some sour grapes didn't-want-him-anyway tweets re: Jalen Hurd. Funny thing is, they may have had nothing to do with Jalen as they were tweeted yesterday. But I will take any national criticism of Franklin-- who, frankly, can suck it.

All Flea'd from FL98:

Andy Staples ‏@Andy_Staples
A sour-grapey tasting tweet from James Franklin after a big in-state RB commits to Tennessee does not advance Vandy's cause.

Mark Ennis ‏@Mengus22
James Franklin sounds like a sore loser. https://twitter.com/jamesfranklinvu/statuses/312005451669729280 …

Mark Ennis ‏@Mengus22
A coach. A grown man. Dropping to Twitter to subtweet a recruit. Incredible.

"We didn't want you, anyway." Not the best look. RT @Mengus22: James Franklin sounds like a sore loser. https://twitter.com/jamesfranklinvu/statuses/312005451669729280 … …

He's an idiot, being a prick to the state's #1 recruit gets noticed.

This is one of those gray areas with the new rules concerning social media.  In the past it was a recruiting violation for a coach to mention or refer to a recruit before they had signed a letter of intent.  

Interesting to see if anything comes out of this.  

EDIT: And shall I add, James Franklin really is an ass clown.  His star has peaked and he'll fall just as quickly as he rose.

Hope so.  This feels like the beginning of the end.

If UT gets back to prominence it will be harder for him to keep bringing in good recruits to Vandy. I expect he will leave for another job in 1-2 years.
