Curtis Francis brings freshman size and raw power to MVSU’s offensive line
Curtis (CJ) Francis is a freshman OL at Mississippi Valley State in the 2026 season, listed around 6-foot-5 and 356 pounds, and that frame alone tells you why he matters: he’s a massive interior/edge-protecting body with developmental upside.[1][2][5] There are no published 2026 stats or game logs yet, so the pitch here is projection—he looks like a classic weight-room bully who can help create a sturdier pocket and run lane if his technique catches up to his size.[2][6] If your team wants an anchor candidate with upside, he’s intriguing; if you need a polished, ready-made blocker, he’s still a work in progress.[2][7]
