Oh, I;ll back Franks 100%.

My disappointment is that it is clear we will run and run often.

I thought Trask had that over the middle and fade route going for him.

I'm 100% Gator but pining over what if Kerwin was coaching? (Sorry, I dozed off there for a minute)

AND you kids get off my lawn.

Trask fans will see him at some point fairly early during the season after the inevitable Franks running injury.

This tells me one thing:

We're a "RUN FIRST" offense, especially against teams like Charleston Southern, KY, and Col. ST.

The only anomaly in his offense was Dak Prescott. Other than that, they’ve always been a power spread team.

Over/under on how many games Franks lasts until Trask or EJ are named the new starter?

Franks could break his all time passing stats in this game which wouldn't be that hard since I think he's only hit around 220 yards once. What do you think his stat line will be?

I'll go 250 yds passing (most of that YAC), 70 yrds rushing, 2 Passing TD, 1 rushing TD, 1 int and he probably takes a couple sacks he shouldn't.

He is athletic. He ran reasonably well in HS. He can throw the ball from one endzone to the other.

Thats all I got.

Unfortunately, it is really all we have.
I think the endzone to endzone throws are what “intrigues” the coaches. They get seduced by thinking he can just out arm everybody like he did to win the TN game. Just chuck it long and let Grimes and Jefferson go get it. Hail Mary every third down. It’ll work!

Didn't Jamarcus Russel do this, or through from his knees 80 yds?

To the OP or mods, you can take the question mark out of the title at this point.

Im going to practice what I preach I will be cheering loudly for Franks to succeed Sat.
I hope the doomers and gloomers don't boo the Kid if he makes a mistake.

A little less excited now for the game than I was before the announcement, still pumped for football, just feel like we know Franks. We’ll really learn nothing from this game anyway unless he falls flat on his face.

Either he has improved or the others have not impressed. Hopefully if a short leash is needed Mullen will use it. I will be cheering loud or drinking heavily, probably both. It should not matter one bit in this game. Like I said SHOULD NOT!
