If so, he Kiffin'd Vandy to a harder degree than Lane did UT. At least Lane had the decency to give a half-assed midnight press conference.

No. We are still reeling from the effects of Kiffin

I have no hard feelings towards Lane Kiffin anymore. He left us, but we may have gotten in some serious trouble with the NCAA for his recruiting tactic$. He got what he deserved, an embarrassing fail at a top 5 job in the country.

 

[RockyTop411]

According to penn state website and vandys (message board) hes on his way with his family to happy valley

Link please. Not doubting you, just want to see this for myself.

Apparently he left nashville with his family for their vacation home in destin Florida. Penn state officals picked him up in Florida. Also sounds like all the NFL interviews were just bs

It's alright buddy thanks though. I believe you're reading it, but do you think that's really happening? Sounds a little fishy.

I have no idea if it is or not just posted what they are saying. I do believe coach franklin is at the point of no return as far as leaving vanderbilt goes, hes put his name out there way too much to turn back now. I do know that there is no interview with the redskins though that was confirmed earlier

Just when I thought a fan base couldn't get any more desperate... This is comical. Please read.

According to the Vandy beat writer, he is out of town with his family. It was supposedly planned.

Vandy AD David Williams updates James Franklin’s status as of Wednesday night | Vanderbilt

I don't agree. We had three different coaches within 3 years with 3 different philosophies. Kiffin stayed one year and carpet bombed our program when he left. Franklin would have stayed 3 years and will leave Vandy in much better shape than Kiffin left UT's program. It's not even close.

 

[volnpowell]

Question: When was the last time Vandy fired a coach as opposed to them leaving for a better job?

Woody Widenhofer is last I can think of.

Only the finest available, it is Vanderbilt after all.

 

[RiseToTheTop]

all this talk about a flight from destin to state college has vandy boards melting down big time. kinda funny. penn state and vandy are even tracking the flight.

Oh yeah. In terms of program devastation, you're absolutely right. Wasn't trying to make that comparison.

I mean his departure would be even scummier than Kiffin's.

 

[rocketskates]

Wish he would have stayed so we could beat him next year. I'm not a fan that hopes Saban, Franklin etc leave. I want Tennessee to simply be the best, not be a product of everyone else around them getting worse.

He lost to Dooley, man. And he barely squeaked by a Josh Dobbs lead Tennessee team. They've hit their ceiling, they're only going to get worse from here, with or without Franklin.

This one is priceless, guys:

"Dude, you're wound up tighter than a snare drum on Veterans Day. You drank the kool-aid like everyone else and now it's time to pay the bagpiper to take out the dog.

The worst part won't be his leaving, it will be watching his presser at PSU where he trots out the exact same tired "I'm honest, loyal, and this is my family" shtick (oops, sacrilege again?) that he used here, only with an even more manic crazed tempo and an even more uneven attempt at creating the appearance of off the cuff humor which is tiresome, tone deaf and obviously rehearsed not to mention completely unfunny.

Remember this classic: "We'll even have time to tour the Navy Pier before the game and really enjoy Chicago." Pause. Crickets. Press question: "really?" CJF: Manic forced laugh. Press members: nervous mummers, tentative chuckles.

Whew. Breakups are hard.

Uh, if he stays I didn't post this. Some guy in an orange onesy hacked my account and posted this. If he stays" (http://mbd.*************.aspx?s=189&f=1603&t=12565011).

THIS JUST IN: Penn State has offered head coach job to Vanderbilt coach James Franklin. A decision is expected Thursday. (via @timestribune)

Vandy's Rival's writer pleading to keep James Franklin. Kind of a depressing (yet true) article if you read it all the way through.

Oh well!

 

[Nerd-Vol]

Ut needs him gone so we can beat vandy.

 

[SEC-GoalTenda]

He gone. Harbaugh to Vandy.

 

[90 Vol]

Ut needs him gone so we can beat vandy.

We don't need Franklin to leave to beat Vandy. We just need to stop sucking. I think we curb stomp Vandy next year with or without Franklin.

This years team could beat the 4th best team in the nation in SCAR but they can't get past the 25th? Franky was in our player's heads.

I hope you're right though.

Go vols!

 

[TNVolunteers]

now ESPN (joe schad) reporting he has not been given a formal offer but is the leading candidate

No, Frank wasn't in their heads. UT had a true freshman backup QB that threw early picks and they shut him down and tried to beat them running the ball. It had nothing to do with any in your head idiocy.
