HuskerInLostWages Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Nothing to discuss, previous coaches didnt want him, current coach wanted Martinez, end of story. 4 Quote Link to comment

So what year does A-Mart win his heisman? This is a failure by all three last coaches. I do not say that lightly as I am a Bo fan. This is a guy we could of gotten. 2 Quote Link to comment
whateveritis1224 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 This is a hindsight question, but I would lay this more on Pelini/Beck (Riley was hired after Burrow had committed to OSU, and he was pretty solid after the fact). For those who don't read the OWH, this story is probably why this thread exists: https://www.omaha.com/sports/college/huskers/plus/mckewon-between-adrian-martinez-and-joe-burrow-did-the-huskers/article_1868991b-47fa-5c24-8334-b5db2c0bf0ef.html 2 Quote Link to comment

Pretty much mocking us as the media loves to do. Quote Link to comment
SFW Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Glad for him he went where he did. He would be a back up at NU. 4 1 3 1 Quote Link to comment

skersfan Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 As if that is the magic prize to correct our problems. He might have been descent here, he might have failed miserably, no one knows. But at Ohio State and LSU his supporting cast is so superior to what we put on the field it is a joke. Good for the kid and props to Coach O for getting him. Plus he just beat Alabama, nothing good make my day better. 6 Quote Link to comment
I am I Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Meh. You go for what you want and you get who wants you back. Nobody wanted Woodhead. Fant found a home. We gave A Abdullah a home when he was wandering. And on and on. Whatever. Burrow was on the market and he went where someone wanted him. Is he in heisman contention here, this year? lol. Not even our dark horse heisman contender isn’t contending Lets move on from woulda/coulda 2 1 Quote Link to comment

It is like as a raiders fan look at incognito besides being bat s#!t crazy he is a great O line man. He runs with a purpose and he is a dual threat quarterback. If we had a better O line and better defense like the two aforementioned we might be in a different situation. Quote Link to comment
skersfan Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 But the point is we don't. So it is another useless post to stir up more hate and discontent. 1 Quote Link to comment

PasstheDamnBallGuy Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Give us LSU's WR corps and we put up 40 a game, changing nothing else. 3 Quote Link to comment

So? we didn’t want him, he went where someone did want him. Done and done. If we recruit him as a freshman and he’s here the whole time is he who he is now? Are we where we are now if he was here the whole time? Who knows and who cares? He’s where he is and doing great. Can’t count us being where we want to be because those before the coaches who are here now didn’t want him. He went where he was wanted and he’s doing great. Good for him and them. I see us, literally, a few plays a game from being where we want to be. We are SO close. Burrow may or may not have helped us. So whatever. He’s not as good here as he is there cuz he was never here. I’m not crying about what could have been. I’m going to exalt in the sweet river when we get there cuz I never thought we wouldn’t be there. Fan for Life, Go Big Red...lets ride with who we have 1 Quote Link to comment
