my limits.

Apples and oranges but this poll is pointless

the Schiano thing also dealt with kids so there’s that

If our fan base were to trash Franklin like we did Schiano we might as well shut down our program because the idiots don’t realize that’s prob as good as we can get considering the state we are in (not counting how bad the ncaa will likely come down on us)

Franklin is a winner like it or not . He's a winner!

It has nothing to do with winning. It has nothing to do with if he's a competent coach. That's not my problem with him.

 

[Volbrando]

Just curious...how many of you against Franklin want Freeze or Kiffin? I bet some of you don’t know what all ol Kiffy has done.

Unfortunately, I think all of this is falling on deaf ears.

I just can't get behind Franklin. Hes a winner, but a scumbag.

Well, it's never been reported that Kiffin covered up gang rape, so there's that

 

[VolArmy74]

Schiano is a much worse coach, a much worse locker room cancer. Not really sure what else is relevant in their history.

 

[VolArmy74]

Well, it's never been reported that Kiffin covered up gang rape, so there's that

It's never been reported Franklin did either.

 

[FLVOL_79]

Schiano is a dumpster of loser hot garbage.

Franklin is a douche canoe but wins.

 

[SAPPER 5]

Take out the supposed ethical questions, that leaves wins and losses. Schiano is low-level b10 trash. If these are my choices, bring Franklin to Knoxville TODAY.

Are you even serious with this poll? Come the hell on.

look, support who you want just don't scream at people that do not support the hire. I have my reasons and you have yours

 

[VolunteerHillbilly]

Odd that a lot of the people who were tooting Elliott's horn the loudest are now blowing Franklin's. I don't really see those two as similar coaches.

 

[VolArmy74]

The first link is actually a positive article about Franklin. The 2nd and 3rd are the same player saying both things, the player just happens to have a lawsuit filed against Penn State. The situation was investigated by State College authorities and nothing was found.

 

[PNW Huskie]

Franklin is SCUM! Don't let him anywhere near the Vols!

 

[Volbrando]

Only some of our TN fans in our current situation would say:
“Franklin has no integrity....bring in Freeze or Kiffin!”

We not about to “Schiano” James Franklin.

True. There is no comparison, as this is a false choice to begin with.

I'm just saying you're lying about the man and in one of the most vile ways you can lie about him if you're saying he covered up gang rape. The DA in the case went out of his way to point out that Franklin in no way interfered or hindered the investigation in that case.
