Maybe Franklin isn't so bad after all... 😉

But James Franklin can’t coach, he can only sell used cars lol. You can’t win at the level James Franklin has and especially the challenges he took on without being a great coach. Get this man signed to a 10 year deal. I have this much confidence in James Franklin, he’s proved himself to be a great coach IMO
It's simple:
FranklinKnowsFootball !
Next year is our year, I think this team will go on the road and beat Michigan State and Ohio State.
Just imagine where we'd be if some of those bone headed plays weren't made by either Franklin or his assistants. I have been curious about how much freedom the coordinators are given on game day - we may see Franklin calling the odd timeouts, but could he be getting that decision from the coordinator in his headset - and figures since I give them full control in calling the game, if they want a timeout at a silly point in the game, I do it! Still can't tell how much of this is Franklin and how much is the coordinators.
Good point, Bob. I haven't figured out whether those assistants we brought on are any good, its hard to tell if JF is influencing the play calling or not. I do know that Franklin is not coaching them to drop balls
IMO lioninsa it was just one of those years where the ball didn’t bounce our way. Look at all the fumbles from other teams and the ball bounced right back in their hands lol. We had to many drops and fumbles and it cost us but we still had a really good season considering all the players and coaches we lost. Nothing wrong with coaching it was just a young team making stupid mistakes. Had we lost all three games in a blowout I’d be more concerned about the coaches but that’s not the case. We could be easily 11-1 had we caught the ball and not put it on the ground. Great days are here baby and greater are on the way. I agree with Roam next year will be our year.
