What I’m saying is if A&M didn’t want him, he would have been out at FSU within a year. It’s just not a legit example.
Orgeron is out at LSU
- Thread starter WPB_lion
- Start date
I didn’t know Orgeron got 9M. If that is their pitch we may have to worry about CJF leaving.
Money talks.

You can't mix metaphors. It's Earth, Wind & Fire or the Moon and the Stars and the Sun. Pick one!
Unless the millions Franklin is making now is enough and his family is happy where they’re at.
Or what about all the college coaches who have succeeded. Many good NFL coaches started in college.
I found it to be a little odd that Ed Orgeron and his wife filed for divorce after a few months after winning a NC.
Rumor has it that since the separation his behavior has been highly inappropriate. He supposedly hit on a very high ranking LSU officer’s wife. This guy pushed hard for his firing and a compromise was reached.

Law of diminishing returns. Given where Franklins salary is now LSU isn’t going to offer him anything that is going to dramatically improve his quality of life unless he’s really tired of the mediocre food in state college.
Another school offers Franklin $2mm more and he's going to say, "It's really not going to improve my quality of life, so, nah, I'll pass." LMAO.
Saban has, what, maybe 5 years left at "Bama. He'll be in his mid-70s, probably tired of all the NCAA bullcrap, numerous championships under his belt, and bank account overflowing. He'll probably also make a fortune as a commentator, and he'll probably write a book or two.
Someone who takes the LSU job for the next 5 years could be set up nicely to replace Saban.

If he loses to Saban for five years, he won't be at LSU. If he beats Saban for five, he be locked in at LSU.
Either way, USC or LSU, PSU needs to start jockeying for better position here.
Franklin is the number one coach mentioned with all these jobs - at some point PSU will need to recognize he’s the hottest name in the market and both sides commit to the long term.

Don't think I'd want to be the coach to replace Saban. The expectations would be unreal.
Looks like O’s off the field behavior may have played a big part in his termination . For the Athletic subscribers , looks like a bigger article just released there .

I could see him wanting out of the B1G though. Who would want to coach in a conference led by idiots and put up with ref screw jobs all the time?
You remember we had a game refed by the SEC this year right? The one where we lost a down following a penalty that was called completely wrong?
Good point, but my guess is Bama gets their share of calls in the SEC.
You're right but he stated his disappointment with how things were handled last season by the B1G. When we get O'Neil for all our big games you think he doesn't notice that? I'd like to see our record with O'Neil as ref for the past 10 years.
This complaint goes on all the time throughout all the conferences - it's not just a PSU thing
Understood. Why doesn't O'Neil ref when we play Rutgers? I just Googled him name and this came up. Coincidence?
It is unusual that he ends up officiating all of our big games. The law of averages says that shouldn’t happen so frequently.Understood. Why doesn't O'Neil ref when we play Rutgers? I just Googled him name and this came up. Coincidence?
Have no i
Have no idea who this Change.org is but if you travel the different boards you'll see massive complaints by all fan bases especially if they perceive they're getting the short end of the deal. Take a trip through an SEC fan base's website after they play Alabama - especially if it's a close game. You would think every ref during the game was bought off. Just goes with the territoryUnderstood. Why doesn't O'Neil ref when we play Rutgers? I just Googled him name and this came up. Coincidence?
The fact that SC and LSU are ready to throw 2-3 million more at James is telling. CJF is a excellent coach in a game where only 2-4 coaches are never going to be on the hot seat.
I do believe this. If James moves to the human culture pit know as Louisiana or the most absurdly expensive place in the US it tells me one thing. Be happy as a PSU fan for 10 wins and an occasional NY day bowl game. A NC championship or a spot in the 4 team playoff is not happening. PSU needs to step up and pay James what is required for a top 5-10 coach. Yes....Over pay him if need be... Allow him to keep his assistants, Why is Ryan Days name not mentioned for these jobs? Why?? Because PSU NATIONALLY IS CONSIDERED A SECOND TEAR JOB. Sucks to hear that doesn't it? If PSU is really the next Clemson pay him accordingly.
Money talks folks.....
Even Davey "tOSU" Jones sees it.
On Big Ten ref John O’Neill and the perception that an official could really want Penn State or any school to lose
The Big Ten says it was the replay official who had final say on overturning a Penn State touchdown at Iowa on Saturday night. But the veteran Big Ten football referee is still under fire from PSU fans after his previous transgressions.
