Penn State's coaching search enters Week 2, which means it's just getting started. James Franklin is off to find a new place to win a national championship, and Penn State Athletic Director Pat Kraft is conducting an insulated process to identify his successor.

Kemon Spell decommitted from the Penn State Nittany Lions last week after the program fired head coach James Franklin. Spell, who is from McKeesport, PA, had been committed to Penn State for over a year.

Former Penn State coach James Franklin told ESPN's "College GameDay" that he "can't wait" to coach again and plans to "go win a national championship somewhere else now."

The former Penn State head coach is a very polarizing figure in college football. His QB1certainly had his back.

Gone are the days of Florida State and Clemson dominating the league, with programs like Virginia and Georgia Tech now having a real shot at the College Football Playoff via the ACC Championship Game. There’s no reason why Virginia Tech couldn’t return to that conversation with the right coach.

The Nittany Lions will be led by interim head coach Terry Smith and first-time starting quarterback Ethan Grunkemeyer against the Hawkeyes.

As the team headed to Iowa to take on the Hawkeyes, Penn State players and coaches wore t-shirt with the word "IF" in bold letters on the front. Since the team's coach literally just got fired, do these shirts have anything to do with Franklin?
