I put the blame on Mullen, his bravado just won’t allow him to see that Franks just isn’t going to happen. He needs to get off his high horse and do what it takes to recruit a great QB. It’s as if he’s afraid of hurting Franks’ feelings by sitting him. SMH, Spurrier never had that attitude and he was able to recruit who he needed to get the job done.

I agree with you . The offensive struggles are on Mullen . I think he is playing Franks because Franks cockyness keeps from falling apart . Also he is not running Franks much . Our offense is a lot better when Franks runs the ball . We have some good deep threat WRs and we need to use them more along with Franks legs . It seems like early in the year Mullen is scared to run Franks . I feel like the offense could improve a lot by running Franks . It opens up the pass and rushing game . We don’t need big plays just first downs to get the offense in going smoothly.

This is actually a very solid point but I don't think it's so much Mullen's fault.
He inherited all of his QBs except for Emory, and he wants to save Emory for another year and to some extent I understand. Emory Jones isn't even close to the same guy as Franks regarding the attention calling.
Really, he'll likely be the answer next year, but man are we going to have to suck it up this year.
Also:
Franks wouldn't last a single game with Spurrier. Kid doesn't listen.
