Just in: James Franklin could SLING the rock in his heyday.

Inject this one minute highlight tape of James Franklin lighting Southern Connecticut University on fire into my veins. This will cure anyone’s bye-week college football withdrawal.

Look at that poise. The scrambling ability. Reminds me of another No. 9 we see on a weekly basis. The only thing this video is missing is some Chris Berman ‘WHOOPs.’

Anyway, all I know is that this James Franklin wouldn’t give the ball to a running back on fourth and five.
