Felipe Franks starting for Florida
August 30th, 2017 at 6:03 PM ^
Redshirt freshman making his first collegiate start. Against a Don Brown defense. Good luck.
August 30th, 2017 at 6:04 PM ^
Think he might pull one of these the first time Gary/Hurst/Mone is bearing down on him?
August 30th, 2017 at 6:23 PM ^
Someone gif me the Little Giants kid sucking his head into his shoulder pads
August 30th, 2017 at 10:32 PM ^
Brucie from the Longest Yard.
BTW...who in the heck is Felipe Franks????
August 31st, 2017 at 10:56 AM ^
I suck...
August 30th, 2017 at 6:08 PM ^
BEANS AND FRANKS!
Jeez, I am shocked he beat out Zaire. But Mailk it, Mailk it a lot...
EDIT: Who wants to bet that Zaire quits the team, or waits a few more games to see if things change, then quits?
August 30th, 2017 at 7:31 PM ^
He might get a chance to play in the 2nd Q after the D-line gets a ND-style multisack on Franks.
August 30th, 2017 at 7:59 PM ^
He's there to get his masters.
August 31st, 2017 at 11:15 AM ^
Franks is probably our best bet for the future. As long as this game doesn't damage him, he's got the most potential.
August 30th, 2017 at 6:02 PM ^
He'll fit nicely inside Hurst's tummy.
August 30th, 2017 at 6:02 PM ^
First college game without his best RB and best WR and behind a suspect O-Line against Don Brown and Michigan...he gon die.
August 30th, 2017 at 6:06 PM ^
He ded
August 30th, 2017 at 6:46 PM ^
Here's a fun fact. It took until the PSU game last year before an opposing starting QB was able to make it to the end of the game. That's right: McSorley was the first QB to start and finish a game.
August 30th, 2017 at 9:01 PM ^
Coach had to slow him down - went for a field goal when they were driving down the field.
August 30th, 2017 at 7:37 PM ^
I wouldn't describe their O-line as suspect. Even with Ivey only at 80%, I think they'll be better than average. I think their fan base actually feels pretty confident about their starters, if not their depth.
I still think our D-Line will do well. But I'm not expecting a complete engulfing.
August 30th, 2017 at 10:05 PM ^
They were good at pass pro and awful at run blocking. Franks might not get vaporized but he's not going to get much help. He'll get stuck with a lot of 3rd and long situations which, well, maybe he does get vaporized after all.
August 30th, 2017 at 6:02 PM ^
I was going to post, seeing the same Feldman Tweet but then thought ....who the fuck is Feleipe Franks?!
Mr Franks, meet Mr Gary ...you will be getting to know him very well this afternoon.
August 30th, 2017 at 6:03 PM ^
Expected it. They may go through their entire depth chart by the 4th quarter.
August 30th, 2017 at 6:28 PM ^
I want my Felipe, Felipe, Felipe, Felipe, Felipe...Franks.
I want my Felipe, Felipe, Felipe, Felipe, Felipe...Franks.
Q-Beeeeeeeee, Felipe Franks (Is bout to get killed).
August 30th, 2017 at 6:06 PM ^
I look forward to this being posted 5 more times.
August 30th, 2017 at 6:09 PM ^
Underrated PR move by McElwain. If the Scarlett suspension didn't come out we wouldve had to wait until Saturday to find this out
August 30th, 2017 at 6:09 PM ^
Florida is just leaning into this pit of hellfire they have created for themselves.
This gon be good.
August 30th, 2017 at 6:10 PM ^
Best of luck to him... I have a feeling he is going to feel similar to Liufau, Holman, and Lewerke after their bouts against us last year.
August 30th, 2017 at 6:11 PM ^
I'm sure he will identity every blitz pick up.
August 30th, 2017 at 6:13 PM ^
Let me guess... Zaire got suspended?
August 30th, 2017 at 6:15 PM ^
My Gator buddy texted me and said Zaire is currently 3rd string. So if Franks gets killed, expect to see JDR. Wow.
August 30th, 2017 at 6:19 PM ^
LDR, tbh ...
August 30th, 2017 at 6:22 PM ^
Hold on, hold on, I think UF should be able to play JDR if they feel like it...
August 30th, 2017 at 6:24 PM ^
Lol i meant LDR. Might as well give Jack a shot too.
August 30th, 2017 at 6:28 PM ^
A Nuss offense and JDR defense would be the football equivalent of a butter sandwich.
Bland, boring and pretty terrible all around.
lol
August 30th, 2017 at 6:30 PM ^
minus the butter
August 30th, 2017 at 8:25 PM ^
a wish sandwich. That's where you have two slices of bread and you wish you had something to go in them...
August 31st, 2017 at 10:57 AM ^
A....
Bow

August 31st, 2017 at 12:11 AM ^
You all need to see this from the Pete Finebaum perspective: they have two QBs better than Zaire?!? Time for Michigan panic
August 30th, 2017 at 6:16 PM ^
No, he was never good to begin with.
August 30th, 2017 at 6:14 PM ^
What a nut-punch for Zaire. They get a rule changed just so you can transfer and walk into the starting QB position, only to lose it to a RS Fr making his first college start. Ouch
August 30th, 2017 at 6:18 PM ^
Zaire has had one good game his entire career. He was never going to walk into a decent starting P5 job no matter where he went.
August 30th, 2017 at 6:43 PM ^
You know, there may be a reason Zaire has attempted only 98 passes in 3 years...
August 30th, 2017 at 8:47 PM ^
Yep, probably the same reason he was a backup on a 4-8 team...
August 30th, 2017 at 6:25 PM ^
I bet they all play 3...
I bet they'll role Zaire out there on a gadget play or to play as a Wildcat QB.
I bet they'll play Del Rio when Franks is getting his shit kicked in.
August 30th, 2017 at 6:44 PM ^
That's Full Charlie Weis.
Never go Full Charlie Weis.
August 30th, 2017 at 6:16 PM ^
So just yesterday made a lunch bet with a Gator that I work with on Saturday's game. I wonder if today's two developments make him feel better or worse?
I'm still plenty nervous about Florida's defense, but dang - their offensive two-deep is more like a too-shallow!
August 30th, 2017 at 6:29 PM ^
Zing!
August 30th, 2017 at 9:01 PM ^
3 points wins this thing.
August 30th, 2017 at 6:17 PM ^
He is a big dude and currently their future at QB. I just wasn't sure if McElwain was going to throw him into the fire this early. I am guessing he didn't get what he wanted out of Zaire and Del Rio and had no choice but to give Franks the nod.
