Adrian Martinez Injury

[HuskerNation1]

Thanks guys. Maybe it will work out so Bunch can help us win the West and AM will be ready for the BIG championship game and our bowl game and he can still redshirt. Trying to think positive after today

I think this is the key to this entire season, with or without AM.

 

Nobody said this would be easy, including Frost. Maybe it won't work, maybe we have to try it all over again.

 

But just like with Solich and Callahan and Pelini and Riley I will hope and pray and give them time before I start acting as if the sky is falling.

Heard from a friend, who has been reliable, that it will not be a good diagnosis.

If Adrian is out for a few games we are 1 injury away from having Masker (another true freshman) as the starter.

Yeah it isn't going to change over night. I know fans want results now, but it isn't a reality. Give him 3+ years to recruit the guys he wants for his system and then judge. Nobody was expecting us to win the National Title this year anyway, so don't overreact to our first game where we lost a heartbreaker.

Sounds like MCL from what I'm hearing

Sprain or tear, or have you not gotten that info?

Dont know the severity yet. Was just told they thought it was MCL and it didnt look like a full tear. Could be sprain or partial basically.

Offensive Line and RBs better be ready to carry the load.

If this is the case, he would be out anywhere from 2-6 weeks.

Which sucks. But they could hold him back until the last 3 games and he could still have 4 years left.

No one knows anything (including the med staff) until the MRI.  There can be educated guessing based of stability tests, but nothing will be known for certain for a day or two.

You can still be positive and know that Bunch isn't winning the West, it's ok.

 

This year was always about culture shift and learning how to do things for the future. Wins will be nice, but focus on the big picture even without them.

 

The sky isn't falling even if AM is out for the year.

And they have to wait for swelling to go down to do MRI, but Hedley is pretty plugged in down there..
