Coach Franklin

[jhawkinaz]

he is such an ass.....really dislike the guy. even giving backhanded compliments in the post game.

I am old enough now where I can appreciate that ballgame for what it was, a really exciting game that didn't turn out the way I wished it would. And I give PSU credit.

But after this game, and season, and many more seasons are over.......Franklin will still be ass.

 

[reotto]

The #2 ranked RB in the country is committed to Penn State, so good luck with that prediction.

SB is an every ten years back. No guarantee the #2 back this year could hold SB's jock. You should learn the recognize and appreciate the talent you have now.

 

[Hawkfan5220]

Feel bad for Barkley. Surrounded by dbags Franklin and Mcsorley. Barkley is a stud.

This.

Penn State is looking toward the future with young kids... James Franklin is a worse version of joepa

 

[Hawkfan5220]

Feel bad for the iowa team ... after a large percentage of your fans calling psu "Ped state" all week ... got what you deserved. (mike dropped)

Annnd go F yourself, plenty of us Iowa fans were also calling out people to quit with the Pedo shit.

 

[biggreydogs]

They had to come back out for the snap. It's not like it was Franklin's call. And yeah I kinda agree about trace..he shouldn't have punted the ball...but it's not like he was high stepping or anything..

It was worse. He needs to be a marked man. I would Head hunt him.

I would much rather lose one close football game than have my school known as Child Molester U for eternity.

Mic dropped idiot!!!!

 

[Nitwit]

That's a good question. But Ferentz couldn't get out of that handshake quick enough. You never see Ferentz do this no matter what happens in the game.

I think Ferentz was just upset that he lost.

Along with everyone in your fanbase who loves pedophile jokes.

 

[Samurailion]

Great game iowa. Unreal atmosphere, absolutely love the wave to the children's hospital (that is special!) hard fought game that could've gone either way! FYI I have been a member of our rivals board for 16 years, some of the "psu" guys on here, I have never heard of. Good luck the rest of the way.

First thing he said was to give credit to Iowa and the great atmosphere. What would you prefer he say, that the Hawks choked with the game on the line? I suppose tough losses bring out the worst in some message Board posters. It's just a football game. Good luck the rest of the season.

What's your opinion of the McSorly punt at the end?

Jeebus, how is he an ass already?? Guy always gives the opposing teams major props, win or lose. That includes the loss in the Rose Bowl.

 

[Nitwit]

What's your opinion of the McSorly punt at the end?

He was wrong to do it, and apologized In the post game interview. McSorely is a hothead sometimes. When you win you should act like you've been there before.

 

[VaLion'92]

What's your opinion of the McSorly punt at the end?

Didn't like it. I also don't like the high stepping. These are 18-22 year old kids getting caught up in the emotion. Let's leave the coaches out of it.

 

[birthhawk]

See, this is what gets you PSU fans in trouble, your inability to see the faults of your coaches in an objective way.

It leads to Sandusky.

Immature reaction.You don't about any kids. You care your team lost. It's ok to admit it.

Thanks, didn't think we had a chance, first half hurt us, we had our chances at the end but were too gassed. Also every fan base has idiots, wish some of ours would quit the whole Pedo crap.

He said that Iowa played unbeleivably well, and that PSU didn't play the way they wanted to.

Wait, what on Earth has Franklin done to be compared to that creep? Personally, I question Franklin's calls, and yeah he can be rah rah, but again, what has he done to disrespect his opponents? He has his faults I'm sure. Who doesn't?

 

[reotto]

Really? What was Akron comment last week referencing Pitt?

Remind me again how that is respecting an opponent.

He has been clear on one point - he wants his assistant coach's wife's to be hot, because a non-hot wife is a clear problem. That says a lot about what Franklin is.

Iowa got phucked tonight. No ifs. No ands, no buts.

 

[Nitwit]

I sense some jealousy among apposing fan bases who now see PSU among the elite again and likely to remain there perennially given the strength of Franklin's recruiting. He's accomplished an amazing feat in a short time without sacrificing the academic standards of the student athletes who enter the football program. And he's gotten tremendous support of the 108,000 who come to the games and enjoy the best atmosphere in college football.

 

[VaLion'92]

That was totally taken out of context. Meaning, like Akron, Pitt was the next team on the schedule. Totally better than what Narduzzi did/said after Pitt beat Penn State 42-39 last season.

Besides, honestly, Akron probably could beat Pitt right now

Nope; Narduzzi is not involved here. You said he always respects opponents.

Unless we are talking about 3 year olds arguing over a toy then I could care less who said what first.

Franklin is pompous ass, and his comment was not misconstrued. He smirked after he said it.

We don't like penn st you don't like Iowa, your not gonna get hawk fans to agree with you, go enjoy this win on your own board and let this thread die!!!

 

[reotto]

Did he really say that?

Yes; it shows a man who doesn't take no for an answer and I need recruiters like that I believe was the rest of it.

I'm sure the icing the kicker time out last week has a good explanation, too. Rationalize, rationalize.

 

[Blue_J]

That Ferentz is a sore loser?

Great game.

Ferentz is all class. Franklin is a little bitch. But I wouldn't expect a psu fan to recognize class. I mean we're talking about a psu fanbase that still worships a pedophile enabler.

 

[ATLPSU1]

And JoePa is Satan's bitch. Down in hell where he belongs.

Why are you posting on the Iowa free board dipshit?why do you care what we think? We hate penn state go enjoy your win on YOUR board.

 

[CampbellLION]

Franklin is abusing that kid and taking years off his Pro Career

This was the first game of his career that PSU rode Barkley the way they did tonight. But when he's getting 7 yards every time he touches it, kinda hard not to keep doing it

Wasn't he on the hot seat less than two years ago? Now tremendous support? I am not a huge ferentz supporter but do think he represents the university well - with that said I think he has tremendous support from a large percentage of the fan base and university, his contracts say as much as well as support over seasons that are subpar - two rough seasons and franklin is fired
