I guess this means he won't be the starting QB.

I hope the kid succeeds and applaud his graduation.

I can see his logic transferring: be the big fish in the little pond and get noticed rather than languish on the sidelines and hope to catch an eye during pro scout workouts.

I disagree with him, but I can see why he would take one more shot at finding the right spot for himself.

We didn't want him anyways, we roll 5 deep at QB

After watching him at QB and watching him try to be a WR, lets just say, "he'll be going Pro in something other than sports."

Clifford Franklin IVXX has some talent.  His biggest asset is he's shitcherpants fast.  The right situation, the right team, the right conference, he might blow it up and get some serious looks from either NFL or Canadian scouts.  Dude has his degree so taking one last shot to be the big fish you mentioned is a no-brainer. 

That wasn't happening at AU.  Never was.  Should never have been recruited as a QB in the first place.  This staff (One former staffer) had no business thinking this kid could be a QB in this league.  I think FSU took a flyer hoping they'd catch lightning in a bottle with him as an athlete but they never seriously thought he'd take a snap under center.

Good luck to him.  Glad he has his degree.

I don't think he's a football player. I think he's a very fast athlete trying to play football. He's very raw but also very lost out there. It's like watching someone play back yard ball.

I'll be glad when Clifford Franklin XXVI runs out of eligibility and/or runs out of schools to transfer to.  I have never seen more hype and talk about a more overrated player in my life.  For some reason, FSU signed the kid.  Why, I have no clue. He's never going to play there so he moves on to JUCO. He can't start in JUCO and he's behind a guy that didn't even get a D1 offer.  Rhett Lashlee sees him play one half of football and thinks we need to sign him.  Why?  He can't start in JUCO.  His stats suck.  He's 152 pounds.  But, we sign him.  He gets to AU and he can't play QB.  He can't play WR.  He can't win the punt or kick return jobs.  So, he leaves for his 27th school.  al dot  I am a gay twerker that has no balls!!!!  I also have no idea how to use the quote function to post stories, so I annoy the piss out of others.  I like male genatalia in and around my mouth. puts up pieces non-stop about him transferring and what it means to Auburn.  What it meant to Auburn was that it opened up a scholly for Will Hastings.  Now, they have one up about him arriving at FAU and practicing. 

Krist on a cracka.  He's not good at the footballz.  Enough already!!!
