I like the rothlisberger or winston comparison better for franks. Or Cardale Jones, if you will. Which, truth be told, would be better for you guys anyway.

Torrance Gibson is Terrelle Pryor 2.0

He is being compared to a mobile Zach Mettenberger. Think Elway..pocket passer that can get out of pocket with his feet if need be


He reminds me much more of Mettenberger than almost any other QB mentioned. Forget how slow Mett may be.

Pryor was 6'4, 225 and ran a 4.4 40-yard dash out of high school... I'm assuming that with him being a dual threat he must have a relatively close 40 time to this.


Wow! That's quite a jump in logic.

I'd be willing to bet that his 40 time is not below 4.6. Very few human beings are that fast.

If there is anyone who Franks compares to in recent years, it is Blake Bortles. Pryor was a freak athlete, and while Franks is extremely athletic, he is not quite the runner and athletic freak Pryor was. Like Bortles he is big and tall (will get some more muscle on him once he gets to campus and starts working out). Great arm strength, and pocket passer by nature like Bortles. However certainly has the ability to run and improvise to make big yardage plays with his feet if needed.

All in on Franks as LSU's future QB

Franks just retweeted a Texas Longhorns tweet about how they offered him. Then retweeted a second tweet from the same longhorn site about he is likely to go to MLB. Nothing to freak out over but it may hint at his interest in being drafted over college.
