Feleipe Franks has run the gamut of emotions just a month into the season.
The redshirt freshman was named the Florida Gators starting quarterback after battling Kyle Trask in the spring and then Luke Del Rio and Malik Zaire in the fall. Despite being named the starter Franks was pulled in favor of Zaire in the season opener and then again last week on the road against Kentucky. Florida turned to Del Rio to pull off the comeback win in Lexington and then Jim McElwain officially named Del Rio the starter.
“Obviously he was disappointed, as any competitor would be,” McElwain said of Franks’ reaction to the decision to start Del Rio.
