James Franklin on the Perception of Penn State & a crazy NFL Draft Night | Big Noon Conversations

Fox Sports’ lead college football analyst Joel Klatt sits down with Penn State Head Coach James Franklin to discuss the Nittany Lions’ program entering the 2024 season. Coach Franklin breaks down the changes on the coaching staff including what new OC Andy Kotelnicki will bring to the offense. Klatt and Coach discuss the impact of having an exclusive 4-team Playoff over the last 10 years and how it has affected the perception of both Franklin and his program. They also share optimism towards the new 12-team format and consider what a potential Playoff game in December at Beaver Stadium would look like. Coach Franklin tells his 2024 NFL Draft night story where he raced across the state of Maryland to try to be with two of his players before they heard their names called in the First Round.
