When FSU tried to turn the program into a run program, they lost a ton of potential prospects at both quarterback and wide receiver. FSU is and should always be a throw first, run second type of team. They need to get back to that if they are going to have success again.
As far as Maryland goes, that situation reeks almost as bad as FSU's situation..
Doesn't Texas have a coach-in-waiting also? It seems to work for them.. what's the difference?

I think their arrangement is more like Brown gets to leave whenever he wants, whereas at least in the Maryland situation Friedgen has to be gone after 2011 anyway or else Franklin is owed $1 million.
Of course, if the team stinks next year I can't see the school allowing Franklin to take over at any point.

Bobby had to go eventually, but like you said, him being pressured out was such a low class move by FSU..that it makes me sick to even support them.

Best part...The Gator Bowl is trying to get them to play West Virginia, passing over four or five more-deserving ACC teams (not including those that get to higher bowls).
Awesome
