He seems like a stand-up who has done an amazing job at restoring the reputation of Penn State. He's also a pretty good football coach.

Why the hate?

He said he would only hire assistants who have hot wives.

Despite the fact that his wife is an IRL 5.5.

While at Vanderbilt, he was not a polite person and disrespectful of other programs w/in the conference.

He tried to fight Todd Grantham on national TV like he was macho man randy savage because he thought Grantham told his safety to intentionally hurt a guy. Franklin is a hot head like Pruitt, but slightly more intelligent.

It’s been thrown under the rug by the media for obvious reasons but Vandy had a lot of rape issues themselves when he was there

Why the hate for James Franklin? Because he is a piece of shite.

He's all mouth, no substance or accomplishments of note.

Because he’s a cocky sob.
Plus, the media loves to prop him up.

He told his players to erase evidence of a gang rape.

He’s a baby back bitch.

And had a full on meltdown during the Citrus Bowl in 2018 when we beat Penn State. Which we all enjoyed quite a bit.

He's a jerk, the Vandy rape stuff, also makes a lot of excuses for losses.
