Any chance John Franklin III Follows Lashlee?

[crazyUCfan23]

I believe he is graduating this year at Auburn, and has one more year of eligibility. He's not guaranteed (and most likey will not) to start next season. He obviously knows RL's systems, and would give hime a chance to start and showcase his talent against inferior AAC athletes. Not saying it's gonna happen, but i can dream right?

I hope so. He won't be starting at Auburn, Lashlee recruited him, and he would tear up the AAC on the ground. I don't think he's a worse passer than Williams (at this stage in his career) and he's probably a few tenths quicker to boot.

If grad school was on his radar....... make it happen SUZIE !!!!!!!!!!!!

From watching Last Chance U the dude knows what he needs to do to stay on the football field. He was probably the biggest realist from the whole show. Obviously reality tv skews perception but he seemed like he had his ish together

so what are you trying to say...?

if he wants to keep playing football he'll be able to pass classes at the graduate level even if he doesn't care about getting a graduate degree.

 

[WhereistheDove?]

I think he may be able to outrun some of the AAC guys...

He's a 4* according to ""uconndogs" that's not happening.

he'd be the fastest guy on the field 95% of the time in the AAC

I know I commented negatively about him being on Last Chance U but after reflecting on the sleepless night where I trudged through the whole season he was just about the only level headed dude on that team. His grades were always good (grad school at UConn ain't EMCC but he'd be fine) and his attitude about everything seemed to be "this is really weird I just wanna play football." It was a bit of a shock for him I'm sure that he didn't take over the starting role from the incumbent local redneck kid but he never got TOO down and absolutely shredded when he got out there. Clearly wanted nothing to do with the season ending fight because ding ding our new OC was in the stands! I'd welcome this kid big time.

Also, I think he may have banged the milfy advisor. Way to go JF3!

But isn't the regular football season over with before the first semester closes? In short, his grades would be irrelevant.

Of course Chief pops up with a comment about how student-athletes are too academically motivated these days.

Chief is the kind of person that appreciated the APR sanctions

They did make Ollie and Glen Miller's lives a lot more difficult...

John is a 4th year Jr having red shirted his 1st semester at FSU before enrolling at a JC. If he's not on track to graduate in June, he'll have to sit out and then be out of eligibility if he leaves Auburn.

It is being reported that he is on track to graduate at the end of this semester.

>>Franklin is scheduled to graduate with his Bachelor's degree during the summer, after which he could be a graduate transfer, if he did choose to leave after spring practice, when a position battle featuring two-year returning starter Sean White and former Baylor starter Jarrett Stidham begins.<<

I'd wager more than a few tenths. D.Williams might have straight line speed, but he doesn't seem elusive whatsoever when running with the ball.

Dude, dropping the line "may have banged the milfy advisor" without a pic of said advisor is poor form.

I believe, a few years ago, Alabama football a had a higher APR than Harvard basketball. Stairmaster, such are the academic standards you wish to achieve. Keep trying to achieve that academic utopia but one day you will wake up out of your 1950's sleep slumber and realize it's all smoke and mirrors; your foe Jim Calhoun was right.

Do you remember that time the team got banned from the tournament in '12-13 because the APR wasn't up to snuff? You were probably cheering about it, because you don't want Ollie's legacy to come near Calhoun's.
You actually seem to be the one who thinks Calhoun is wrong in his choice of who to entrust with the program, given how much crap you give KO and his staff...and the AD...and Herbst...I guess this is how you treated Northeastern in 1986.

Part of that group of players, who were accepted to school under Calhoun, two years later were good enough to win a National Championship under Ollie. I am thinking Shabazz, Bostshow, Daniels, Griffey etc. It's the AD's responsibility not the coach's to establish an academic support system for athletes. Your buddy Hathaway did not do his job.
