Steve Franklin brings proven size and experience to Syracuse’s interior line
Franklin projects as a **battle-tested interior offensive lineman** with the kind of frame and experience coaches value: Syracuse lists him at 6-5, 319, and describes him as a **three-year starter at guard**[1]. He was also rated a **PrepStar Top-125 junior college prospect** during his Coffeyville CC path, which suggests he arrived with real recruiting buzz and not just raw mass[3]. If you need a guard who can help stabilize the run game and handle the physical grind inside, he’s a credible fit—but the key question is how quickly that experience translates into consistent high-level ACC play[1][3].
