Rebuilding a Powerhouse: How James Franklin Is Leading Penn State Back to Glory
Bleacher Report ^ | 8-15-14 | Adam Kramer

Posted on 08/15/2014 9:11:08 PM PDT by FlJoePa

Very long article, so linked.

Actually a very well written insight (especially for something from bleacher report) into James Franklin and his staff. 16 guys that seem to stick together.


TOPICS: Sports
KEYWORDS: football; ncaa; psu
For college football discussion. Is there a college football ping list?

The Penn rate of freshmen enrollment didn’t suffer after that coach was sent to jail? Lucky they have not yet been sued in

You mean the retired coach?

See where I typed “for college football discussion”? Is that not clear enough to you?

It’s obvious you didn’t even think about reading the article, and you have no interest in discussing it. You don’t know Penn from Penn State. You don’t know who James Franklin is.

Why did you post on this thread again?

Penn state is not worth discussing.

That program should have been shut down never to see the light of day again.

This post is garbage.

A very upbeat, optimistic take. Happy days in Happy Valley if it pans out. Time will show.

Isn;t the idea of a nation entranced with college football ridiculous?

If they want respect back then why are they kicking off their season at 8:30 AM vs UCF? I’ve always called that time the desperation hour.

Um. They’re playing in Ireland. I guess that’s why.
