Elon, UConn, Ole Missx2, Army, Kentucky x2, Wake Forest, Presbytyrian, Mizzou, Auburn, UMass, and UT. He's winning games, which is more than UT can say, but it's not like the list is all that impressive.

Marcus Elliot on the buzz said he knows who it is and they will be announced Saturday. If he is to be believed.

Franklin would be a great hire for TN.

Dooley would do wonderfully at Hog U.

What's your beef with Franklin? If he can make Vandy the best team in that state, he can certainly do it at Tenner

See his list of wins. It's nothing impressive.
ETA: He's a whiny little bitch and comes up with an excuse for everything. We just got done with Dooley, I want a coach who isn't a total pussy.

Franklin would be a good hire, but I'd rather have Gus.

 Valid point. But I'm still not impressed by him or his pole-smoking demeanor.

Franklin was so good at Maryland they wouldn't promote him and paid his buyout

Anybody who doesn't appreciate the work he's done at Vandy in two years, just isn't looking. It's been there best two year stretch in my lifetime. Guy has done solid things at Vandy, a school with less resources than all the other SEC schools. Would be a great hire, I wish UK would call him.

Wouldn't mind this hire at all. Would prefer Gundy or Patterson but I think he'll do great.

He was an assistant and coach in waiting. Also, look what has happened to Maryland since he left!!! Sort of proves my point.

Sources tell me that Vanderbilt head coach James Franklin is NOT involved in the Arkansas coaching search.

Franklin would be a great hire for the Hogs if true. Had it not been for a couple of lucky breaks last year Franklin would have downed the great Petrino and the Hogs with much less talent. I say bring him on!
