Serious question - what about Franklin makes him so attractive?
DurhamHokie 10/30/25 01:27 PM ET
Here's why I like him...in order of priorities...
Techsupport 10/30/25 04:18 PM ET
I'm not yet sure how I feel about him, but you make good points!**
DurhamHokie 10/30/25 05:34 PM ET
Are you kidding? He was 24-15 at Vanderbilt and 104-45 at Penn State
YBYSAIAHokie 10/30/25 02:27 PM ET
No, I wasn't kidding...

Franklin's agent hard at work...**
marcbvtgm 10/30/25 09:30 AM ET
Jimmy Sexton is (nearly) every other coach's agent, too.
Will StewartAdmin 10/30/25 10:14 AM ET
Sexton was Beamer's agent also, correct?**
Atlee Hokie 10/30/25 11:19 AM ET
I was about to say, if I'm a cfb coach, I want Franklin's agent 🤑**
AirForceHokie77 10/30/25 10:01 AM ET
I heard he's already loaded Metallica to his phone **
bigbadbird 10/30/25 09:05 AM ET
And ordered Turkey Legs ;)**

If anyone listened to the TSL podcast w/Teel, this isn’t surprising
Hokiefied 10/30/25 09:03 AM ET
Probably waiting on the FSU shoe to drop. If he wants ACC, that's the place**
Techsupport 10/30/25 09:56 AM ET
I think he’d view that as PSU Part Deux w/irrational expectations
Hokiefied 10/30/25 10:11 AM ET
The travel alone from Stanford to ACC games would be big negative I think..
Techsupport 10/30/25 10:56 AM ET
Stanford has a national profile as does Franklin. I’d think he would…
Hokiefied 10/30/25 11:23 AM ET
Once we pay anyone $10mm plus our expectations will be irrational....
Virginian42 10/30/25 10:53 AM ET
Do we really have to pay him 10mm if PSU is on the hook for the difference?**
Techsupport 10/30/25 03:56 PM ET
The free market will dictate. Haven't seen any of them so far say.....
Virginian42 10/30/25 04:23 PM ET
Agree expectations go up at VT too but not playoff year 1
Hokiefied 10/30/25 11:15 AM ET
Go back and listen to older podcasts. Teel's more wrong than right.
marcbvtgm 10/30/25 09:42 AM ET
Like I said, I’m at wait and see on the outcome but I think he’s spot on…

Mullen, Chesney, Franklin in order**

Agreed

Monday...my dear friend says.. IMHO

I’m standing by we’ll see. Agents are smooth criminals & happy to spread…
Hokiefied 10/30/25 09:33 AM ET
Dustin and Danny this am said he would be a perfect fit for the hokies ✌️**
jagerhokie 10/30/25 08:43 AM ET
Oh great, Dustin and Danny (whoever that is) say it's a perfect fit.**
marcbvtgm 10/30/25 09:32 AM ET
😂**
AirForceHokie77 10/30/25 10:03 AM ET
can't believe Franklin would get hired so soon after getting fired**
hokeyhokie 10/30/25 08:30 AM ET
He made it to the National Semifinals last year!
MVIII 10/30/25 02:50 PM ET
Get your Spot Before It's gone VT/Franklin...good fit
JRHokie 10/30/25 08:31 AM ET
My MD friend is afraid of how that will kill UMDs recruiting**
Hokey Pokey 10/30/25 09:31 AM ET
Your MD friend is a fool for a couple of reasons then.
marcbvtgm 10/30/25 09:38 AM ET
At this point it's just the internet rumor mongers and reporters repeating
BG Hokie 10/30/25 08:25 AM ET
His agent is doing a great job of getting his name out there **
Happy Dog 10/30/25 09:12 AM ET
"Not so fast" ...... Big reason VT /Franklin makes sense..
JRHokie 10/30/25 08:30 AM ET
I don't see one BIG reason it makes sense in any of this.**
