  1. Jaquavion Fraziars in the Under Armor All-stars game looks physically dominant.
  2. What dump off pass doesn't begin with reads? I think you aren't seeing what is really visible in a play and have missed it because may you don't know it at a very detailed level. You called one pass a handoff. Very odd. You're still calling his last TD a trick play which is preposterous.
  3. Your facts sound like opinions, especially how you remember Cody Green. And you want to say Martinez has more experience so it excuses his performances, which is also just another opinion. I have an opinion that performance matters. I also have an opinion that great people are excellent groomers of great people. So Like growing up in a family of athletes that know the game at a professional and all-American level does likely rub off. And his ability to repeat the track record of his older brothers lends credence to that theory.
  4. That same Luke McCaffrey offered by Ohio State, Michigan, Washington, Virginia, Mississippi, Colorado, Duke, Colorado State, and Western Kentucky. That same Luke McCaffrey that is son of Ed McCaffrey, head coach of his high school team, Stanford All-American, and 13 years in the NFL. And who did Luke not start over? His brother, Dylan, who has multiple Colorado Class 5A state championship wins under his belt and now is on the Michigan roster as a QB. Then Luke took over and won the Class 5A state championship, too. Ed didn't too bad, because his oldest son, Max, had a pretty good professional career as a wide receiver. His next oldest was a Heisman candidate as a RB at Stanford and then went to Carolina for the pros. And now both Dylan and Luke are in major college programs. Adrian doesn't get his name called out loud by fans every time he enters the game. That "LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUKE" that erupts from the fan base is because he is exciting. I can't wait to see if they both lead their teams when Michigan comes to Lincoln in 2021. So I'm not sure how you judge QBs because so far you're bagging on guys that got stuck behind Martinez for no good reason.
  5. Again with this Cody Green being an example of a bad quarterback? This is contrary to his actual performance. This is the Cody Green that got thrown in 1st down on our own goal line a few times, right? That Cody Green handled the pressure because the Martinez of that day could not.
  6. QBs need to see some things at 100% speed to build good habits. I didn't take it that you're asking for no holds barred contact on QBs. Mike Grant was a wonder kid, until he wasn't. Fans saw enough of Frazier that they were crying for him. Osborne acknowledged the fan sentiment. It was pretty self evident to fans, but Osborne wanted to ease him into taking snaps. Circumstances forced the issue and Tommie became the man. McCaffrey got the hook when his play suggested he was capable of great things. I guess people forget Martinez came into Nebraska with minimal experience. Frost sees him as the best athlete for the role. The kid can pound the Maryland's of the conference. But we really need someone that is going to stay mentally in the big games.
  7. When I was a player there was a rule about the core credit hours towards a major. You had to have 40% done by the second year and it increased 20% each year IIRC.
  8. The sample size was small for Tommie Frazier in 1992. But fans got it correct using the Mark I Eyeball test. There is a good vibes coming from the McCaffrey experience in 2019. Fans are high on him for a reason. That's no trick.
  9. You have the wrong guy, because I did not link to it. What Nebfanatic alludes to is that SSO didn't have direct access to the material. He did know people that could verify it. I know at least two guys on there that were able to speak specifically about it so I knew they had it. Nobody is going to - at least I hope they do not due to its sensitive nature - put it out to the public. If you want to really find inside information I suggest you use the PM's over there because the threads get polluted by a few jokers. I hope Max really likes those few people that dominate the board because they are pretty closed to anything beyond pumping sunshine and drinking koolaid. That is fine when we are winning, but right now this team is a WIP moving at a slow pace. Slow and steady does win the race, but it is painful to see missed opportunities to accelerate the process.
  10. Next year when a guy turns the ball over I hope we have more emphasis on correcting the problems. Regardless of if the margin is -2 or -3 turnovers our chances of winning drops to around 21%. Bad enough -1 turnover margin knocks about 5% off your chances already! We cannot have a turnover prone QB running the show anymore. It was ridiculous to hear the excuses this past year let alone in 2018. Find the best through your rotation rather than sticking to a favorite.
  11. And when did I point at them? I never said anything about PFF grades.
  12. What are you pointing at? I did not post grades here.
  13. I'm following our team from a football perspective. All my love for the Huskers won't fix bad football. You build a program around people. And sometimes people let you down so you adjust. But you don't do that by wearing emotions on the sleeve. In the end the score is what sets the mood. Someday Nebraska will get good again and fixing the Jimmys and Joes helps. We've got close to a total conversion now, so it's time to expect good Xs & Os. I'm pretty sure football forums are filled with opinions. You don't have to agree with mine, but instead of getting on the messenger you could pick apart the message.
  14. Yet the staff consistently gave him high scoring marks on his performances.
  15. If they do not accept core credits I know at least one rule that can get someone. In D1 you have to remain at so many credits per semester, The NU system as a whole is pretty hard on credit transfers. But those are admissions office questions.
