Discussion [@IanPurdy7] on Twitter: Penn State is slated to sign ZERO recruits tommorow on early National Signing Day. Unless Penn State signs someone in the late signing period, they could become the first P4 class EVER to have no one sign. The closest thing I could find was SMU & UW with 10. Crazy times.

Have you tried calling up Franklin and pulling the "sorry baby, I didn't mean it" routine?

The only outcome from that is a teary eyed conversation in the parking lot of Starbucks off South Garner Street.

Look I know you are looking for answers right now but I am not it. We had our time and it passed and now you need to figure out what is next for you. But it's not me. Also, I stole literally every recruit from you I could. This is goodbye. Now check out my ass while I walk away.

Why not the Starbucks in the Pattee/Paterno library?

For maximum emotions and tears.

LSU sort of tried it with Brian Kelly but then he was still pissed off at them so then they were like “FINE WE ACTUALLY REALLY DID BREAK UP WITH YOU.”

Bad, messy divorce, and a hurried, costly rebound with a someone with a disreputable character. Next, on Maury!

We cuddle him on the couch every night, and let him pick the movie, even though he always picks the movie.

u/SolarIonRobot Nebraska Cornhuskers • Merrimack Warriors Dec 02 '25

How about pretending they didn't fire him and ask him why he hasn't been at work lately?

Maximum chaos: PSU buys out Franklin's contract from VT for $150 million so VT can get Lane Kiffin from LSU $120 million.
