For anyone interested, I decided to do a deep dive on James Franklin
Warning, it might be a bit heavy on data. But I tried to explain the various charts and insights.

So much of what is put out on social media is partial data or very filtered data or biased data.
I want us all to have the full data to make our own conclusions. And I will likely go add to my post tonight to include a view of how he did across each specific season so that everyone can see that aspect.
And FYI, I can do an analysis on any HC who coached at least one game between 2015-2025. I have all the data.

I have manually entered the data for over 8,000 games over 11 seasons for all the FBS schools. I have combined data in ways that do not exist anywhere else. I am an expert on what this data is and the ways that it can provide new insights.
So the commentary is to share my knowledge of the data. And it’s to help people who might prefer writing over charts and tables.

Are you the Board rep only when its convenient? The attempt at building a coalition (a 3rd grade level fallacy) by using "Us" is followed my some assertive "I's" and "Myselfs". In the field of psychology, those quick transitions from Fallacy based coalition building by using "us" and transitioned to immediate "I's and Me's or Myself" hint at Narcissism. Just sayin.....

He shared his narrative to the board as a whole. Not just me. So the use of "us" rather than "I" in that response was proper.
I can think for myself. I can't speak to whether others can or can not think for themselves (thus "maybe some..."). So, the use of "I" rather than "us" in that response was also proper.
