5 MINUTES AGO: “Please try to understand my husband” – James Franklin’s wife spoke up to explain the reasons for his and Penn State’s defeat, receiving sympathy from fans. Before the match, James Franklin was facing a serious mental health problem, which prevented him from showing 100% of his tactical ability and led to a big mistake during the game. “We are extremely sorry, but my husband gave his all.
