Blinn coaches have area ties
Tuesday, December 1, 2009
BRENHAM, Texas -- Blinn College head coach Brad Franchione has fond memories of Southeast Kansas and hopes to forge an even greater tie with the area by winning the Citizens Bank Bowl in Pittsburg Sunday. When he steps on the field at Carnie Smith Stadium on Sunday, he will be following in the footsteps of his father, Dennis Franchione, who coached the Pittsburg State Gorillas from 1985-1989.
