Dan Patrick’s sources are at it again! They confirm that James Franklin is at the top of the list for the vacant USC head coaching job and that, regardless of whether he takes the job or not, he is bound to get a huge contract and become the highest paid coach in college football. He can use USC’s interest as leverage if he wants to stay at Penn State or take the offer in Southern California, but he’s clearly heading toward a higher tax bracket. Dan reminds us this is just business as usual for college coaches and, like everybody else, they just want their money.
