Does he come back for his 5th year now that he is getting paid for endorsements? I don’t see him being drafted, but if he is the best QB on our roster I’m guessing Frost would want him back.
AM 2022?
- Thread starter BuckysBoys1
- Start date
What if he still stinks? Does he forfeit the money or does Degree remove the deodorant patch from his uniform?
It's possible but it's not going to be known without an educated guess until we know how the season goes.
ofc he is coming back..
put yourself in his shoes.. you can either come back and be 'the man' for one more year (and finish getting your graduate degree) or you can go get a real job.

Yep he's trying to make history. First college QB to start for a losing team 5 years in a row.
I never
I never thought of this but you're right - there are plenty of guys that are on the fringe of being NFL talent that will stay around for a guaranteed paycheck.
I think the money is only in a few folks hands though - If i'm not a skill position player I'm not banking.

I'm not here to pile on with criticism of Adrian Martinez, but I think the topic is actually an interesting one. With the NIL in place, it may be possible, even likely, that some guys are worth more money getting sponsorship money as a college player than they will post-college at an entry-level job (assuming no football, of course).
These are interesting times for sure.

I thought exactly the same thing. Unless AM becomes a legit NFL prospect, he could make good money playing a 5th season in college.
What if AMART shows much improvement, and we get 7-8 wins? We'll be clamoring for him to stay. Haarbarg can get another year of polish. At least that's my great hope
I won't be. I will be happy for him if he has a good year, but I'm ready to move on. Maybe a team takes a chance on him at the next level, in fact I'm sure a few will want to try him out, but I don't think he gets drafted.
I'm all for AM having a good year, but the best the story could be for me is ending on a high point on an otherwise horrible career. Just like how last season ended (on a high point, a win but not playing a bowl game) I want AM gone like a bad fart in a dentist's chair. (recent experience).
But completion percentage. Uh... 2nd half of Rutgers. Heisman. NC. First rounder!
Can’t express in words how disappointed I am in Frost with how he has recruited and developed QB’s in his tenure.
If A-Mart gets 7-8 wins assuming that includes his turnover/touchdown ratio improves, he will at the least have some tryouts possibly a combine invite. He still has a mid 60% completion rate even with a losing record. That alone shows he is not the biggest problem on the team.
we will see big improvement. he has been throwing to kids who should have been FCS. Martin, Toure, Betts, and the TEs will be enough. be nice if Manning can step up as well.
It's amazing how a tweak here, and a tweak there can actually have a significant outcome on a game let alone a season. I'm trying not to get overly excited, but I believe this team has the potential to have a real positive year. To me, that would mean finishing the season in the top 25 and the players believing in one another and having a great culture.
I’d say the biggest problem on the team has been Offensive Line play since Frost took over. But that is to be expected when you have a JV line coach learning on the job. For the money Austin gets, the product on the field has been downright appalling. How many false starts, missed blocks, and other boneheaded penalties have turned games? If there is not improvement starting this year and continuing beyond with the O-line, then I believe this will end Frost’s career here.
Maybe he should stay out of the Haymarket bars and take the **** seriously. When he does, we can talk.
