Their AD made a massive mistake firing Franklin and then thinking they were an elite job.

Them hiring Kelly would be great. Reduces our buyout, he is far away, etc.

They were praying for a Bama loss last night. It seems like that was their only plan.

Guy lost the locker room and was going behind the ADs back for stuff.

Can’t keep a coach like that.

I don’t think anyone has a clue who they are even targeting. They may not even know. Quietest coaching search ever.

Firing Franklin is a great example of why you don’t give into the mob.

Who else is left on their hot board? They might be the true losers of this carousel.

This is some mental gymnastics to think that would've made Deboer head to Penn State. Bama probably wouldn't fire him anyway because they have literally no options right now for coaches that would satisfy them. Don't say Kiffin.

Penn State is a rich college. What this amounts to is it's getting harder and harder for dumpster fire programs even with big money to move coaches in NIL era now. Those coaches see they can win anywhere now so it gives less incentive to jump to a dumpster fire. This is the problem all these universities are running into right now.

Mental gymnastics? Plenty of Penn State insiders this week pointed to the Iron Bowl and Bama losing as their pathway to make a move for DeBoer.

I just can’t see any premier SEC coach taking a Big 10 job save some connection to the school.

DeBoer to PSU seemed very contrived from the outset.

I think it’s been Hartline for a while. Probably just waiting for their season to be over
