Josiah Francis brings size, versatility, and upside to FDU’s backcourt
In the 2025-26 season, Josiah Francis is a 6-foot-8 sophomore guard for FDU who gives the Knights a jumbo, switchable playmaker with perimeter size and inside-out versatility[2][5][14]. His current production is modest—about 1.3 points and 1.9 rebounds per game on 27.3% shooting—but his profile is more about fit, length, and long-term ceiling than box-score volume[5][8][13]. FDU’s staff has described him as an athletic wing who can contribute on the perimeter and in the paint, which makes him the kind of developmental piece that can quietly unlock lineup flexibility if his shot and consistency keep trending up[10].
