A couple years out, but Malachi Toney on Miami looks amazing too.

Well...we should know today or tomorrow. This is the most tight lipped search I have EVER seen. Nobody knows anything. Kalshi has about 20% Chesney, 20% Lincon Riley, 20% Kalen Deboer, 20% Kalani Sitaki and 20% Terry Smith. And bouncing around +/- 5% from that. With an announcement supposedly coming no later than Monday (and possibly tonight) - its amazing nothing has leaked. We'll see...

So weird...never seen him appear in that much pain...but seems okay.

Is Micah Hyde available?

Serious question - I’d like some real football perspective here. What the heck is wrong with our rushing defense? Results are obviously terrible. Is it DL, LB? What’s actually going on here?

I love when teams intercept that. Better to drop it!

Worst challenge ever. IF he caught it - it’s a fumble, and I think we recovered it.

Yep. For me that guy is Bob Chesney, JMU...but I dont see Kraft reaching that far.

The options are getting slim IMO. Still some hope for DeBoer and Elko and Freeman - but those options have miserable timing - if they aren’t laughable in the first place. Names now look like Drinkwitz, who will probably wind up at Florida or some SEC school. Brohm from Louisville. Key from Georgia Tech (though I’m not convinced he is interested). And then the dark horse - and my personal favorite at the moment - Ohio State OC Brian Hartline (but he has limited experience) None of them are surefire better than Franklin. But still, the move had to happen - sad as it is. The fact that Franklin still hasn’t put out a Thank You to Penn state fans and university is quite telling on how sour things got. At the end of the day - it’s still Penn State - and a top 10 job. If they can keep a significant chunk of their young players and get some momentum in the portal - they should be fine. It appears one of the biggest opportunities they don’t want to miss is that next year is a SUPER easy schedule - plus they are renovating the stadium. So finding a way to win next year and gain momentum is even more critical. We’ll see. But I do trust Pat Kraft to make a good selection.

Even more than the win - Bishop and Hairston have given me a lot of hope today. We’re going to need to see someone take the next step on DL here. But overall - a very positive win. Only negative was the Hoecht injury.

Worthy = Keon today. For those tracking.

I gotta say - Bishop seems like he has come to play today.

Thats the speed Hawes can catch!

I hate that dudes yellow gloves!

my guess is....these deals often have an off-set clause in them. So if he gets a new job, LSU "recoups" the buyout. Maybe this guarantees him $27M with no offset if LSU doesn't think he will get a new job...they save $$. Kelly can now go get a new job and not have to pay back the $27M in offset. im just speculating....could be 100% wrong.
