James Franklin paid a visit to a classroom this week and found out one of his football players was not in attendance.

On Tuesday, Franklin surprised some Penn State students by showing up to their classroom. While there, he called out the names of his football players who are enrolled in the class. Those who were present stood up so Franklin could see them. When Micah Parsons’ name was called there was no reply because he was not there.
