Coach Fran’s Walking Papers
In this week’s College Football Mailbag, a reader asks Stewart Mandel this question: We all know Dennis Franchione made a mistake of monumental proportions with his now-infamous “VIP newsletter.” I was already on the “Fire Fran” bandwagon after the colossal beatdown in Miami.
