Daniel Francis

[JoeBobHog]

I was trying to track a player we recruited in 2002, and signed with you--Daniel Francis.

I saw where he had 29 receptions for 276 yards as a true freshman, but couldn't find anything after that--

would appreciate your help.

Transferred to Houston, I think.

you know I was checking up on him a couple of days ago. He doesn't appear on UH's roster but when Tech transfer and former Port Arthur recruit Ricky Wilson chose Houston over SMU two years ago the thought was he would transfer to UH because of several close friends/teammates who committed to UH. Is he at Arkansas now? He has a lot of potential although he showed questionable hands as a freshman. If you go into the Rivals database for about 3 years ago they should have more. I think he made some but not all Top 100 lists.

he's not here.

we're trying to set up a recruiting database of all recruits from 2002 to present on our little message board.

I saw that Francis had a really good freshman season, but then couldn't find anything else on him.

I don't THINK Rivals has that detailed info on kids, especially if they left for some reason.

Appreciate any help y'all can give.

good luck this season.

I thought Francis showed very good hands as a freshman. As I recall, he had a number of should-be catches knocked away, making me think he'd be a lot better with improved strength. I was sorry to see him go.
