Drake Martinez has left the program - Will Attend Michigan State

[NUpolo8]

Probably a good move on both parts. The Martinez era had to end IMO.

I disagree. I appreciate all the hard work and dedication that Taylor gave to this program and looked forward to Drake's contributions. I was happy to see him join the program and welcomed him. It is unfortunate that it didn't work out. I don't know the details, but I wish him the best in the future.

I think you would have to really look to find someone who didn't appreciate what Taylor tried to give to the program. But at this point I bet the Martinez family and the program want away from each other.

I probably should have said the "Casey Martinez era" had to end IMO. No issue with the kids. I think the kids biggest problem may be Casey.

Oh yeah, but the two cannot come without him. Which is sad.

He was finding himself via yolostrong bracelets and gluten fee light beer in a Canadian province.

Sometimes you have to write the TWOS material...and sometimes the material writes itself...as is the case here.

It's not a stretch to go from safety to OLB, especially if he grew taller and too heavy to be a safety. It's not like he is going from safety to DT.
