My wife's coworker sent her a text with a pic of her kids with CJF. Looks like he was making the rounds in a helicopter and dropped in to see Nick Singleton and Mifflin stomp Harrisburg in Shillington.

Any other confirmed visits lastnight?
 
He just rolled back into State College.

Reportedly, the plan was for him to also attend the La Salle College High vs Haverford School game. Too many other things going on today for me to track down whether he was there or not.
 
bruce feldman just said that cjf would be perfect for usc.

from what I've been reading, it seems like the media are the ones deciding Franklin is the top choice for USC. USC, meanwhile, seems to be after other coaches

I would bet that Cristobal, Fickell, Petersen, Eric Bienemy and maybe even Bill O'Brien are higher on the list

Urban Meyer to USC ....

When Urban Meyer took over the Jacksonville Jaguars, fans expressed their concern about his readiness to lead at the NFL level. Those worries will only be renewed after the first-year head coach had one of his recent comments accidentally revealed.

During a press conference on Wednesday, Vic Fangio shared what Meyer had to say about the caliber of NFL teams following the Jaguars loss this past weekend to the Denver Broncos. The former college head coach apparently said that it’s like playing Alabama every week in the NFL.

“This is the NFL. I don’t know Urban Meyer at all, really, I met him the other day, shook his hand before the game and after the game. And his comment to me was, ‘Every week is like playing Alabama in the NFL.’ That’s it. Everybody’s capable of beating everybody in this league,” Fangio said, via Troy Renck of Denver 7.

The comparison was likely the best way for Meyer to verbalize his thoughts considering he spent nearly two decades at the college level and he probably didn’t expect Fangio to reveal that comment a few days later. Nevertheless, NFL fans and media members were once again concerned that the Jaguars head coach wasn’t fully aware of what he was getting into when he accepted the job in Jacksonville

I think any fan of CFB for more than a decade could have predicted this. Urbs got a call from the Jax owner and was asked to name his price. Who wouldn’t take a guaranteed contract at the numbers Urbs is making?

He could get shit canned tomorrow and walk away with $50 million from this gig. I’d fault Jax more for not having done the research on this. Urbs was never going to succeed in the nfl. Who is the last career CFB “great” coach who successfully moved to the NFL? Jimmy Johnson 30+ years ago? Maybe Rhule will do it in Carolina, but the odds are markedly against him.
