  1. Measured by...? No 40 times in college are accurate. I remember reading a couple of years ago that Helu was timed running a mid 4.2 in spring ball. We all know that's not true. I voted Martinez. Watching highlights of them both, Robinson is lightyears ahead of Martinez in "wiggle", but Martinez is a touch faster in long speed. So you discount the 40 speed yet you think highlights are more accurate? Are you kidding me? That makes no sense at all Everyone should take Taylor's 40 time with a grain of salt. That's what he clocked his junior year of high school. He's clearly improved.
  2. I don't like how the situation went down, but none of us know the fine details beyond the whole resignation so I'll give Bo the benefit of the doubt and say he couldn't do anything about it. I hate how Bo handles the press, specifically the way he lies to the public, but he doesn't seem like the type of guy who would purposefully mislead recruits.
  3. I don't buy that at all, because if that was true, then our other linebackers would have better numbers also.
  4. I know our spot in the top 20 is a gift, but it still pisses me off to see Missouri and Oklahoma State ahead of us.
  5. His family wants him to get an education. He'll be back.
  6. And I'm sorry, but the way the article was written doesn't make me think he's all that confident. It basically said he thought he couldn't surpass Taylor until he began to struggle.
  7. I don't understand why Starling is receiving praise for his competitiveness. Taylor is the same way, is he not? And from the looks of the article, the only reason Starling is considering football is because now he thinks he can surpass Taylor on the depth chart.
  8. Funny that our #2 and #3 QB's had the maturity to swallow the disappointment of not being QB1, yet were still willing to suck it up and talk to the media. Yet QB1 rarely talks to the media, and when he does he makes stupid comments that it's "my team and no one else’s team". I don't have a problem with Taylor saying that. A lot of leaders say that type of stuff; it just sounds weird coming from him because he's so quiet.
  9. It's hard to win games when your offense scores on your defense. How many times did the offense screw up and give the defense no margin of error? Hell, they outscored themselves in the bowl game, 9 to 7.
  10. I like how V-Tech plays. They don't run a lot of set plays with Taylor, but he still gets his touches when the pocket breaks down.
  11. Ironically Green's last throw was probably his best.
  12. Wow; I knew he was good, but we really missed him. I still think he would make a better offensive lineman, though.
  13. I'm a Taylor Martinez fan, and I think he deserves another shot at QB since he was pretty good before the injury, but if he can't get along with teammates and he's potentially a cancer then I don't want him on the field, period. I don't want Bo to force him to transfer, but if that's best for all parties then so be it. I hope people appreciate what he's done for Nebraska, though. I seriously doubt we'd see this type of negativity if those articles about Taylor's attitude problems are proven to be false.
  14. Everyone hated Zac last year until it came out he was injured. Everyone loved Taylor this year until he got injured.
  15. I don't think I'd have a problem with the way Bo handled the QB situation if Taylor Martinez wasn't such a drama queen. I have no idea which stories are true, but from the sounds of it he is not a popular guy in the locker room and I'm not convinced they'll play hard if he's the starter next year. There were even hints at the beginning of the year that the upperclassmen thought Zac or Cody deserved the job.
  16. Eh, I wouldn't be surprised if there is a "mutual" split. Watson doesn't sound happy to be here. If somebody has to get fired, then I want it to be Barney Cotton. Watson is inept and occasionally bad; Cotton is always bad.
  17. I don't care what type of offense we run at this point. As long as the guys play hard and don't self destruct, then I'll be happy. I want an identity!
  18. Our team lacks discipline, and they'd probably call a personal foul on Eric Martin if he so much as breathed on the kicker.
  19. I respect Taylor, and I think most Husker fans do too. Despite his flaws, he led the Huskers to 10 wins. What's more alarming is that I don't think his teammates respect him, and as good as he is, he can't be the starting quarterback if that's the case.
  20. Yeah, but he was also playing like complete sh#t against Washington, while I felt the team had momentum before he injured himself against A&M.
  21. Nah, I don't blame Pelini's practice schedule. The players were about as motivated and happy to be there as we were when we heard we were playing Washington again. It is what it is. Hopefully this negative situations turns into a positive and Bo announces that he is completely overhauling the offensive staff.
  22. Uh, I don't think Taylor was faking it if that's what you're implying. The replay showed his ankle (left?) get turned sideways. What's sad and annoying is that he probably would have been pulled but his a-hole father bitched about it so much after the first game that they just left him in.
