A thread like this is worthy of 1000 replies, its not right to have Martin leave town dangling at 999.

Especially after losing to transfer WR/PR JD Spielman who was unquestionably their best WR and was on track to break receiving records at Nebraska.He has a good chance to earn some playing time in a 3-win program.

Former Hawkeye and present Husker DC Eric Chinander seems to believe that the Nebraska WR group is somehow more talented this year despite losing Spielman.
The article mentions 6 WRs prominently including a JC recruit and three true freshman before stating that Martin is "also in the mix" in the last paragraph. Their WR group is seriously inexperienced. If Frost loses Wandale Robinson again for any part of the season they could be in for a long shortened season.
Geraldo is going to have him open Al Capone’s vault.
It’s the only way to up the hype.
Most are too young to get that.

and the Huskers have lost 2 corners to season ending injury the past few weeks - both reserves but their secondary is now really thin on experience behind their starters. Bootle and Taylor-Britt are decent corners (Bootle was3rd team All-B10) but a lot is unknown/untested after that. One of those guys go down its going to hurt.Have you watched how his defense defends wide receivers? Some high level junior highs would look like all pros against that group.
Excuse me, this is a Franisdaman super thread. Deleting it would be like deleting Iowa football. He spent long hours building it and you want to erase it just like that? Also, the way his football career is going, Martin might transfer back to Iowa some time next month.
it was not me who was bumping it
Well then who's bumping it? Geezit was not me who was bumping it
ooops
Well then who's bumping it? Geez

I did?? Are you sure?You did most recently, well before I just did anyway
This exactly....I never really understood the hype watching West High games...usually D1 players at high school level stick out like a sore thumb in Iowa. But I just assumed the talent evaluators know a lot more than this fan....Has anyone considered the fact that OM may have never been as good as advertised? It seems to me that his high school tape and career were kind of meh. He made his name at the rivals camp and his play on the field in high school did not match the camp hype. His high school play probably rated a low 3 star at best.

Speaking of Oliver Martin
***Lubick said Iowa transfer receiver Oliver Martin was still waiting to hear from the NCAA on his eligibility for this season. If eligible, Lubick said Martin would be able to help.

100% positive,,,you replied, it moved to the top of the heap.
That sounds like a good argument. The NCAA might already have ruled on other waiver cases that position coaching changes were insufficient "hardship" to warrant a change, however. More likely, given its the NCAA and the NCAA's Byzantine and result oriented "process" there is probably a mixed bag of results on identical or nearly identical facts. For example, a trainer leaving might be sufficient to grant a waiver to a Notre Dame or USC transfer in but the massacre of an entire coaching staff would be insufficient to grant waivers to programs like Iowa or Minnesota and our transfer ins.
The necessity of legal counsel is directly and linearly related to the ambiguity or complexity of the law, rule or regulation at issue. More a general social commentary, and since I'm retiring in the near future it doesn't make much difference to me, but we'd need far fewer lawyers if our legislators would pass fewer and far less ambiguous laws.
Here's a way to eliminate the need for lawyers in NCAA waiver cases: prohibit waivers. Everyone sits a year if they transfer. Its concise, its clear and its not subject to argument or interpretation. Arguments arise once you start creating "exceptions" to the general rule. The more exceptions, the more arguments. The more arguments, the more lawyers. Eventually the exceptions swallow the general rule and the subject of the regulation becomes a paradise for lawyers and influence peddlers.
Or don't require kids to sit....it is their labor
“That’s not me. That’s my jacket.”Dude shoulda stuck it out at Michigan.
He was vastly overrated because of one showing in a camp. His college career has proven that.Stats aren't everything but I think he has the 4A receptions, receiving yards, and rec TD record in Iowa...

How so? He earned basically zero playing time at two different schools and went to a program where I doubt anyone as a receiver lights it up. I'm pretty confident his career is going nowhere fast. However I'm sure plenty of people will talk about how great he was in high school.Might be a tad bit early to judge his career yet.
