Frames has flipped 6-8 PSU commits to VA Tech.

Signing day is very early this year, Wednesday.

He's a players coach!

No coach is hurting PSU immensely.

Not sure their thinking by moving signing day so early, it's obviously what's caused all of this chaos in the middle of a playoff hunt. Can't really blame the schools or the coaches for need to get things pretty ironed out this week to save next season.
 
Also just saw something saying Chip Kelly might be a long shot for the Kentucky job. Not sure if he has any ties to the program outside of his OC job at tOSU which is fairly near Lexington.

I detailed why signing day was moved early AM in this thread.

I'm not sure why it's moved up an additional 2 weeks this year. Stupid.

Reading things on X from KY fans about the potential of Hartline going there is hilarious.

Why is it hilarious?

His brother, Mike Hartline, is a quarterback for the Wildcats and now an offensive quality control coach on the UK staff.

Given the success of the tOSU offense after replacing key starters on Offense, why would he not be considered a serious candidate?

It is not like the list of names connected right now are they type that make one fall out of their seats?

Here are the current odds:

  • Will Stein +200
  • Brian Hartline +300
  • Neal Brown +500
  • Glenn Schumann +600
  • Dan Mullen +700
  • Bob Chesney +1200
  • Sonny Dykes +1200
  • Chip Kelly +1400
  • Gerad Parker +1400
  • Brian Kelly +1400
  • Joe Brady +1400
  • Jeff Brohm +1400
  • Brent Key +1600
  • P.J. Fleck +2500

Yeah, not a big Franklin fan, but:

He signed early to have a better shot at these recruits. He could have strung out Penn St a couple of more weeks for a little more $$$, but he did not.

He signed early in the week before the last home game against Miami so he was able to get recruits in for a gameday recruiting visit, which is unheard of for a coach taking over a new team.

VT is a logical place for Franklin since he has coached all around the area at Vandy, Maryland, and Penn St.

He seems motivated to show Penn St that they fucked up.

It seems like a perfect fit and a situation that VT could not have dreamed of the day that they fired Pry.

It’s hilarious because unless Hartline wants his head coaching career to die before it even begins, there is no chance he’s taking that job.

I’m no Franklin fan.
If I’m VT; I’m over the moon 🌕

Think VT and Sparty both did insanely well all assuming Fitz ends up in E Lansing. Was pretty much out of left field but good hire in my book

The games haven’t been played yet, but both look great. Honestly, impressed with VT going in like that and Small Game James saying fuck the money/

I’m in. ACC blows….he can easily win there

Like I told my friend:

You ever think you’ll make it to where you’re hopping on a Jet with a bunch of people flipping you off and “fuck you” on your way to collect 100 million?


His retort:

I’d love to be the guy taking a rip off all of em pitting schools against each other
 
Color me stunned if Kalani leaves BYU for Penn State. He is a devout Mormon who has spent 28 of the last 30 years in Utah. He has no recruiting ties whatsoever to the Northeast.

This feels like such an odd fit that I can't imagine any other motive outside of getting paid more. I predict BYU takes him from $3M a year up to $5M.

They should have the money now after the Big 12 move.

They have the money due to a guy named Ryan Smith. How do you think they are buying their hoops team?

The problem for any BYU coach is the church will only alot so much of their funds to athletics. They will have to go into uncharted waters and basically use NIL and donor money to pay him the difference.

In fact, he would have been a better hire for UCLA than the JMU guy but that's a step down for him.

I actually love the Chesney hire by UCLA.

I foresee 2026 and 2027 as him building the team out with his guys and implementing all of his schemes in all three phases,
and then 2028 UCLA wins DD games.

This is what I see. Maybe I am completely blind on this one. I don't know. I just think Chesney is the real deal.
