James Franklin gives great advice to ‘bored’ player through Twitter

James Franklin is keeping a watchful eye on his players, not only on the field, but in social media as well.

Four-star cornerback and Penn State early-enrollee Lamont Wade is still getting used to college life. And it appears that he’s still trying to find a good way to spend what little spare time he has.

So, when Wade tweeted out that he was bored on Tuesday evening he was probably hoping to get some advice from his friends. Instead, he got a response from his new head coach:

study, watch film!

That probably wasn’t exactly what Wade had in mind, but he still took Franklin’s advice:

just pulled the playbook out 😅

Wade might be a little more careful with his social media accounts from now on, knowing that Franklin is like Big Brother when it comes to his team.

At least he shouldn’t have too many boring evenings in Happy Valley, anymore.
