FROM MORNING CALL
Penn State made it official Saturday, naming James Franklin as its 16th head football coach.
The search, which began officially New Year's Day when Bill O'Brien resigned after two seasons, ended when the Penn State Board of Trustees' compensation committee unanimously approved Franklin's contract 6-0.
CBS Sports reported that Franklin signed a 6-year deal worth up to $4.5 million per year. Terms of the contract are scheduled to be released later Saturday. One board member called it an "excellent contract for Penn State and for James Franklin."
