Welcome to The Platinum Board. We are a Nebraska Husker news source and fan community.
Sign Up Now!Most of the Wildcat fans I talk to are what I would call cautiously optimistic. They know his injury history and his turnover history....but also know he's more talented than anybody else they have on their roster.His shoulder will not be ready by August
It’s laughable people think he is gonna be good.
I don’t think he even starts at QB

I dunno about that. Will Howard is pretty bad. Not that Martinez is great but I do think he's more talented than Howard.Will Howard at QB would have won more than 3 games for Frost this year.
Especially if he had been in his 4th fucking year in the program.
I hope Howard drops his balls on Martinez in fall camp and tea bags him all season refusing to let him come in like Favre used to do with Rogers.
KSU wouldn’t even care cuz what would Martinez do… transfer? Lol
It's ironic cause a few of his lines are saying things like "I have to be better. I will be better". How the hell is he supposed to be better at throwing if he can't do it competitively until Fall Camp? DumbHis shoulder will not be ready by August

But at least he can see his girlfriend every day.No spring practice
No summer workouts and throwing with the WRs/TE
Won’t be able to go full until 2 weeks before the first game
First time he is in a different offense in 4 years
I should be getting some good info on the behind the scenes with Martinez at KSU. A friend of mine's daughter is a Classy Cat or whatever the KSU dance team is called and knows all the football players. Plus she is very good friends with Adrian's girlfriend. She said she knew about Adrian transferring there far before it was made public. I wish Adrian well in his endeavors but I think we have upgraded substantially over him. Just reading about how Casey Thompson is interacting with teammates tells me he is a leader that leads not only by what he says but also by what he actually does. He's smooth in front of the cameras and has been saying the right things. Seems like a natural leader.But at least he can see his girlfriend every day.
is she going to be his girlfriend now that Martinez is a second string qb
I’m gonna rant, AM mentally is why he sucks. Idk how he could watch football or his own film as basically a job & never improve his IQ. Most likely he’s happy win or lose & he’s like ppl who look at the stats & don’t believe he’s at fault for the loss.
I just watched him vs Oklahoma & Michigan, there’s times he just decides go turtle shell/play safe which is not really making any plays & spots our opposition 10-13 points.
His situational awareness is awful, 2 minute drive:takes a sack, throws a drag route to TE mid-field with 30 seconds, then final play throws a check down. We have a 3rd & 5 screen that gets sniffed out but AM has 4 blockers & one rushing DT who he could run from, but throws it in the dirt to punt. The Michigan fumble, how are u a 4 year starter & not understand the playcall is to get the first down, not fight for an extra yard wasting clock. I’ll never forgive his Minney 3rd & 16, where they blitz with zero coverage & Frost dials up verts for a combo of toure/Manning/betts & does Adrian understand he needs to lob it up, nope, he scrambles out of bounds, solidifying another punt.
Watching Thompson play, it’s clear he’s got a brain & I believe he’ll definitely be an upgrade
I should have plenty of info on KSU this year. One friend has a daughter who is a Classy Cat Dancer and she hangs with players. And I am friends with the parents of 2 KSU players. All of these parents are drinking buddies at the Lake so can get good drunk info from them.Gonna need that insider access cuz my my parents have moved now. Got no MHK insiders but @Gman1228 now.
My Dad used to be on the sidelines for usually 2 games a year and in the powercat boosters box for the other KSU games. (He wasn’t a donor, he is just 1 of the biggest donors only friend)
I know two kids that are student coaches on the team. I haven't asked them about Martinez because mostly I don't care.I hope he sucks. Fuck I hate the grapes.
We've got a former player that plays for the grapes, I can ask him about it as well.
