I’d be willing to trade….

Are you intentionally ignoring the past two years or...
The Covid year should be ignored by everyone. Especially in the BIG , as they f’ed it up worse than most. (SEC was closest to normal….and even IT wasn’t normal). Completely anomalous. — We were top 5 last year going into Iowa, and doing well against them, until Clifford was lost for the year. With plan “B” transferring to the SEC, it was a single point failure. —Both years had extenuating circumstances . Nothing normal about them

Covid year was the Big, the state of Pa, and Franklin’s daughter having sickle cell putting her at higher risk.

And last year was both Clifford playing injured and losing Mustipher on the D line.

All teams deal with stuff--his job is to overcome those obstacles and he failed. There's not ignoring any season. None. 2020 & 2021 count. He needs to build on 2022 which he lived up to expectations and start beating Michigan and Ohio State on a somewhat consistent basis--not both each year but he has to start splitting those games the majority of the time and that also means beating Ohio State way more often
 
This game is going to be a seminal moment for Franklin. If we see improvement in what the game plan is on both sides and that the team is highly prepared and ready for the Utes, then I see a very strong upside to the next few years. But if we see dumb calls, poor time management, and a beat down, then I think the ice will thin very quickly, regardless of his contract. Will be very difficult for Penn State to fill seats and beg for stadium renovation funding with the same old outcome against ranked opponents.
LOL 9 more years and 63 million.

He and the admin have now planted the seeds of the future of PS football with the Rose Bowl win. Expect the stadium fundraising to start shortly. Kraft seems like a guy to capitalize on momentum and it hasnt been this good in years.
