Franks does not get paid to play. He's not a professional. He is doing the best he can out there and it is fricked up calling out a scholarship athlete. 1 bad play could be the last for Franks. He, just like every other player risks their lives going out there. Years later Franks will have football related injuries that the University won't give a shite about and neither will you (been there done that). UF will not pay Franks medical bills years later. Neither will McElwain but I digress. McElwain, however gets paid very well to determine who he wants on the field. He gets paid to coach up the players that he wants on the field. The only people playing are the people Mac decides to play.

Blaming players is bullshite. It is fricking foul and pathetic when they put in blood, sweat and tears that you would never know what it's like.




He gets paid with that scholarship and gets a free ride to one of the best educations money can buy.

And ho ly frick, why weren't you around to defend Driskel like I did?

Franks lost this, he cracked under pressure -- happens all the time in the NFL and college. Players lose the game by themselves quite a bit.

He does nothing a quarterback does, and holy frick man: The NFL picks up duds and busts alllllll the time -- and most of those guys have leagues of experts to help them pick those quarterbacks.

Of course, it's not all on him completely, there were many things we could do (take him out, for instance), but when it counted most he didn't come through.

He doesn't have the confidence -- and that's not something any coach in the world can just give you.

Next man up.

Yes I wanted Franks because I was hoping and praying he'd be coached up and ready but he's not. Hence the lost season. Ldr wasn't good enough to save us from this either.

Shut the frick up. I'm a college student too. I understand and respect what these guys do. I've played sports. I know the work they put in and that goes into playing sports. You don't have to speak for them. They can handle a little criticism.

They sign up to play fricking football. If you're so appalled and care so much about post football injuries and the university not paying his medical bills, why do you support it by watching it, contributing to the university, going to games, etc? They risk their live's by their OWN INDIVIDUAL choice. That's not on me or you or anybody else. If I see a guy that didn't perform in the game even though he was put in position to succeed based on in game calls, it's not that I'm trying to pile on him, it's reality. Don't be a fricking pansy and act like it's anything personal or more than that. It's what I observed from the game. I said that Mac and Nuss have done a poor job of developing him to this point and that's on them. Don't try to come at me with the "oh you don't care about his well being beyond football" argument when you watch football and support the sport just like I do. It's hypocritical and makes you look like a bitch.

I counted 7 times during the game that he did this while having a receiver open down field. Unacceptable.

If his first read is covered, he's lost. Ppl can talk -and i did too- about LDR's physical limitations but mentally he is years ahead of Franks. We win the last 2 with LDR.

You are a dumb arse blaming 1 player on a CFB team when there were dozens of mistakes made in that game. You have no fricking idea the work they put in because you are a smug frick that thinks they're there to step n fetchit for your bitch arse. I'm not speaking for him, I speak for myself and you can frick off with that bullshite blaming players. It is never acceptable to blame student/athletes for trying on the football field for your fricking enjoyment. NEVER! frick off.

Are you fricking kidding me? Free ride??? My daughters day care cost more money than what it cost for that scholarship. Stop the bullshite.

To blame Franks and to not put any blame on the coaches is asinine. The coaches put him in the game in the first damn place. If I put Humpty Dumpty in at QB and he fails, is it his fault for sucking or my fault for giving him the chance?

I fractured my neck and got a concussion that ended my football career. I came back from that and played catcher in baseball all through high school. I worked my arse off and earned scholarships to small schools in baseball and turned them down to pursue a law degree at UF. You don't fricking know who I am or whether or not I'm "smug". I watched the game in person and I rewatched it tonight. There were SEVERAL opportunities for Franks to make a play down field to an open receiver that he missed.

You get mad at Mac for saying that guys are trying their best and defend Franks by saying he's trying his best? Trying your best is to be expected! It's not like I'm tagging Feleipe on twitter and telling him to kill himself for losing the game. I watched the game and i saw the receivers we had open, and I made the observation that if he would've hit those receivers, we would've won the game. I've defended Franks in the past, and I still like Franks and think he has some things that he is pretty solid at. But he fricked up yesterday several times and it costed us the game. Why is it wrong to criticize that? frick you, you criticized the OL today. How is that any different? Don't you realize those are KIDS out there? Trying their absolute best? They should be immune from any negative comments! fricking hypocrite.

We wrote off Driskel as a never gonna be. He transfers has great coaching and is now in the NFL. Frank's is a freshman he could do the same with good coaching.

Quit with the 300 yard BS averaging 300 yards ranks you in the 100s still on offense.That 300 yard offensive explosion dropped us in total offense rankings. We have 4 passing touchdowns this year. 1 is a hail Mary. 2 were uncovered. No passing TDs in our losses. That is unacceptable. Has Muschamp or Mcelwain recruited better on offense. Especially skill positions? Where are the results. Swain, Hammond both highly rated WR's.

Don't forget Frank's committed as Mac's chosen one. Eason was still interested we chose Frank's.

We can all agree Frank's is partially to blame and so are the coaches for this game loss.

He was not a ''chosen one'', at all. He was the best player available at the time and has *always* been a work in progress.

I think olemc, myself and Reel had said before (I don't remember the numbers) that we wanted Del Rio to be given the opportunity before the year started -- because it's obvious. Franks cannot run an offense when it's against smart, strong defenses.

This isn't a league where you just come in and throw everywhere, the SEC has excellent defense all around. It's a chess match. He has to make reads.

Agreed to an extent. I think they should have played Zaire more in the last few games -- given him a drive or two. They called a damn good game last night, though.

Damn good, right where you want to be. Players wide open all over the field, running game got 150+ yards (248 with Franks' big run). I mean, really, you can't ask for more production when you have 371 yards of total offense.

But, Franks has to execute. If he executes, we win by 28 easy. Our 3rd down stats are terrible with him, and it's because he freezes up.

The coaching staff needs to put Malik in the next game, or they're just begging to get a bunch of people fired.

Don't ever bring up Grier for what he is doing at West Virginny...its the fricking big little 12 and defense is optional...I think WV gave up over 500 yds of offense, hell, maybe 600 yds. Who the frick cares what he does? I don't and he lied to coaches about PEDS and then wanted a guarantee that he'd be the starter? You wanna be a starter don't take PEDS pal. I applaud the coaches for doing the right thing.

Most of you posters wanted Franks over LDR and I feel pretty confident that we would have won the last two close games with LDR at the controls. He would get us the critical third downs that Franks just cant at this stage of his career.

Naysayers were saying Mac cant recruit and that's turned into bullshite....he got Malik Davis and a whole slew of secondary help that will win games for us. The agenda of some is quite clear....they wanna stir the pot and make our recruiting harder. Why? Hmmmmmm.

You're a fricking idiot reel. Malik Davis is a stud but what about the other 20+ 3*s that haven't done shite? The 2017 DB class is playing because they have to because Mac missed out on the 6 guys in 2016 who can't play at this level. Gardner was the only stud. Keep buying that lie Mac told about Grier
