Franchione Gets No Pat on Back From Dye

So what does Pat Dye, the former Auburn coach, think of the job Dennis Franchione has done at Texas A&M? Not much. "Are they pitiful? Those players stand around like they got lice falling off them. Alabama folks ought to be saying their prayers (Franchione is) in Texas." Dye said he watched part of the Aggies' loss to Colorado and couldn't believe Franchione's demeanor during the game: "They're being taken to the woodshed and he squatted down there on the sideline like he's watching a bobber in some creek bank somewhere. ... I don't understand that. If they go on and play like they're playing, I would say they will have a new football coach at Texas A&M next year."
