This would've been the most Penn State hiring of all time:
Nugget of the day from Bill Parcells' book: After firing Joe Paterno, Penn State contacted Parcells to see if he'd be interested in the job.

I'm not sold on James Franklin yet — my initial read is he's an above average recruiter/average game day coach — but the idea of hiring Parcells, a guy who was like 70 at the time and whose last collegiate coaching job was at Air Force in 1978, is something that I would believe to be parody if it weren't coming from Parcells directly.
