Too little too late for Franklin. Where was this team dedication the last 3 years? His teammates know it wasn't there and Franklin has missed his chance. Time for everyone to move on to the next QB whoever that may be.

Dave Matter ?@Dave_Matter 15h Talked to QB coach George Whitfield. He raved about James Franklin, who spent spring break working with him in San Diego


This comment gives me reserved optimism in a sense because Whitfield is unbiased and has worked with great college QB's. He also went on to refer to Franklin as one of the nations "best kept secrets". Pretty easy to keep a player a secret when he misses half the games.

quote:

Dave Matter ?@Dave_Matter 17h Pinkel on Franklin's success before 2012's injuries: "Fans forget and everybody loves the next quarterback."


This comment makes me think there was no real QB competition and that Pinkel is not ballsy enough to make a move if another player deserves to start over Franklin. HCGP doesnt like to sit an incumbent in favor of an underclassman. Hope I am wrong. Again if Franklin IS the guy and performs the best then I want him on the field. I just wish he would have to earn it.
