What was with that rage of Anger by Franklin?

Would be the first time Farmer made contact today. He should not be on the field.
Sad, really...but I had to chuckle at that one!
I watch him frequently when you can see him on the screen. He never makes plays. The LB play is very poor. New blood is needed.
Good for Franklin. Yes, today was tough.
No, we aren't that good because our linemen (both sides) are adequate at best.
But I want a coach with class. Franklin appears to have that. So, I'm good. We'll continue to get better.
James was getting his players back on the field to shake hands after a tough season ending loss.
Yeah. Our LBs have been brutally exposed the last 2 weeks.
Not sure when Farmer became slower than me, but it looks like he's running in molasses out there
LBers are pathetic. Brandon Bell masked our deficiencies last year (compare him in vs out of games). Seriously, name something they do well? Playing the run? Defending the pass? Blitzing? Open field tackling?
I'll wait for a response.
I'll wait for a response.
His pass coverage skills are non-existent. I remember him "covering" a TE. For about 1/2 second. then he just looks back at the QB and basically stops like the play is over and the TE just trots down the sideline and catches the ball....... I can't imagine how he could have hoped to play Safety.
Recruiting, Recruiting, Recruiting.......
A season ending loss for pitt usually comes in week 1 or 2...
Good lesson, not sure if calling out frustrated players and embarrassing them in front of a national audience is the best way to do that. Praise in public, correct in private. It's not as if a player was giving the crowd the finger.
No one will handle these things perfectly.
Most coaches will pretend not to see it because it helps them avoid any criticism.
Let's not criticize a coach who did the right thing, but maybe in a less than perfect way. We wouldn't want him to do it differently (meaning not at all) next time.

No, certainly the running off the field incident wont influence his coming back, but overall his career has been underwhelming. Parsons would look good in his role.
Where ever you put Parsons leave him there. Develop him. Don't move him around.
Absolutely! Bell was the heart and soul of that defense and it showed when he broke his wrist taking the turnover toward the end zone against SC in the Rose Bowl. After he left our defense looked lost. At times it seems so this season. I don't hammer individual players but today I could. Watching would be tacklers bounce off running backs and left in their wake when they did touch them, wow.
Seemed flat in some manner and the offense did seem to have some success running the ball in the 2nd half, surprisingly so after last week. This is a game of funny bounces, inches here and there, missed opportunities and mistakes. I hope they pull together and really turn it up next week. We have some issues for sure and the sanction hangover seems to be a bit of a factor even yet but our recruiting is going very well. If we finish strong and recruit well our trajectory will continue vertical.
Pitt has a season? I thought they were a foil, like that team that travels with and plays the Harlem Globetrotters.
