LSU could do a lot worse actually. He is a solid coach, some questionable time managment in some games, but more than capable of running a program.

He did wonders for Vandy, so LSU shouldn't be much harder.

Why would LSU want Franklin? He’s an OK coach but that’s about it.

Would be a home run hire.

Apparently his people were already contacted by LSU, but the initial discussions didn’t go well. Franklin has a Top15 team still in the hunt for a Big10 title and playoff berth. He’s apparently very cautious that any discussions are behind closed doors.

9.5? But all I heard was that LSU didn't have the money to match Jimbo's contract..

Right now his deal is 6/38.2 M (~6.4 per).

It'll take something like 8/64 M. It'll be less than 9.5, but not much.

News flash OP... I lot of coaches would leave for LSU if they'd get $9.5MM/year.

As an Alabama fan, I hope that is who they get. Very mediocre coach imo.

Franklin isn't going to LSU at any price.

If Franklin does go to LSU, I hope both of the Vandy fans get really pissed off about it.

Franklin had VANDY popping off.

He's a damned good coach.

VANDY.
