Penn State fired James Franklin after the Nittany Lions lost three straight to No. 3 Oregon, a winless UCLA team, and a 3-2 Northwestern team that usually rides to the bottom of the Big Ten. This news shocked the entire college football world, even though it was sort of seen coming. The Franklin couldn't win in the big games, and then losing to UCLA and Northwestern was just the icing on the cake.
Now, with a job as high-profile as Penn State open, no name seems to be off the table according to the media, including Ohio State head coach Ryan Day.
