franklin's interview tonight on rivals was very telling. far as i can tell, he feels hampered by two things. one, he pretty much said we don't have the talent or the speed to run his offense, and that he's struggling to make some kind of dumbed-down version of it that fits our kids and still works. two, he hinted that not all the coaches are on the same page offensively. it's time to get more talented on the offensive side of the ball (ONE bigtime WR might be enough if he can draw double teams and open it up for the others) and let go of some of tubs' bbq buddies (knox for DAMN sure) if we want to be who we can be on offense. i have a lot more respect for him after watching that interview. the dude is super candid and is shooting shit straight. i've had a hard time getting it straight how i feel about him as a coach, but as a person, i respect everything but his hygiene.
He's an excuse-making COCKSUCKER. Super candid MY RAW ASS. He's pointing at everybody else.
Well, if we had some good athletes I could run my system. My system doesn't suck. It's the players.
Well, if the coaches would do what I tell them, we could run my system. My system doesn't suck. It's the other coaches. Just ask Rush Probst if you don't believe me. Hell, he was a winner at Hoover. Hoover's bigger than AUBURN, you dumbasses. I done BEEN to Hoover. I seen how many people was there. Don't tell me my system won't work, because I done seen it work in high school.
He is the worst offensive coordinator in the SEC. Was Greg Knox up in the booth making him call DUMBASS plays? Were the players to blame when Chris Todd was named the starter because Franklin likes the cut of his jib or the sway in his handlebars while he completely ignores the fact that Todd can't throw a football four yards?
Tony Franklin is all about himself and his "system" Well, his SYSTEM is a great big pile of TURDS. And he's the king shit.
If we "want to be who we can be on offense" we FIRE his monkey ass today, send him back to Troy or Louisiana Tech or some high school and make plans to hire Pat Nix or somebody who has a clue about college offensive gameplanning.
