Never the biggest arm or the most mobile, but sneaky athletic and large framed. And a HELL of a leader. We would have followed him to battle anywhere. I wasn't on the Rose Bowl team but still knew all those guys too and they said the same thing.
Not bad for a guy who had no P5 offers out of High School and people wanted benched during his Sophomore year. I hope he keeps playing and getting those NFL checks, but as soon as he retires we're ready to welcome him back to Fort Worth and the TCU community with open arms.
I was an Andy fan during his tenure, but I do have to touch on the MVP talk for 2015. Many of us, myself included, have really blown up his chances of winning that MVP. By the time he was injured, he was essentially out of the race. Vegas had him at +4000, behind Carson Palmer. So, technically, he was in the conversation, but had no real chance. I have poked through some historical data that is around the internet, and I never saw him with better odds than +3500.
