Chris Houston Retiring...

I heard rumblings as such, thus was left off my final roster projection. A lot of folks blasted me for not putting him on there when he was signed. When you are out of football for a year at his age, making a comeback is extremely difficult. 

 

Best of luck to him.

Meh, neither "retirement" is that weird.  I say "retirement" because as far as I know, Martin never actually turned in his paperwork to retire.  Houston was an aged vet in the twilight of his career trying to make a comeback.  My guess is that he simply saw that he could no longer hang or realized he no longer had the desire and hung up his cleats.  Nothing to be ashamed of there.  Jonathan Martin.. well, he's Jonathan Martin and that horse has been beat to death.  Nothing more needs to be said.

    • He should've been more than a JAG, but Jeremy Chinn.  I was convinced he was our next defensive star 
    • I see what you did there
    • Yeah the only way current set up is fun is if every year a different tiny school builds a super team and makes a run. You just need 1 rich guy to say you know what would be funny, if I drop 30 million and my school has a shot at a national championship.   They won't ever do it but put some sort of tiered salary cap in place and sign them to 4 year deals. You can only transfer up or down tiers no lateral moves because mean ole coach at texas doesn't play me enough so I'm going to Tennessee. So a player at prairie view can transfer to texas and get paid more or a player from UNC can transfer to UNCG because he isn't getting playing time. If a guy is transferring "up" he can get a salary bump if the team has salary cap space. A guy transferring down has to stay at the same salary as he signed his 4 year deal for so the lower tier team would have to have the cap space to sign him. It would stop the money chasing for lateral moves but allow guys who improve massively at lower schools to make more money as juniors and seniors and hopefully keep more guys in one place because the contract is for 4 years.
