After Franklin led the Commodores to bowl eligibility for the fifth time in school history, Vanderbilt vice chancellor David Williams said Friday the 39-year-old will receive "extended years and a substantial increase in compensation." The private school's policy is to not disclose contract details.

Franklin also added that members of his coaching staff have turned down opportunities to interview for head coaching jobs. Defensive coordinator Bob Shoop withdrew his name from consideration for the vacancy at Richmond, an FCS school.
