During the 2025 college football season, one of the first major shakeups in the coaching carousel was the firing of head coach James Franklin by the Penn State Nittany Lions in his 12th season at the helm.
Franklin won 104 games and a Big Ten title during his 12-year run at Penn State. The Lions also made the college playoff semifinal last season.
One month after James Franklin's firing, Penn State has assembled a long list of potential replacements it will be looking at for its next head coach.
