It was 22 days since Penn State's last deal meet, but it was clear the team didn't miss a beat. The Nittany Lion wrestlers defeated Purdue 34-3 in Rec Hall Sunday afternoon, dropping only one bout to the Boilermakers. David Taylor added his 47th career pin, and four Nittany Lions had major decisions.

It's been less than 24 hours, and James Franklin has already started working his recruiting magic, as two members of the class of 2014 previously committed to Vanderbilt have followed the Nittany Lions' new head coach to Happy Valley.

James Franklin said this afternoon that he hopes to be the head coach of the Penn State football team for a long time. If that's the case, it looks like he will earn quite a lot of money along the way according to a Proposed Financial Term Sheet released by GoPSUSports.com today.

For a few minutes, it looked like Penn State basketball team was going to flip the script, and do to IU hoops what IU football did to Penn State back in October. However, it was for naught, as the Hoosiers took down the Nittany Lions, 79-76.

Everyone knew that James Franklin was charismatic. Fewer, perhaps, anticipated his captivating performance an hour in the jam-packed Beaver Stadium media room as he addressed Nittany Nation for the first time.

James Franklin spoke to the media for the first time briefly while entering the BJC this afternoon.
