Tom Allen bolts psu for Clemson
- Thread starter PaBoiler78
- Start date
Only one reason to leave.....$$$$ Man, with his buyout and these last two stops, he can open up a car dealership anywhere he wants to.
I actually think that Allen's style and Franklin's style probably clashed. Dabo and Allen are "Godlier" in their approach to coaching.
By all accounts, Allen’s a good man, and Dabo seems to be also.
Franklin … seems like a tool.
Allen is and always has been a spaz.
I’d kill to have a coach like Franklin at Purdue.
I guess. From everything I hear he’s an OK guy but very “camera ready” and on at all times.
And considering he’s still never really won a huge game…
We’d no doubt be better. But how much better and at what cost?
“Camera ready” and “on” sound pretty damn good to me!
I’d LOVE to be bitching about another 10-win season, another top 10 ranking, and a frustrating collapse in the CFP final four….
Other than the 2000 Rose Bowl ( and maybe the Tyler Trent OSU miracle) , I’m hard pressed to name any Purdue game in 50 years that has even approached the level of “hugeness” that Franklin has routinely gotten Penn State to.
As to the “cost” what are you referring to? I haven’t heard anything slimy attributed to Franklin, other than that he rubs certain people the wrong way.
Maybe they can teach him the courage to maintain outside leverage and properly seal the edge, instead of ineffectively shooting inside on every play, leaving the perimeter totally un-defended over and over again…
