Franklin on fire

With a little help from Seider.......

Awesome news.

Congrats kid!

Our ability to land stud RBs annually is why i truly hope Martin plays another position… hopefully on defense

4 ⭐ Quinton Martin

3 ⭐ Cameron Wallace

With Potts having 2 years to play and Martin commited, along with Barker for 2025, would the staff consider only taking 1 RB in 2024, Martin?

And then take 2 in 2025 when Singleton and Allen will likely both be gone. The 2 2023 RB's will only be Sophs in 2024 when Martin arrives and the 3 of them will be sitting behind Singleton and Allen.

And he ain't done!

The young man has great change of direction, doesn't go down on the first hit, and has fairly good speed. If his measurables are somewhat accurate, he should be approaching 200 lbs and be faster when he gets to Happy Valley.

And now for my turd-in-the-punchbowl moment. I always take commitments that are a year and a half out, cum grano salis. But I'd rather he be committed now than never....

I think they will take two in 2024.

These early commits generate a lot of social media buzz. Certainly helps recruiting more talent. We may lose a couple of these early commits but it is good pub for the program to get them.
