2025-26 Coaching Carousel

They were down 17. Kicked a field goal (covered the spread) to get to 14

Onside kicked it but didn’t recover it with like 2:40 left and 3 timeouts. They just let Michigan run the ball and never used one of them. Michigan went tempo then and tried to score but didn’t.
To me that tells your team you give up
 
Any team need one gently used head coach with a (sometimes) proven 3 year turnaround plan?
 
Who does PSU chase if Franklin is out? I’m reading a PSU board and they’re still in the Gruden/Urban stage of delusion. Kiffin? Hardline? Rhule?

Sounds like Franklin has like $50m+ left on his contract so they probably force him to change coordinators first and then he’s out after next year if they don’t turn it around.

He just changed coordinators and honestly both were upgrades over the past two years. It’s Franklin and Allar.

If they come get Rhule, their fans would crucify their AD. I mean I get it from his perspective because he was Rhule’s AD at Temple and they are still good friends but I don’t think he’s done good enough here to make them want him. I think their boosters would make him go after someone more high profile.
I think Pedo state needs to take a look at what happened with us and Wisconsin…… guaranteed though they will think “oh it can’t happen to us, we are Penn state”… same damned thing we said 20 years ago……

Yeah, I would tend to agree. Maybe if he had beat Michigan and we ended up with a CFP run this year, but I doubt there would be enough internal support at PSU for it. Rhule is more a program builder anyway, not that different than Franklin. They need someone that can give them a shot to take the next step.
 
Penn State doesn't need a program re-builder. They need a program take the next step-er guy. They need a Dan Lanning. Bama is back if they find a way out of Kalen this offseason and hire Lanning. If I'm Penn State I'm putting out the feeler to Lanning now and unofficially making him say no.
