To be honest, if it isn't Frankin and another coach is selected all they have to say is a coach has been found. He will complete his current regular season and then the announcement will be made.

100% this.

I want Franklin to be the next coach and I'm sitting here like everyone else waiting for an ESPN breaking news. But if we have moved on from him we aren't hiring the next till after the regular season at the earliest. Even if they had a verbal agreement with Chesney there's gonna be no announcement until his regular season is over at the earliest.

Franklin is available now. He has time and honestly so do we, though we'd like to get the ball rolling early of course. This past weekend is when I've read the most about a deal seeming close or done in principle but nothing signed.

so if Franklin has said "Yes, I'll accept the job now lets work out the details" that takes some time as well. Bonuses, coordinator candidates and salary, etc.

I said that once to a GS15 from the sponsor (who had started where I am now and I know well). She responded, "TMI." I had to immediately backtrack, "No no no, I wasn't going there!" ๐Ÿคฃ

Really could've backfired that time.

My dad hits me with that one a few times a year, lol...with the setup, I had to follow through...

But I'll just say, the Dad Joke Thread is over there ------>

Oh, for sure. I'm not saying don't pursue him aggressively. Would love to sign him today.

What I'm pushing back on is the idea that we need to move on. Unless they're completely incompetent, they're identifying/pursuing/interviewing multiple people all at once. There seems to be this idea that there's a huge opportunity cost to what's going on with Franklin. That just doesn't make a ton of sense to me, given where we are in the calendar.
