Former Florida Gators quarterback Feleipe Franks is in Lawrence, Kan., home of the Kansas Jayhawks.

Franks made that known on his Instagram account on Saturday, posting a video with a location tag. The Florida transfer is in town for a visit with Kansas Football and head coach Les Miles. The quarterback recently followed Miles and Jayhawks offensive coordinator Brent Dearmon on Twitter.

Franks committed to LSU and Miles' staff in the summer of 2014 before his junior season in high school. However, the former 247Sports Composite four-star recruit later decided to switch his commitment to the Gators and former Florida head coach Jim McElwain.

Following four seasons in Gainesville, Franks announced his decision to leave Florida on Dec. 1.

"It has been my dream to play at the University of Florida," Franks wrote in a post on social media. "To play for a top program and contribute to winning games. I have been so fortunate to meet as many amazing people as I have while being here. Coaches, players, and fans as well. My heart will always be a part of the Gator family.

"Coach Mullen and coach (Brian) Johnson have meant so much to me, and I want to thank both of them for putting their trust in me. I also want to thank Mr. Jeremy Foley and Mr. Scott Stricklin as well, as everybody inside the football facility has always had my back no matter what."

Franks had undergone a remarkable career turnaround following a rough redshirt freshman season in 2017 that saw him become the focus of some fairly negative social media backlash due to poor performance. However, the arrival of coach Dan Mullen seemed to spark a change in both demeanor and confidence for Franks, allowing him to put together a quite solid 2018 season as a redshirt sophomore.

Franks began the 2019 season as the unquestioned starter for the Gators and continued that overall upward trajectory before a season-ending ankle injury in the third game of the year against Kentucky sidelined him. In two years under Mullen, Franks went 242-for-393 passing (61.5%) for 3,155 yards with 29 touchdowns and nine interceptions, along with 131 carries for 428 yards and eight touchdowns on the ground.

Following the season-ending injury to Franks, backup quarterback Kyle Trask took over and led a successful come-from-behind win over Kentucky. His success didn't end there, with Trask leading Florida to a 10-2 finish to the 2019 season, with the only losses to No. 1 LSU and No. 4 Georgia.

Kansas must replace senior starting quarterback Carter Stanley next season. The Jayhawks posted a 3-9 record under Miles in his return to the sidelines for the first time since he parted ways with LSU in 2016.

“Certainly we need a quarterback,” Miles said after Kansas finished the season. “We like [Thomas] MacVittie. We like the other Miles [Kendrick] lad. And but if we can find a great quarterback in this class, we'll take one.”
