Seems like Hartline aimed kinda low for his first job.  If he had waited a couple of weeks he probably could have gotten a billion dollars out of Penn St.

Why go through the grind of playing in the P5 when you can play in a second tier conference, still make the playoffs, and live in a state with no income tax? Seems like an easier path to a title while living in a place with better weather. 

State College or Tampa?

Hartline will win at USF and be able to pick a job... Or he can go to PSU and get fired.

PSU going with the interim coach after all this would be a massive fail. Still plenty of better options out there. I'd be calling Mullen, Campbell, hell even Gruden or Daboll

James Franklin currently has a top 25 class at VaTech and PSU signed one recruit. 

Apparently that one player, the Pennsylvania QB, was committed to them, then switched to Auburn, then after AU fired Freeze he switched back. I heard they paid a lot of money for this kid.

I'm sure Charlie Strong thought the same way, but maybe I'm giving him too much credit.

You mean the interim corch that managed to hold on to one single recruit?  Great idea.

Still can.  Just a buyout in the way.

Maybe that’s the plan, just contact every coach and get schools to spend all the money on extensions and then psu swoops in and buys all the transfer talent…

Hugh Freeze everyone. “I don’t wanna poor-mouth Jackson, but he is the reason I got fired.”

What an idiot.  You’re the one who took him after watching him be terrible and get benched last year.

Seems like they'd fire the AD at Penn State for incompetence

If history tells us anything, he is likely to get a statue soon.

I’ve known Terry for a long time and I never thought he’d get a serious look but, it seems like he may.

"Would he be their first black coach?"

 

Have to remind self that I realized this year that Franklin is apparently supposedly black ('ish).

He could’ve paid anyone here or on the sooner boards to tell him that…what a dumbfuck.

I was going to opine earlier that the carousel has not really been that crazy except for the money. I would have been wrong.

It's just that all the crazy got focused on Penn State.

I suspect that a lot of players on the current team may look to the portal instead of staying on that sunken ship. No recruits. No coach. No winning.

Penn State may have imposed the death suicide penalty on themselves. They should never have emerged from the Sandusky/Paterno scandal with so little damage. They're making up for it now.

I think you can see hell from here, ol' buddy!

When new head coaches sign a contract with a school, are there constraints that prevent them from immediately fielding or accepting offers from other schools? Like a 1-2 year period that they can’t leave without a massive buyout owed to the school. In other words could someone like a Penn St even go after Kiffin today? (This is an example not saying that is a real possibility.)

Jimmy Sexton to white courtesy phone.....

Totally depends on contract. A lot of them have specific schools mentioned in their contract with out clauses. It seems a lot of coaches add an "out" for the school they graduated from.

And most times the new school will cover the cost of the buyout as part of the new contract with the coach. Just depends how badly they want the corch.

I could see it happening this season with Penn State if it wasn't a complete shit show , Kraft must be poisoning the well in his sales job here

Its definitely happened before, Manny _iaz lasted two weeks at Template before becoming the HC at Miami after Richt retired . The difference here was Manny likely didn't know Richt would retire , already knew the AD so he just boomeranged back. 

At this stage , WTF is going so wrong at Penn State no one wants the job, there is real blood in the water here that is keeping coaches away
