Penn State Players and Fans React to James Franklin's Firing
James Franklin's era at Penn State has come to an end after nearly 12 seasons and two disastrous losses, despite initial national championship expectations.
Franklin's achievements include winning the 2016 Big Ten Championship and being one game away from the national title game less than 12 months ago.
- He entered the season with high expectations after bringing the Nittany Lions back to relevance.
- Leading into the White Out game against Oregon, expectations had never been higher for Franklin and Penn State.
Plenty of people made jokes about Franklin's hefty $50 million buyout, the second-largest ever for a college football coach, behind former Texas A&M head coach Jimbo Fisher.
Penn State players, including linebacker Tony Rojas, took to social media to react to the news, while fans felt the team had plateaued and it was time for a change.
