Franchione Returns to Coaching at Texas State

SAN MARCOS, Texas (AP) — Dennis Franchione has been hired at Texas State, returning to college football after three years.

Texas State introduced the 59-year-old Franchione on Friday. He coached the Bobcats in the early 1990s when the school was called Southwest Texas State.

Franchione's last job was at Texas A&M. He resigned in 2007 after a disappointing 7-5 season that included embarrassing revelations of him selling inside information about the program in a secret newsletter.

Franchione also coached at Alabama and preceded Gary Patterson at TCU.

Wow, that school is moving on up!  They used to just be the state school for the SW part of the state.  Now they can suck in honor of the whole state!

He has good help there in one of his WRs. Nutt recruited him for Arkansas as a QB and look where he wound up.  :gig:
