I think VT will fill the position fast because they don't want Franklin to hold out long. Offer him the job and he can just chill and observe the team for the next few gams to evaluate the staff and the players.

HELLO AGAIN, Guest! We are back, live! We're still doing some troubleshooting and maintenance to fix a few remaining issues but everything looks stable now (except front page which we're working on over next day or two) Thanks for your patience and support! MUCH appreciated! --Brett (BamaNation) if you see any problems - please post them in the Troubleshooting board!
I found this thoughtful: While LSU and Florida are battling-out the Lane Lottery ... Auburn and Arkansas should turn their attentions on locking-down a NOT KIFFIN coach before the loser has to fight for him.
And "him" is Key, from Tech.

SMU gave him several million reasons to stay where he is.
The Tin foil hat brigade over there say he’s already in town talking to the interim ad and they’re offering 60 over 3 years…..very sensible folks over there
Of course they think that. Nick Saban once say he did not want to end up coaching as long as Bowden and JoePa. Saban got out of coaching for several reasons. There is zero percent chance he goes back to LSU. But I understand that until LSU introduces a new coach, there are corndoggies who believe Saban will come back and rescue them.
I think SMU is locking him down.
Lashlee is getting good money at a place where the pressure is neglible compared to the Barn...
Smartly continuing to build his coaching skills and resume before taking on a bigger school.
Just idle musings on my part, I think he’s done coaching……BUT if he were to go back, I’ve wondered if it would be LSU , or Alabama, or bust. They know a lot of people in BR and I think that they enjoyed it there.
There's no upside to getting back into coaching, but there are a lot of downsides. I've seen crazier things but I would be shocked if he took the LSU job or got back into coaching at all.
CNS said the hardest part about retirement would be not being a part of a team. He has a new team at ESPN.
As my father used to say: If CNS gets back into coaching, I'll eat my hat.
With SMU money and openly paying players, he could turn them into the next powerhouse, who knows.
Saban has seen the New World and he does not like what he sees.
Saban is 74 years old, in good health, but he knows all about the retirement go-go years, the slow-go years, and the no-go years. He wonders how may go-go years he has. He has money beyond his ability to spend, or his extended family, and he has not stopped earning.
If DeBoer had face-planted badly, I think he might have returned as an interim coach but it would not be for the money. But that has not happened and he is not going to coach anywhere else.
