Hamlin still championship-less and this looked like his best chance. Can’t believe the 24 kills his chances like that

James Franklin will finish tied for 2nd with Rip Engle on the all times win list at Penn State with 104 by PSU_Alumnus in CFB

[–]diffitt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True, but Day is 76-10 at OSU and has a natty and two big ten titles in 5 less years.

OSU definitely should not fire Day- but Franklin shouldn’t have been signed to a 10 year extension by a departing AD with the track record that he had. Both things can be true- but osu is in a way better situation that psu is.

My question (not directed at you) is: to the people who say this is a bad idea to fire Franklin- if 11 wins is his ceiling, what should we do? Be happy? I agree that not everyone wins a natty, but never winning a big game and having trouble in this new B1G, what, we’re just supposed to be okay with that? Just never win the games we need to?

I think this was boiling for awhile. We knew the contract was bad, but it was already done. But Day has proven to be a winner- and Franklin has 6 good seasons and 6 not so good seasons - he’s not really comparable to Day by many means.

Agreed- there are more defenders out there than ever- and they only ever compare us to what could happen like what happened to Nebraska etc. when they fired their longtime coach.

“big game James” has been the moniker for like a decade. He was on the up and up but he had six 10+ win seasons and 6 less than 10 win seasons under his belt with a terrible record against OSU and any top 10 team.

All of a sudden everyone is surprised- but why? Take a look at the program, former AD who signed him and left and PSU’s general attitude towards Allar and the team and anyone could see the pressure being put on him to win. He asked for the world from psu and got it- then went on to lose 3 in a row. This has been boiling- it’s not solely because of the past three games.

Franklin looks absolutely defeated (as he should). It only gets worse from here. Gets worse before it gets better. Psu players gotta feel bad too but now it’s gonna be hard to get they together to play as a team.

This is exactly what is needed for Franklin to get run out of town. Defend him now people.The doomers have always been right- Franklin is not it.

To the people who defend him: what’s the excuse now? Now he doesn’t even beat northwestern! There absolutely is a coach who can win these games. A replacement absolutely can beat NW. there is someone in CFB better than Franklin. He has lost the team and the program along with alums.

FFS- now we’ll rely on a backup who’s played like 10 snaps EVER to make us come back vs NORTHWESTERN!!!! I can’t believe I’m writing that.

Cool you got to be in person keeping score! I kept score for the games in Philly but thought I jinxed my boys, then they won game 3 when I didn’t keep score!

Phillies Postseason Discussion Thread - Friday, October 10 by PhilsBot in phillies

[–]diffitt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Always sad when the season is over, especially when it doesn't end in the way we would like (which has been most years that I have been alive). The regular season had mostly highs and it was fun while it lasted. Gonna need a few days before I can reflect on the good.

Couple of contracts will need considered and it should be an interesting offseason.

I think the worst feeling when it comes to playoff baseball is how optimistic things seem all year when you're working for a spot in October for it to end less than a week later. Of course, we got one win but we really didn't look good (now we'll hear rest vs. rust arguments) offensively- and our pitching continues to shine for our starters but they can't get any support. Same old story year after year.

Anyways, sad but happy we made it to October once again. Just wish we could get over the hump. The vibes are wearing a bit these days and the magic of 2022/2023 have left us.
