Bradr Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Martinez sets school record for rushing by a QB and beats out some pretty outstanding young men. As a rs frosh. Very impressive. Quote Link to comment
HuskerfaninOkieland Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 He broke another record (total offense I believe) and tied total # of TD's Quote Link to comment
JTrain Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 You mentioned the same guys as the SportsCenter guys did (plus Frost). But what about Lord? He was the one whose record Martinez broke. 1. T-Mart 241 2. Lord 234 3. Lord 218 4. Frazier 199 5. Crouch 191 6. Gdowski 176 7. Crouch 162 8. Lord 159 9T. Frazier 158 9T. Crouch 158 1 Quote Link to comment

If he had the surrounding cast any of our other QB's of the TO era had, he would have been remembered as one of the greats. I have a brother in law that is an ISU fan and still gives me a hard time about Lord. All I can do is facepalm it..... Quote Link to comment
Husker_x Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 And he's got another four seasons in front of him. Edit More like 3 and 1/2, but, well, y'know. Quote Link to comment

He's so difficult to read. Is he the kind of guy that stays through a senior year, or ducks out for the NFL? Quote Link to comment

He's so difficult to read. Is he the kind of guy that stays through a senior year, or ducks out for the NFL? He'll have to show a lot more throwing, especially in his motion to be someone the NFL even looks at as a QB... especially early. Could happen, but it's way way too early to make any sort of judgment on that. A lot of things can happen between now and then. Rather then worry about that, I just hope he can remain consistent throughout the rest of this season and the offense keeps getting better. Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 With great running QBs like Gill, Frazier, Frost, Crouch, Lord and Taylor, I can't hardly believe that the record is only 241 yards. We played against some really weak K-State opponents in the past two decades. Maybe part of the reason is that we were blowing those guys out back in the day so badly that Frazier, Gill, et al were riding the pine by halftime and getting only one token series in the second half.

knapplc Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 If Martinez makes it in the NFL it'll be as a WR or RB. He's no NFL QB. Quote Link to comment
irafreak Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 It's kind of neat because Taylor Martinez is one of those freaks that just makes your jaw drop and he's playing for us. Kind of like when Adrian came into OU you saw him and just said wow he's going to be a stud. Quote Link to comment
Bradr Posted October 8, 2010 Author Share Posted October 8, 2010 I'm no old guard by any means, but I don't ever remember seeing us rip off those kind of long runs as a % of our overall production. Not saying that our O isn't good, but to me, it seems like our O is dependent on long plays for its production. And with that in mind, if a team limits our big plays, it limits our scores. Kind of like Bo's D, in designing an offense that he doesn't want to play against, he has designed the perfect blue print of a defense to counter our O. I'm a few deep, but does this make sense to anyone else? Quote Link to comment
Moiraine Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Is he the kind of guy that stays through a senior year, or ducks out for the NFL? He's a Nebraska running QB. No way in hell would he leave early. There would be nothing in it for him. Quote Link to comment
Bradr Posted October 8, 2010 Author Share Posted October 8, 2010 Is he the kind of guy that stays through a senior year, or ducks out for the NFL? There would be nothing in it for him. Didn't Frost & Crouch get offers/opportunities as Safety & Receiver respectively? Quote Link to comment
