Chris Martin

[OptionsJacket]

I suspect as a RS senior without NFL prospects, with COVID being a big issue,

Horrible decision to sit out this year if you have NFL prospects.

And he is the perfect size for the DL right now. 6'2". 310 lbs or so.

Only slightly bigger than your mother

Good luck, Chris.

Let’s just be honest, he was one of our best lineman and we are going to miss him.
This “next man up“ crap is simply BS.

He pulled a Cooper Taylor and quit on his team. Who does that if they think they're one of the best linemen?

Doesn't seem like that. I wonder if the "M-Train" is gone because they changed it to Business Administration? Maybe there's a different name for it now.

I've been looking over GT resumes a big part of the day preparing for the career fair on the 21st. Low GPA at GT now is anything under about a 3.6 or 3.7. There is no 'M-train' or 'B-train' because nobody at GT is struggling to survive. Six year graduation rate is over 85% now.

I’m torn. Do I downvote because I don’t like the news, or do I upvote because it is a good, informative post?

You’re not joking. 51% of undergraduate engineering grades were As last year. Average GPA was 3.37. So the average student gets high honors.

So which linemen were better than him?

Cool site, look how it ticks up every year. "and yuu get an A, and you get an A, and you get an A...."

Any chance we can get Chris back since TK has been lost for the season? Wouldn’t seem too unlikely a hope.

No.

He has already graduated. He has job offers. He was also best friends with BA and that has influenced his decision a lot.

Who is BA?

Disagree. We have so many young guys that need to see the field. Every opportunity to play them last year and this year is a bonus. We have written off 2019 and 2020 to build for next year. I hate that we lost Chris Martin but he was not going to be a game changer and more talented underclassmen will benefit .

What if everyone's just, like, getting smarter, man?

maybe-but it may be the "hahvarrd" plan--if you get accepted/in -you get a B,if you go to class an A.

So I feel like this probably how the generations before me felt about the younger guys not having to take drownproofing. This is bullshit.
