IMO, Poor coaching...and I REALLY wanted to support JF

[eloracv]

...being beaten by a Penn State alum who makes 1/5 of what JF makes.

Congratulation to an alum who today showed the folks who hijacked the once proud Penn State programs how it's supposed to be done. Joyner and Erickson bear a lot of the blame/shame.

Franklin has so far proven himself to be a poor game coach.

Agree.

 

[uscgPSU]

Can't agree more. CJF's personality only goes so far. Sure he's a nice guy with a larger than life personality, but he has to produce on the field. For God's sake Coach, change up your plays, show some passion, and if you're going to take a loss do it with some fire in your belly instead of just getting worked over by the little brother. I don't mind losing because that's life, but does anyone care out there?

 

[Pocono Lion]

Doesn't matter it you're a great recruiter if you can't coach them once you get them. Just a pathetic performance by all involved.

 

[MANASSASPSU]

Well I bouht his line . He might be a big B. S artist I do not care how young we are. We got it handed to us today. The biggest loss in PSU history as far as I am concerned

Right now, it looks like CJF is all sizzle and no steak.

Said this in another thread, but we would have been so much better off had we hired Munchak. He might not light up the media, but at least he can develop a line, which if you don't have, you have nothing.

 

[PennStateNate]

Don't worry, he will get on twitter tonight and post a few motivational quotes and all will be forgotten.

 

[58psu77]

Chip Kelly will come.
JF is a $5 million recruiter and a Pop Warner coach.

 

[Fed Express]

He will get things fixed to play against Buffalo Bulls. There will be great improvement. We need to get Vandy on future schedules.

Doesn't really sound like you did if you've given up already. That's the spirit.

 

[cment]

Worse loss then Toledo. temple is a good team, but ......smh.

Munchak turned us down when we really needed him

 

[AWS1022]

He either can't coach (which is hard to believe considering he won at Vandy) or he can't coach someone like Hack because Hack doesn't fit his style. If that's the case, then get a hack out and play a qb you can win with.

Nothing has been fixed...27 unanswered points. All the pre-season hype coming from JF was just that - hype. "UNRIVALED" NOT!

Again, you don't seem like you were really behind him. If you were, you wouldn't give up your support after one game. You just don't sound sincere.

I am sincerely disappointed, and I feel sorry for the players who are being so poorly coached.

What did he win at Vandy? He beat a bunch of teams that were equal to Boston College, Purdue, Rutgers, Indiana.. When he played the ranked teams he was slaughtered.

The #107k strong will need to be changed to #80k strong

HaHaHa, Rutgers will be coming to town in a couple weeks so you can expect another serious beatdown! That's the problem with Penn State fans...you are all hype and haven't been a powerhouse in years but still imagine you are.

check out his record at vandy against teams over .500

He scheduled 4 cupcakes and got wins against the bottom of the SEC.

He's a great recruiter, that's it.

The question is whether or not he's smart enough to defer to someone that can coach? Bring the assistants to get the job done and let them do their jobs?

Who has Rutgers beaten lately? At least we can say we were a powerhouse at one time.

Does Rutgers have to stop and pick up the trash on the highway in their orange jumpsuits on the way here?

I wonder what Galen Hall is doing these days?

The teams he beat were not that good.

 

[HTP1]

No. They are just like the old Paterno teams. They beat up and steal from students then play on Saturday's after cleaning the stadium. At least Rutgers kicked them off the team.

Same thing at psu. Schedule 4 ooc cupcakes and beat the bad big pretend teams. Oh wait, one of the cupcakes ate psu. Lol

First chink in the armor, Ted.

Oh that is a treasure from PSU mentioning orange suits. I assume your AD should now be asked to apologize, cuz our feelings are hurt. No one from PSU has any right to ever criticize another program for criminal behavior. Lmao

 

[joewp]

Try not to over react but today was not a loss, it was a beat down in a game we were favored to win. This is Franklin's second year, not his first. The staff and the system are Franklin's choices. Without trying to be melodramatic, after a loss like today, I think Franklin should be on the clock. He needs to prove that he was the right choice and he deserves the 4Mil contract.

 

[RUtix4me]

Oh and by the way you will win nothing with Franklin as HC

 

[bmw199]

Gameplan was pee poor

 

[nwtiger531]

It's not one game. We saw the same vanilla play calling all of last year. I chalked it up to a new scheme and young players but you have experience now and a whole offseason to fix it. Yet this is what you produce. Inexcuseable

Hahaha yeah... Big bad RUTGERS lol. Calm down champ, you're still rutgers. And we know we aren't a powerhouse but the performance today was horrendous

 

[nwtiger531]

You're probably right. But you will win nothing because you're... Rutgers
