From a 247 user:

quote:

This is from Derek who I trust on the same level as Shea/Sonny. Anyways he said that James Franklin is very upset that Bob Shoop is interviewing at LSU, and that if this lingers past this weekend, that this will be dead.

Makes sense. Hope we can hear something before the weekend.

ETA: Another poster chimed in:
quote:

A friend sent this to me earlier.

I understand Franklins frustration but this is part of the cycle. He discovered one of the bright young defensive minds and while he gave Shoop his break, Shoop is not tied to him. LSU would be a huge pay raise and put him in the spotlight.

It wouldn't shock me... franklin is an unprofessional turd... how he could be upset at someone for interviewing given the way he exited Vandy is laughable.

Saw a poster on 247 for LSU say this same thing. Something about recruiting class when he left.


Can you elaborate?

What is "this"? Shoop at Penn? LSU courting him? The interview?

Franklin appears to be well on his way to being considered one of the biggest a-hole coaches in CFB.

The deal for Shoop to go to LSU. Basically, if we don't hear anything before next Monday, Shoop isn't happening and decided to stay at Penn St.

What do you mean "if this lingers past this weekend, that this will be dead." How will it be killed?

That the deal would be dead, and he would stay at Penn St.

Hasn't it been indicated Miles wants his guy in place by this weekend? If Shoop is who Miles wants, then he needs to wrap this thing up. LSU gains nothing by waiting around closer and closer to Jan 15.

Shoop's wife must be an OT 10.

Business is business, James. Don't take it personally.

which might be why Bob Shoop is interviewing at LSU

word was that he reached out to us right after the bowl game. to me, that doesn't sound like a guy looking for leverage to get a raise, its too fast, it sounds like a guy looking for a new job (assuming its true).
