Jayson Franklin brings feature-back size, production, and two-way toughness to USF
Franklin enters USF as a **6-foot, 205-pound** freshman running back with proven high-school production and a rugged, all-around profile. He rushed for **more than 4,400 yards and 49 touchdowns** at Seventy-First HS, added return skills and defensive snaps, and earned **three-time all-conference** honors plus a Shrine Bowl nod. That versatility, contact balance, and workload resilience make him a strong fit for a program looking for a physical back who can help in multiple phases, not just carry the ball.[1][3][7]
