He seems to be bringing in promising kids, but mostly young with 3-4 years to play. Not a lot of starting experience, but should compete for the two-deep.

Hopefully, he can build a culture and a budget that will enable us to hang on to these players after we develop them.

I don't know if I should be more impressed by Franklin's job immediately improving our recruiting to top 25 in a matter of weeks or by the level of talent he's bringing through the portal. These transfers are (for the most part) coming from P4 (and relatively big name schools as well). It's likely a combination of his recruiting skill and a bigger wallet willing to pay for the level of talent we're getting. Either way, whoa....

I just looked at his HS highlights. Nasty! This kid looked well coached, setting a good edge but slanting inside when it appeared called for. Really good hands, getting them into the defender's chest. And fast. Then I saw he ran 11.39 100 meters. Yeah, he is fast. It appears he has a good motor but would like to watch some game tape from Mizzou to verify. Going to be a stud for us.

On what planet is Gosnell one of the best TE's in the country? He's a pretty good receiving TE but he's a below average bordering on plain bad blocker.
B to B+ receiver
C- to D blocker

He is not a D-1 caliber player. Pry took a flyer on him because he was local and he didn't show any P4 potential in practice.
