It is just because so many people over last month kept saying that he was going to play next season. There are so many point guards out there still looking for a school that would probably be better than a walk on playing minutes. Jucos, transfers, guys that committed to mid majors then their coach left etc.
I would hope that nobody is trying to 'kick around' Franklin, they are just tired of the doom and gloom (deservedly) this board has been overran by, including people saying that we are going to need our walk ons to play meaningful on the court roles.
That being said, nothing good comes from this thread.
