That's fine but "processed" sounds like he was given the boot to make room for other kids.

We don't have enough other kids to even fill out a roster, so what's the point in processing a kid. If he wanted to go elsewhere for grad school and to play, fine.

He's processed because after 4 years, he will not be awarded an opportunity to take up a roster spot for a 5th. He's not even a depth piece or kid that they think is worth bringing back for a 5th year clearly.

With more transfers coming potentially, this is just a dumb move unless we are going to just grab any transfer with a pulse.

If there is any position we are good at it's DT.

J. Miller
Blissett
Harrison-Hunte
Holley

Martin moving on won't hurt us. He's not an FBS level player.

Yeah when schools need scholarships i agree. But when they don't, what's the harm?

What if Moise doesn't make it in, or gets put on OL? We'd be down to 6 DTs. What if Jon Ford goes pro and Moise doesn't make it in? 5. 1 injury? 4. See where i'm going? If things happen, you don't even have a body for practice.

If a kid graduates and wants to move on for a chance at snaps.....100% fine. But i'm not processing ANYONE on a roster this depleted unless the kid is a bad locker room guy.

Dykstra and Polendey next
[/QUOTE]

Some may remember that when Dykstra signed, there was either a picture or video of him doing a one-handed handstand on a kettlebell. Several posters commented on this and offered their static / dynamic / kinetics analyses to conclude that this would translate into him becoming a great O lineman at the U. Although the handstand part was impressive, it apparently didn't translate into him becoming a successful lineman.

If any of that happens then they'll bring in a GT, because they clearly didn't even think this kid was worth playing after 4 years at the school. Why keep him for a 5th?

He's FCS level at best.

For reference: Tusculum, a Pretty average D2 in Tennessee, is interested in him. A friend on the staff asked me if I knew anything about him with me being a Canes fan. My response - "There were times when we questioned if the kid was alive or existed. Never heard a thing about him"
 
Only a detriment on Twitter and perception of "rats abandoning the ship" - thankful for the extra spot on a new roster.

Martin never played. probably lack of talent but was not the cause of this teams downfall like Blakie and Diaz.
 
I was blown away that we were able to steal him out from under Nick Saban's nose. Great win for our staff.

Kinda funny when you see a name like this and the first thought is wondering if the post is about a kid that disrespected us on signing day and ended up doing nothing at some other school.

Nahhh, it's just a kid that's been on the team for years that you completely forgot even existed.

We back!
