Based on recent precedent, I assume the rest of the B10 ADs and coaches are going to get together and suggest they suspend franklin immediately, and the B10 commissioner will implement it???

[@joshuabb2]

Jury just ruled for the doctors. Hope they do a follow up.

[@tsully4368]

Being that in game decisions are a glaring weakness for CJF, it would likely benefit PSU to have him suspended for a few games 😁

This is a nothing burger. Same story from the same reporter been trying to do this for 3 years now.

[@ExcitedIsoscelesTriangle-ot4rk]

People that use nothing burger are tools.

[@daveratledge]

I have nothing against Penn State. That dude is shade though. Look at Franklins cover up of scrape at Vandy.

That's Michigan! 🤣

[@MarcusHalberdstrom]

Nothing burger? Is it anything like a cheeseburger 🍔 ? Glass houses, just sayin. When is the next coaches call? Can we Zoom in Jim Harbaugh as a special guest?

[@MrRoscojones1]

Remember that this is the same guy in Franklin who interfered in a criminal investigation of several of his players who gang r$&e incident while at Vanderbilt. He’s a dirt bag!

[@jamesfox5105]

Yes he is a dirt bag and he did interfere. I thought that was the reason Penn state hired him,for the cover ups.

[@Peter-w4s1e]

Supporting his guys

[@martintrejo1950]

Medical scholarship would be given and not count towards regular scholarship players

[@mark8337]

Have to get depositions from the player, the players family, from all the coaches at the time, all the medical staff including trainers, the Athletics Director, etc. Get to the bottom of it under oath. Then let the chips fall. If the Coaches pressured in any way that was sideways, they gotta go.

[@MarcusHalberdstrom]

OMG per Tony Patutti rules Franklin needs to be put on suspension immediately prior to any investigation. No due process needed.

[@nicholastaiariol2631]

Lmao go blue

[@leojanuszewski1019]

Michigan fan here. Keep Franklin at PSU!

[@josephconfer5924]

I am a Penn State fan and I think that your comment is funny as hell, Franklin is a clown and we all know it . I don't care if a coach is so called loved, can he freaking coach, answer, absolutely not

[@troybrown1083]

So these guys are saying you should never tell a player what they have to do to their bodies but yet clearly support a party that tells women what they can or can not do to their bodies, hypocrites

[@buckyoung4578]

Murdering your pre-born child has ZERO to do with what "a woman can do with her body". And, based on WHAT do you spew that, "...these guys...clearly support a party that tells women what they can or can not do with 'their' bodies". You spout total BS!!!

[@dannybaldwin7343]

🤷 Use the kids when not needed or wanted off the team. 🤷💰🏈🏀💰

[@ryansheard8092]

I totally disagree about pushing dudes to get surgery. There's NOTHING wrong with that! Period. If a coach knows surgery would help, damn right a coach should offer/suggest it. BTW, the Dr.s suggestions were always followed. Get a grip....this "story" is NOT a story.

Alabama was king of the grey shirt back in the day. A grey shirt has always been a way to hide scholarship players.

[@Jrm-xs9qi]

U guys are completely ignorant and don’t realize Franklin is named as sitting in the room to influence the decision. It’s clear as day he’s going to be fired. Franklin is the worst kind of human and treats his workers like 💩

[@ediddy1712]

Franklin has always brought back players slower than the norm from injury. There have been multiple examples of freshman under Franklin joining the team and never playing a snap for the program, and medically retiring and keeping full ride scholarships to the school (2018 Nana Asiedu and Jordan Miner).

[@Jrm-xs9qi]

@@ediddy1712 yep that’s what u pennstate homers will say and will hold to dear life that fact both of my parents work for pennstate and have told me how he has treated employees let alone the players. So I think I’m extremely more knowledge then u and don’t be surprised when he gets fired or suspended over this because these are serious allegations

[@ediddy1712]

@@Jrm-xs9qi Nothing is going to happen. Two failed lawsuits by a former doctor, and soon to be a third. One can be a fan and realistic at the same time. There is nothing here. Franklin isn't even being sued in this case.

@@ediddy1712 your extremely naïve a three game suspension is at least coming. Lmfao Michigan got suspended 3 games for player safety this is exactly what Franklin violated and with his 3-16 record I could see pennstate jumping ship from this loser 💀
