James Franklin on the USC rumors. "It's that time of year where all these types of things happen. We're focused on Maryland completely, 100 percent. I don't think it's fair or right to even be talking about that job. We're completely focused on Maryland."

I'm not sure what else you'd want him to say. If he flat out denies any desire to go to SC, people will quote Saban in Miami.

His words were going to be dissected and over-analyzed, regardless of what his answer was.

True, but the PSU board I read is freaking out a bit

Insiders there are silent

Good. Maybe this leads to PSU crapping the bed this weekend and Maryland getting bowl eligible.

Yeah, and with this possibility, there is actually nothing now that we can infer from what a coach says. I wish people would stop trying.

In the current Rivals top 100, 17 of them are from California schools.

He probably said it this way because Helton hasn't even been fired yet. The Southern Cal job is not vacant. The whole "don't talk about another man's job" thing.

He may prefer to live in warm sunny SoCal than a cold dark holler.

He doesn’t have to live at usc.

He can buy a house several miles away.

How much would a helicopter used as a daily commuter cost? If I'm Saban, I would probably take the USC job for $10MM if they could throw this in so I could live wherever I wanted in LA
