Whoever added the Little Debbie references is freakin' hilarious! Gig 'em! -- Mark, Fightin' Texas Aggie Class of 2002
Whenever I, or anyone, has referenced his controversial exits from TCU and Alabama, that information has been erased. Those two incidents are a large part of his public persona, and should be included in the article. MaroonFrog 23:49, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
Here's the link Corpx 18:51, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
I have a problem with the title of this section. It should be left at Resignation. "Downfall" is POV whereas his resignation is fact. There's also this:
"After Franchione led the Aggies to a 38–30 victory over the 13th-ranked Texas Longhorns, he announced his "resignation" (which most believe is A&M's way of allowing him to save himself the embarrassment of being fired)..."
The word resignation should not be in quotes. It was indeed a resignation. As far as the parenthetical text, while I agree that it is likely accurate, is it supported by the sources? If it is, I apologize for missing it. If it is not, it should be removed or a source should be added.
I know emotions always run high at times like this. Nevertheless, everyone should take a step back and make sure that what he or she is writing is in keeping with a quality article. → Wordbuilder ( talk) 18:47, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

The page is about the coach, not the school per se.
The chart details are forcing the reader to read footnotes to clarify that the information in the chart is incorrect. Footnotes should not be mandatory reading, but they are here if you want to know his real bowl record. My English teacher would have burned me if she had to go back and forth between the document and the footnotes to ascertain what was what.
He left TCU in 2000 before the bowl, but yet the bowl is mentioned with a footnote. Does not make sense and is confusing. If he wasn't there, he wasn't there. The coach that coached the bowl should be the only reference to the bowl in their wiki.
Summary Section vs Chart Section
And the summary section does not include the loss that his replacement suffered. To be consistent with the chart section, the summary section should show Bowls: 4-5 with a footnote that he didn't lose 5 which would be silly. The summary section shows what he actually won and lost as coach, which it should. The chart section is showing he lost the game with additional reading below to clarify that no he didn't lose the bowl, he wasn't even at the school.
Actually, the summary section needs updating to show he finished 4-4, not 4-3.
