I have misplaced my pants.
Was Drew Allar "highly-rated"?
I can't think of anyone else who might be "highly-rated".
How about Hackenberg? Does he count? He was recruited by and played for 1-2 years under O'Brien.
I was never impressed with either. I was shocked when Hack went pro after 3 years. Not shocked at all that he never played a meaningful down in the NFL. Maybe no plays at all. Then he went to some spring league, led his team to something like 0-4, got dinged up, his backup led the team to victory, and he got benched forever.
Allar might be something in the NFL. He wasn't anything in college.
Was that Franklin's fault? Maybe..

VT is about to get very serious and then they will be reminded of why his nickname is "Big Game" James folks.
It isn't a compliment

Sackenberg actually wasn't wasn't bad for a true freshman under O'Brien. When Franklin got there he regressed every year.
That said, here's my favorite Hack play of his time at PSU.

You kids stay off my lawn!
What does this have to do with Va Tech and Franklin? Well, not much. Just remembering the 50s, when the school still went by VPI. I'm watching a college football scores round-up, and the screen shows something like "Citadel 14 - VPI 21."
I ask the ol' man, "What does VPI stand for?"
And being a wiseass, he says."Vice Presidents Institute."
And I ask, "What do they study to be?"
"Vice Presidents."
"Oh."
