Dennis Franchione is back in the hot seat as Texas A&M's head football coach. Online petitions calling for Franchione's firing have signatures in the thousands. Message boards have reached a near consensus against the coach. An A&M fraternity has even hung a large banner in front of its house begging the athletic department to "Fire Fran."
The Web site firefranpetition.com has received about 15,000 hits since A&M's loss to Miami, according to the site's owner, Grant Pierce. He reported that 300 new people signed his online petition Monday; bringing the total of verified signees up to more than 2,600. Nearly 200 "Can Fran" T-shirts have also been sold by the site.
