Anyone hear anything on Bryan Haines to Penn State?
- Thread starter sparkeyreturns
- Start date
Saying 'interviewed' doesn't sound great. 
Well, I'm guessing he'll stay unless they offer can't refuse level money. If they talk way over 2 mil? Like 2.5+ . He should listen. Doesn't mean he'll go. But Penn State is always going to be loaded with talent and NIL money for football. Good spot for a coordinator. Doubt Franklin is going anywhere soon. And even if he does you won't hurt yourself if you've done well there.
We'll get a good one if he leaves. But I hope he stays. He's good. And I hate the players to have to learn new schemes and terminology, that could be setback for a year or two. And could easily hurt recruiting this year since the new guy wouldn't have been in on the relationship building yet.

Agree with "doesn't sound great." Just read an article on a Penn State site talking all about it. Touting our #2 defense and CFP run. Nittany Sports Now if interested. Didn't get a good vibe. Sucks
I get Penn State is a big program and he would get to coach players that have more athleticism/potential. There is more pressure and career risk there, but he may be up for it. State College is pretty crappy, but a football guy probably doesn't care.
The money probably isn't that different, he's had huge pay increases since coming to IU. I was hoping he was part of the core staff that would keep building here and eventually he would take a HC job and that would be cool.
Who knows. Maybe he is tired of Cignetti, I don't know everything behind the scenes.
Bright side is we have a lot of $ to poach our next DC if he leaves.

There is a lot of speculation when a team is successful as IU, but we have no idea what IU's assistant coaches want to do.
What confuses me is how many coaches this guys loses. Also, outside of Manny Diaz, who was already a high level coach, none is his assistants have gotten head coaching jobs.
Word is he's been interviewed along with the safeties coach for the Cleveland Browns, who has ties to Diaz, the former DC, and is an up and comer. These seems like correct rumors. Latest on PSU site is that Franklin is in LA talking with the present USC DC. Don't know if that is accurate.
I know the fans really want that guy. I think he comes from the PSU family.
have to give the fans what they want
Yes....but Diaz left for HC position, and the story is that Allen left to be closer to his adult daughters, who both reside in that region. Also, he kept the old OC for a couple of years after the whole fanbase wanted him gone.
Things I've read from USC people is that the DC there is interested in the PSU job.
Apparently he was just doing his top 5 teams and that was his way of saying IU and Penn State were tied at 4/5
Penn St and Texas will both end the season ranked ahead of IU.
We should come in at 6 or 7 which would be an amazing accomplishment for year one.
