Martinez Sets Husker Freshman Passing Record

[4skers89]

I’m glad we have Martinez as “the guy” but putting too much hope in a QB could be detrimental if he is unavailable. For now, if the team elevates their play to support Martinez then great, rally around him.

This would also be the sophomore record, and he is on pace to destroy the freshman record for passing and total yards in a season and it will be a tight race to see if he passes the sophomore record for both of those as well. That is including playing in 2 less games than the other players assuming we don't make a bowl. 

All of the freshman records he is/might be passing are Taylor Martinez and all of the sophomore ones are Armstrong. 

Edit: looks like he also broke the freshman single game total offense record vs Wiscy

I thought the narrative was that the statue QBs were better passers than dual-threat guys.

If I had to run a pro-set passing offense, I'd still take Adrian Martinez over Tanner Lee.

It’s amazing how much Martinez does for the offense. There are some plays where it’s just him making the play that is the difference. I hope we don’t hear too much from the naysayers out there.

That could be about the most important flight in the history of Nebraska Football

Ranks up there.  Frazier, his HS coach and Osborne flew to Lincoln on a private jet the weekend before signing day.  I would say that one is pretty important.
