## Resource

Two years ago, nobody saw this coming—Beau Pribula and James Franklin were Penn State’s backup QB and head coach, respectively. Now, they’re rivals in Charlotte, North Carolina, representing Virginia and Virginia Tech. Pribula, who jumped from Penn State to Missouri and then landed at Virginia as the starting QB, and Franklin, fired from Penn State in October, are both thriving in new roles. Despite the rivalry brewing for their November 28th matchup, mutual respect runs deep—Franklin called Pribula “the real deal” and admitted he was heartbroken to see him go. Even as they prepare to compete, Franklin vows to be Pribula’s biggest fan… except on game day. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
