So where's James Franklin's press conference?

I was particularly interested to hear Franklin's press conference after the game. But right now the official Vandy athletic site only has some postgame quotes from him.

No video, which usually pops up within an hour of the final horn.

Meanwhile, video from Dooley's entire postgame press conference is posted on the Vol's site. Plus, Houston Nutt and Joker Phillips both sat and talked about blowout losses to the Commodores while they were separated by only a flimsy wall from the Vandy locker room, which was rocking with noisy celebration, and those rather painful interviews were posted on their school's sites soon after they were taken.

He didn't do the press conference until they got back. It happened in the last little bit and apparently it was kind of hardcore.

I saw his press conference.
Although I am a bit older, I see alot of myself in James Franklin. He's a competitor, passionate about his game,hates to lose (who doesn't?----and his body language shows it),and he's a motivator with high standards. Most of all I see him staying at Vanderbilt for some time, because I think he will take pride in what he is building (Why build it for another coach?)and wants to see the results of his handiwork. He wants results quickly, but realizes it will not be an overnight fix. I'm hoping, that Vanderbilt will give him what he requires, like any other employee at Vanderbilt (researcher, faculty, staff, etc.) so that he and his teams are successful and the University community can take even more pride in our athletics programs.
