Video: Deondre Francois at Under-Armour Practice

Quarterback Deondre Francois has consistently impressed at practices for the Under-Armour All-American game in Orlando this week.

While the quarterbacks aren’t asked to do too much at these practices, and can’t be tackled, Francois has still managed to string together enough correct plays to qualify as impressive.

GatorCountry was there to film Francois’s skills, and while he doesn’t pull off anything Top10 worthy (see above explanation) you can still get a sense of his arm strength and accuracy.

Francois is a 6’1″, 195lb slinger from IMG Academy in Orlando, Fl. He is committed to FSU but is still receiving viable interest from the Florida Gators and new head coach Jim McElwain.

He told GatorCountry’s Andrew Spivey earlier in the week that McElwain assured Francois he was wanted in Gainesville, saying “he just let me know that he’s opening up his recruiting and that I’m on top of his board.”
