Penn State's James Franklin firing more justified after Iowa loss? Do Matt Rhule's results matter?
Description
In their weekly Penn State football chat, host Adam Bittner and Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise ponder how meaningful the Nittany Lions results for the rest of the season will be.
Will more struggles under interim coach Terry Smith from OC Andy Kotelnicki and DC Jim Knowles further validate James Franklin's firing as coach? Or has the move given the team permission to lose focus on 2025? Do Ethan Grunkemeyer, Kaytron Allen, Dani Dennis-Sutton and Co. have any hope of upsetting Ryan Day and Ohio State or Curt Cignetti and Indiana? Do Matt Rhule's results at Nebraska for the season matter to his candidacy to replace Franklin? Or will Joe Paterno supporters want him to take over the Lions regardless? And what are the chances under-the-radar names like Pat Fitzgerald, Kliff Kingsbury and Matt Campbell emerge as candidates in the search? Our duo tackles those questions and more.
