Four-Star quarterback Feleipe Franks from Crawfordville, FL recently spoke with Zach Abolverdi with the AJC.com to talk about his commitment to Florida and how solid he is with the Gators.

Franks, who recently flipped his commitment from LSU to Florida, will receive an in-home visit from offensive coordinator Cam Cameron to see if he can get Franks back to Baton Rouge.

The chances of that happening seem less likely, according Franks:

quote:
"I am pretty sold on Florida,” Franks said. "I didn’t really like de-commiting in the first place but I am going to do what’s best for me and my family. To get that out of the way, it really felt good."

Franks also added that he thinks Florida is the best place for him "to get developed at my position."

Here is his full video interview:

Yeah, those Florida quarterbacks have really been burning things up since Spurrier left.

Franks and no beans.

idlewatcher•101 months

We'll be sure to stop by to see you on the bench when Eason is taking the snaps

AlabamasSalaryCap•101 months

Wouldn't want him to come back anyway. Hanging your committed team out to dry this late in the recruiting season is a shitty thing to do. I hope he enjoys second string for the next 4 years.

schwartzy•101 months

QB development is a problem here. He alluded to it.

jacktown•101 months

can just move on this kid doesn't wanna be here sure there is a pro style qb somwhere that would love to be a Tiger. Hell there is kid here in mobile that has never lost a game named Tyler Johnson of Spanish fort h.s. That would kill for an Lsu offer. We offered his brother a lb. for the class of 2017 they both winners an great kids!!

Wish him luck with being Tiger Bait

Eauxld Geauxld•101 months

Can we please just move on. Flipper Franks is not going to be a Tiger. Good luck at Florida.........now please just go away.

Franks also added that he thinks Florida is the best place for him "to get developed at my position."

So obvious that a high-schooler recognizes that we suck at developing the position. Cant blame the kid at all.

kjanchild•101 months

so why is Cam headed that way?

lsuhunt555•101 months

He seems extremely loyal and very level headed when it comes to honoring commitments.

"Wouldn't want him to come back anyway."

I normally roll my eyes at statements like this, but for once I genuinely agree.

PanhandleTigah•101 months

Don't blame him; QBs at LSU for the most part over the last 11 years have not prospered at LSU.

kensnippy•101 months

If UF's offense resembles what Bama's looked like under McElwain then this guy made the right choice. He will be well prepared for the NFL. You can't say that about LSU. For whatever reason LSU CANNOT DEVELOP QBs. If I was a good QB I wouldn't want to come here either. I love LSU, but these are the facts.

trooploop•101 months

So Cam Cameron has Antwaan Randle El, Brees, Rivers, Flacco, and Mettenberger on his resume. McElwain has Greg McElroy, Garrett Grayson and Rob Compson on his, while Nussmeir has Marc Bulger, Jake Locker, AJ McCarron, Jeff Smoker, Drew Stanton, and Keith Price. Yep, Florida sounds better.

Shalimar Sid•101 months

Tiger Bait.

Spilled Milk•101 months

Franks, didn't you hear??? Les is a REALLY good guy...who cares if you never develop in his system!!!

cwil177•101 months

Sounds about right. The kid realized that he wouldn't develop as a QB under Les' tutelage and decided to jump ship.

TampaTiger22•101 months

Franks will be competing at UF. With Eason and Grier. He may never see the field

SpookeyTiger•101 months

Franks doesn't like competition and I'm actually glad he isn't coming to LSU. He got bent out of shape when LSU was talking to Patterson and he is not bent out of shape that UF is looking at other QBs. Go win the job on the field and shut up already.
