Translation: You have complete faith in Coach Trosper until Jeff Martin is beaten out at the QB position.

 

Not at all what I meant, if their is a better man for the job then by all means the job should be theirs

You're right, you can't compare Martin with Barker. Barker had all the great players surrounding him. It's easy to look good when you have a line that blocks and receivers that can catch just about everything you throw to them. Most of the time he had plenty of time to get the ball off as for Martin, he had the total opposite always running for his life cause no-one blocked and his receivers would catch the ball 1of 3 times when thrown to them. Everyone knows the JV team is the last thought, they get all the hitting dummies in practice. The varsity players think it's a slap in the face if they have to play down. So yes you're right you can't compare them. The coach would never play Barker down and you really don't know how good Martin is cause he never got to play with those surroundings.

 

"Come on man!"

Not discounting Barker in anyway the kid went D-1 for a reason, but it's unfair to compare a QB from JV only play to a QB that was strictly Varsity from day 1.

Barker was a jv qb before he was a varsity qb.

Just anxious to see what Martin has to offer

Has he been to any football camps?

Just 1 in the seventh grade, none sence then.

Martin is a natural athlete, multi talented, he is one of those players that are lucky.He don't have to try hard but does well at any sport he plays. I think he will have a great year this year as long as his team comes together.

I hate to break the news but he will probably struggle his first year starting.

He shouldn't struggle much majority of the players he's playing with were JV players recently on his team, if anything he should be better prepared, he's had a chance to get to know his teammates and their strengths.
