Why Penn State fired James Franklin now | Candidates for the Nittany Lions' next coach

Penn State has fired coach James Franklin after consecutive losses as a 20-point favorite. It’s a dramatic fall for a program that opened the season with national title aspirations. The Nittany Lions will eat a $48.6 million buyout, but that amount could be reduced if Franklin gets another job. And there is a good chance he will, because he will be a desirable candidate for multiple programs. Meanwhile, who does Penn State hire? Alum Matt Rhule? Matt Campbell? Do the Nittany Lions try to pry Curt Cignetti away from Indiana? Our show is presented by BetMGM!
