After some intense rumors about James Franklin to Virginia Tech, things have cooled off over the last couple of days. It feels like if it is going to happen, it's going to happen soon, or it's not even going to become reality.
With the large number of jobs already open, you have to think that Franklin and his agent, Jimmy Sexton, are using Virginia Tech as leverage for other jobs. Which jobs Franklin would be interested in remains to be seen. There are some jobs in the SEC at Arkansas, LSU, Florida, and Auburn.
There are other jobs currently open, but when it comes to Franklin, he may be waiting to see what happens at the end of the regular season and which other jobs could open.
