247 Reporter Josh Newburg - Covers the Big 3 in FL.
Why leave PSU for FSU ?
1) Recruiting - FL is a hot bed and he is just below GA, where they have traditionally had a footing in S.GA. Getting kids to stay home or come to FL vs Pennsylvania is much easier.
2) Would you rather live in Florida or Pennsylvania ?
3) ACC is down and much weaker overall than Big10. Better chance at going to the playoff there than at PSU
4) Money, could be a hefty contract to get him to sign
If I had to guess, Franklin is using this to get about a million more a year out of PSU, and/or higher buyout. Could be wrong, but just guessing.
Agree
Really was just pointing out that this uncertainty at PSU cant do anything but help us with Theo, and then we kind of got off track haha. All good
All valid points
FSU is more of a national brand than PSU in all honesty. PSU most relevance in my lifetime was the Sandusky scandal. They have some good players in the league but FSU has real stake in DBU, is a hotbed for recruiting as well, and kids that had been born anywhere from 2002 on would have seen a national title from them.
Back on schedule - Next Up Z Walker
You beat me to it. Bringing it back to focusing on 2020 class, if people had to pick one player as a candidate for a signing day Kirby flip special for this class who would it be? Not who do you want but who could be the most realistic.
Yeah I don’t think Franklin going to FSU would be good for UGA - Dawgs recruiting picking up in State of Florida is partly due to rudderless FSU and Cousin Eddie’s lack of recruiting acumen in Gainesville.
I think the Kirby special is going to be a 2nd running back this year. Put me down for Chaney or Tank
Where did i say it would be a good thing (other than with TJ ?) ?
At some point FSU will get a good coach in there. Still like our staff over theirs in the end.
And he hasn't won big at Penn State. He's going to be leaving at some point... Better to leave on his own terms. IMHO
Really.....seems to be doing pretty well.
He's winning more than he did at Vandy... Penn State has been above average since hiring him, I just don't know if that's good enough.
Sec>B10>ACC
I wouldn't be surprised if he keeps moving until the competition evens out with his ability to coach and recruit.
Id put ACC over B10. FSU and Clemson have 3 national Championship wins in the past 8 years and been to every playoff lol
