....or maybe it was the fact that you had him out running around the country looking at OSU that made the A&M staff feel offers for Ryan Kelley and Jack Sears were needed to cover the possibility that Tate would flake...AGAIN. So was it YOUR needs Mr. Martell that have now labeled your son as a 2x quitter?
Words have meaning sir. Commitment, look it up Mr. Martel and whatever you do don't use the L word when describing your son,
If he were loyal sir, he (under your direction) would have shut down the process, gone to A&M and probably started as a freshman and had not only his buddy Tyjon Lindsey to throw to but most likely the #1 WR in the country for '17, Christian Kirk. But no, you enabled both of your rock star aspirations by flying him around the country looking at other schools... to make sure you guys were"doing what was best for him & your family" (most overused garbage line is recruiting) and to figure out if he was really, really, reeeeeally committed to A&M.
Word of advice Mr. Martell, watch a Johnny Football 30 for 30 and advise your son to zero in on a school like Cal or Oregon and actually use the 4-5 years to get a worthwhile diploma. The odds are he's going to need it for things like food & rent when he walks off that college field for the last time.
Lastly, take the keys to your helicopter and toss them in the trash. This isn't the Inland Empire Ducks anymore and you're not his coach nor his agent. You and his mother didn't give him the needed genetics to be anything more than a good college QB. Had Peyton Manning been only 5-10, I wouldn't have written this sentence because he would never have become Peyton Manning.
