James “not elite” Franklin (HC Penn St. Nittany Lions, Dead Man Walking)

If I was that rich I'd take a nice coaching job at some vacation destination. Hawaii, Some place near the rockies. On the great Lakes

If I was that rich, I wouldn’t do a damn thing. Least of all coaching! With his name, anywhere he goes will expect to win big due to his name. No thanks, get a boat, and get a job on a network. Urban has been undefeated on Fox, and no worry of headaches

The truth of it is that you learn to spend what's in your pocket.

He will need his next job same as you or me.

Oh I know he’ll need his job. But he can still make 7 figures as an analyst for some network. Fox, CBS, ESPN, etc would throw money at him to just talk ball. And far less stress

If fucking Herbie can do it......anyone can do it

Except maybe Gronk but he's retarded so you can't hold it against him I guess.

So... I watched most of the game. Not all.
Was there a bad coaching blunder on Franklin's part?

I’ve been discussing this with friends, but his decision to combine statue Drew Allar with an OC who likes to do goofy crap and managed to make said statue’s best attribute being a running threat is a head coaching blunder. And hiring a DC who’s track record of taking three years to implement an effective system couldn’t be clearer for a one year title run now was also a major head coaching blunder.

He screwed himself before the year began. He either needed to dump Allar and get a gimmicky weird QB to pair with his gimmicky weird OC, or he needed to dump his OC and get someone who would at least try to use Allar’s arm to compliment the run game rather than making him a part of the run game.

And he needed to hire a DC who’s track record wasn’t extremely well known for being complicated as shit in ways that are impossible for players to master in year one.

In all seriousness, they need to check Gronk for CTE already. He's a damn mess.

I don’t think anyone would notice if they did that to Gronk

The truth of it is that you learn to spend what's in your pocket.

To a point. Some of that spending has to be in investments. Depending on the source, his net worth is between $12-$25 million. If he wanted to retire from the job, he would most likely negotiate a reduced buyout leaving him with millions being payed out over a period of years.
