Vandy Coach James Franklin = Creepy

NFBuck

Total Coverage.
  • So you're thinking of joining the Vanderbilt football staff. You have a great resume, experience and talent. But getting a job on James Franklin's staff isn't about any of those things, it's about how attractive your wife is.
    Franklin unabashedly said so during a radio interview Wednesday where he claimed that one of the first things he does when looking at perspective hires is size up their wives.

    I get what he's saying, and that may be a somewhat valid criteria (I guess? I don't know), but you DON'T SAY IT OUT LOUD, you idiot! What kind of recruiter is he if he spills the secrets of the organization like that?



    Also, not to go all grammar-cop here, but what's up with this (from the article):

    Franklin isn't the first coach to lie out criteria for his coaching staff.


    You don't "lie" out criteria, you lay it out. Don't they proofread, or go back and fix stuff like this?

    What a fucking dumbass. I mean I'm sure he said it half in jest, but still...if you can't tell a woman "sorry, I know you are qualified to work as an engineer here, but you just aren't hot enough" when you are interviewing for jobs, then how in the fuck do you think no one is going to get offended by "Sorry, I know you are qualified to do this job...but your wife isn't hot enough". Leaving aside that hot can be and usually is entirely in the eye of the beholder, the dumb fuck also basically said you are a lesser person if you happen to fall in love with someone who doesn't meet his personal "hotness" scale...and so is she. Nice criteria for judging people there, chief. Word of advice to his wife: don't get old, don't get fat, and don't get acne...or you'll be divorced faster than you can say Bobby Petrino.

    Oh, and what happens if one of the supposedly hot wives gets in a car acident, the windshield shatters, and her face gets cut up? Or she gains 15 pounds when she has a kid? Does the assistant then get fired? Fuck this guy.

    No, I just get tired of jackoff meatheads who think there's only one way to judge people, and especially women...looks. And when he then makes statements that he uses that criteria not to hire women, but to hire the men they are married to, then uses half-assed language to semi-backtrack on Twitter, apparently not even realizing that some people might take it the wrong way when he said it, he looks like a moron.
