He proved everyone that didn't believe in him right, for sure.

Although it's hard to blame him because a large portion of the fan base thinks that the four plays he did average plays are good enough.

We've had such terrible QB play that the moment we have someone mediocre or average we have to hype the man.

The last interception Frankie threw was bad. How bad you ask? It was on par with the pick 6 Tua threw in the first quarter of the NCG.
That pass should have given Miami the game.

It wasn't just that pick, because of course it was one of the worst he's ever made at the most inopportune time but that's why he's such an erratic player.

We fumbled in the red zone, driving Miami, had them completely on their heels and were pushing them around.

He fumbles a routine read option.

Next drive, he gets excited and has a decent but not great pitch, fumble, turnover.

We had the ball for two minutes in the fourth Quarter for both of the picks he threw, we held Miami to 8 yards in the third quarter.

Everything we did was in spite of him, not because of him. He hit some normal passes for other Quarterbacks and people want me to bow at his altar because he can hit a fricking pass once in an entire game.

Goddamn I hate having a shite QB. If I heard he entered the portal today I wouldn't even be worried.

If we can see the total incompetence of him can’t Coach see the same? And do something?

makes me wonder how bad the backups are. In 2015 greyson lambert was the definition of mediocre (other than the usc game) yet we kept winning very much in spite of him. For the UF game we decided eeeeh what the hell and played the backup faton bauta, and we then saw very clearly why lambert was the starter all year.

I think you still have to try when one guy isn't working.

The problem with Franks is that this is his third year starting and still makes really stupid mistakes that you normally chalk up to "youth", he's been young for four years. Gator fans tell me the same thing but there are guys who, when put in the fire, just fricking get it done.

Example: Jake Fromm as a true freshman.

Will Grier as a true freshman.

Quarterback is all about mentality. "I'm going to get this done." Franks is extremely feeble mentally and puts way too much importance in what people think about him.

That's why he struts in front of the camera, can't stay off of social media, can't stop himself from punting the ball into the stands -- these are all the signs of someone who is fragile and insecure. I have no idea what happened in his past, but in the end it doesn't matter.

Football is and has always been about being tough, mentally, physically and some might even say spiritually. It's not for the weak, and I have no idea why every time this idiot does something Florida fans treat him like some po' puppy who just don't know no better.

frick him. Next guy up. If he got injured tomorrow our backups should be ready, it's Mullen's job.

Time to just hold our nose and start getting snaps for the future.
