Ultimately - Grant has to do what he thinks is best for the program. The season has started and it's time for him to make some tough decisions. Obviously he believes a RS for Frankie is in the best interest of the program. That's the beginning, middle, and end of that part of the story. It's not FP's decision if he plays this year.
If this was indeed a surprise for FP, then he probably feels stuck. Even if he wanted to leave, he can't play D1 until next year, which is the same boat he's in here.
I trust AG talked to FP and told him why he did it and talked about the long term benefits for FP. Hopefully it makes sense to FP and he can talk to Obi & Josh about the benefit that can be had from the extra year.
