Dunno the details of the contract.  Really not relevant to us.  But the Vandy vacancy IS.  I wonder if Mason gets an interview.  I also wonder why Mason is touted for the two openings with departed (promoted) black coaches.  What's up with that?  Two schools that are proving/have proved something profound and want more of the same...or just media laziness in immediately considering those jobs "slots" for black coaches?  [Or, maybe not. Petrino got the job] My impression formed from afar is that Mason is less of a dynamic personality compared to the irrepressible Franklin and Strong.  Could be a great head coach but my impression is these turn-arounds seem to be lead by pretty robust personalities: Harbaugh, Strong, Franklin.  I have no idea what Mason is like with the players and with recruits, but I have watched Franklin up close in the SEC and he comes across as a force, ...which was key at Vandy and probably what they're looking for at Penn St.
