It's an upgrade over what they've had but I'm not sure QB is their problem or will be anytime soon. They literally are void of talent. So you get Franks for a year, he's got basically no OL and very little skill players and a bad defense. He gets you what exactly on a one season deal?
I get why coaches wanted him there, they can't just roll over for a season and act like they know they'll win 4-5 games. But wouldn't they be better to build with a young QB with multiple years of eligibility so that he can be there and be experienced when they have the other players around him to compete a bit more? If this was LSU I'd think it was a big deal. I'm not sure Joe Burrow going to Arkansas would make them competitive at this point.
I agree with all that. I’m just saying for them it’s a good move...or at least not a bad one. FF isn’t going to make them worse. He could only help them IMO.
