Not just the news of jetski’s returning, but how it reflects well on both Franklin and Mora.

“I feel like it’s best if I stay,” Franklin said. “Coach Mora didn’t promise me anything, he didn’t tell me I’ll be a starter or anything. He’s a hard-nosed coach, he wants to win championships and turn the program around. He’ll do whatever he can to do that and that’s a coach I want to play for.”

I think he should be made a team captain.

but was anyone really thinking that he was going to go? I dont even think he would have been guaranteed to be drafted if he came out, but with a senior year where he shows that he can hold onto the ball (and not much else he has to prove) he has a shot to really boost his draft stock.

It appears we will have some dept at the RB position. I would definitely like to see the RBs with the strongest work ethic and skill play. Franklin needs to secure the ball much better.

He doesn’t have a serious shot at getting drafted right now. With a good senior year, who knows….

“That’s a coach I want to play for” also says a lot. Let’s hope these things translate on the field.

and the fact he wouldn’t be drafted very high this year, I’m glad he’s returning.

He seems to be one of the true bruins on our team that truly has this head screwed on right. Every interview I’ve heard with him and the way many on the team speak of his leadership, leads me to believe that we’re going to need his presence next year if we hope to start righting the sinking submerged titanic.

I like what this says about Mora more so than Franklin. In the past I always felt the coaching staff favored experience over talent to its detriment. It remains to be seen, but doesn’t feel like Mora may flip that upside down?

Thank you, Jonathan Franklin. With Sua-Filo back and a solid line, also following up #3 rushing team in the conference, we’re going to be great.
