Campbell won his QF 1-0. Faces the 7 seed Larkin. Who put on a masterclass of scrambling in his QF match. I do not like the matchup
Yeah Alum, I had no desire for him to come to Blacksburg, just was hoping his departure would initiate the assembly line from Happy Valley to Lane.
Scary....
I was hoping he'd leave Happy Valley not necessarily come to Blacksburg.
Smith was immediately beating the 'JoePa did nothing wrong' drum the second he got the head whistle
I am ok with him not coming here
Yeah, unfortunate. Maybe some might leave because of how he still wasn't the head whistle, but I'd imagine those 90% stay now. So to the portal we go.
Read - Penn St. throwing wads of cash at Terry Smith because he's the only hope they have of retaining current players and recruiting more.
This may slow/reduce the passengers on the train from Happy Valley to Blacksburg... Did not think he'd stick around like Bud did especially after such a long search and not hiring him.
Penn State is retaining Terry Smith as part of Matt Campbell's Penn State staff, sources tell @CBSSports.As Penn State's interim head coach, the ex-Nittany Lions star wide receiver led the team to three straight wins to close the year. pic.twitter.com/VGBPoUqCa9— Matt Zenitz (@mzenitz) December 6, 2025
If I were Penn St, I would be after the Iowa St AD too. That's impressive work.
hard to feel anything besides this way considering he had a pretty downward trend with every passing year and was especially disappointing after Bud retired. and he hasn't sniffed a football since we fired him
"Bowl" matchups should be in the pre season. Make week 1 "bowl" week when the weather's nice and people are more likely to travel given it's not holiday season.
The poor pac2, they can't keep a coach to save their lives.
Campbell to Penn St and they significantly increased their budget in the process
SOURCES: Penn State is committing roughly $30 million in NIL money and $17 million in staff pool (assistant coaches, support staff, etc.) to Matt Campbell. pic.twitter.com/CSw9JDIzD1— Matt Fortuna (@Matt_Fortuna) December 6, 2025
Iowa State didn't wait long in announcing his replacement

Sources: Jimmy Rogers is set to become the next coach at Iowa State. He's the first-year head coach at Washington State and won a national title at South Dakota State in 2023 as the head coach there. pic.twitter.com/c7jMbRjNrO— Pete Thamel (@PeteThamel) December 6, 2025
with a generous helping of gravy
Wasn't he at Boston College after a frosh at 'Bama?
I appreciate that Franklin stuck to his structured system. In the players' position, I'd prefer to be able to predict how much I'm going to get as well as what I need to do (if anything) to earn more. Knowing my coach will bend things for the hot name of the moment would lead me to believe other things are flexible, too.
Young people with lots of disposable income and that special invincible mentality we all have at that age spells disaster a lot of the time. There has to be some kind of structure in place or things will go bad no matter how many stars our recruits have.
Pretty certain they will lose this case since
Liquidated damages are not legally allowed to be used as punishment or primarily as an incentive to keep someone from breaking a contract.
Can't see how that clause is viewed any other way and I hope Georgia gets hit with the legal fees for the player as well for wasting everyone's time

# | It's James Franklin SZN - Winter 2025-26 Recruiting Thread Thoughts on Boo Carter from Tennessee as a transfer?
So they only paid $30k and are trying to get $390k from him? Not sure that is going to work, this will be interesting to see how much of a contract is enforceable.
They all need nil bonuses associated with them and the calendar needs an overhaul
Fuente deserves some credit, but it certainly seems like he coasted on Beamer's guys and Bud helped keep the ship afloat.
My wife and I were just talking about this.
The days of players opting to play bowl games for the bowl swag are gone now with NIL, etc.
AD Kraft be all like 'new strategy: get me a list of all the coaches that DONT have Sexton as their agent, pronto!'
I think he spent his freshman year at Bama before transferring to BC.
More fuel on the fire for JMFF. They found all that money for Campbell but not for him? Crazy
