However, he was a pro-style QB, not recruited by Scooter Frosty, so good decision to find another program where he is wanted.
OT: Scott Frost going to ruin a star QB?

Sorry that I proved you wrong and it obviously struck a nerve. Keep throwing shit against the wall and hoping it sticks and you will continue to get called out. Hilarious that you want to claim to know anything about Riley and his success or lack of as a coach. Typical. Talk shit. No nothing of what you speak. Get called out. Then resort to cusssing people out. So “go f yourself” herk
Good god, you sound like my ex wife. Seriously just got a flashback, like the ol’ boys from ‘Nam who hear choppers.
Back in the "hay" days, athletes were simply not as strong/fast as today's defenders, which is one of the main reasons don't see many running QBs. Running QB's (particularly in the rugged B10) won't stay healthy for very long. Regarding the general husker fan base...yes they are a delusional bunch because much of their fan base is predicting at least an 8 win season...we all know that isn't happening.
I apologize. Riley didn't win 9 games his second year. Oh wait, he did. Do you know how satisfying it has been to watch Iowa just demoralize Nebraska? To watch Nebraska quit. No heart. So much fun.
Actually, he was correct...Mike Riley did attain a 9 - 4 record at Nebby in 2016 and was one of the three 9 win coaches let go by the huskers, so how did you "prove his point wrong"?
You can’t read either? “ Nothing worse than a nine win season” was the original statement. Well ole mike went 5-6 and 4-8 and the last time I checked that is worse than a nine win season 2 out of 3 years, but you hawks would definitely know better. Reading comprehension matters.
Actually, she was selfish, short sighted, delusional and a horrible person. The reasons I got away from her. Luckily for you, you’re only short sighted and delusional. So far.
Not to take away from your victory but that team quit in damn near every game last year. They were gutless. I was just glad to see the team play 4 quarters of inspired football. However, they played like a team with a new coach, freshman qb, in their first game. If Martinez is ok we’ll be ok and should make a bowl. If Martinez is out then look out, it’s going to be ugly. We’re down to a couple young walkons.
I did not include Riley - it was answered above, you all threw guys that were winning (and hired a guy that hadn't proven squat in PAC12.
I believe Tristian Gebbia was a California kid who was teammate of the Keyshaun Johnson, Jr.. Leaving before the season and going back to California made some sense because the California schools did not start classes until after Labor Day week. Cannot believe the kid chose Oregon State. Kid must be smoking something with Keyshawn.
Well, the relevant history is Pelini- who was raging and becoming a bit unstable. You'll notice he's still coaching the Penguins at Youngstown State and Riley, who was a really nice guy but inadequate coach- and had been given an extension early in a 4-8 season by the later-fired AD.
Yes, Iowa consistency, at this point, would be nice as a beginning and a better destination than the last 16 years have produced. What am I supposed to say? Win the west every other year and national title game every 4? Righto...
Yes. The now irrational optimism on Hail Varsity and from certain fans is starting to make me shake my head a little. It's a perfect storm of awful events compressed over a couple weeks and looking nearly certain to flush a season that was going to have to work for bowl eligibility in the first place. You can't lose someone as good as Martinez and then just reload from the 3rd string guy, barring an unlikely performance.
STAR QB INJURED AND NO BACKUP? WE'RE IN GREAT SHAPE!! BRUNCH (SIC) WILL DO A GREAT JOB!
I'm not saying the Big 10 is tougher now. I'm saying back 2 decades ago in Nebraska's hay day when they were relevant the QBs were built more like RBs than your modern QBs. And looking back at Frosts and Eric Crouchs stats they ran more than they passed. I don't see how you expect a guy who isn't built as a runner to be the leading rusher of a team as a passing QB and last an entire B1G season without getting injured.
With golden boy coming home the husker fan base feels they can erase the last 20 years and take cfb by storm. The initial reluctance of frost to take the job is due to the unrealistic expectations of the fan base. They think they are the smartest fans in the country and it’s only because of unlucky circumstances, bad hires, that they have been average to below average the past 20 years. Their talk of getting to and winning national championships nowadays is laughable.
The reality is cfb landscape is night and day different than it was back then. Steroid use is no longer rampant, nutrition is down to a science. Injuries are much more prevalent to qbs who are slated to run 15 times a game especially in a conference that emphasizes stopping the run due to the geography (cold games, etc.). Their fan base delusionally thinks am is the second coming of mike Vick even though he hadnt played a game in over a year and had two early turnovers Saturday.
Unfortunately a player who shows he can be releckless with the ball usually doesn’t change that characteristic overnight. Their fan base believes turnovers are just bad luck when it happens to them, but they are in fact a very real part of the game which is why so many coaches emphasize getting turnovers on defense and taking care of the ball on offense.

Your 2 cents is worth much less. Martinez is our best QB, and he's very good for a freshman. If he is healthy, he will play. If he isn't, he won't. Is that simple enough for a simpleton?
Do we instead put our walkon backup in to shelter our best QB from the big mean B1G Conference? Bunch will probably play this weekend, but Martinez gives us the best chance to win games, so he will play if the Drs. say he is OK. I would suspect you couldn't keep the kid off the field anyway if he is healthy.
BTW, we will murder Northwestern.
Oh shut up already.. When your team comes remotely close to winning a national title, you can open your mouth. But until then, the fact Frost won a national title as a player, not to mention running for over a thousand yards as a QB en route to that title, would indicate that Frost is much further away from puss status than pretty much any player on a team that never won a national title. Digest that..
Why would we need to digest the past? It’s long gone. If there’s anything to be digested it’s what exists in the present. It’s the shit sandwich that your football program has morphed into. Take another bite.
Actually, winning a MNC is not required before posting on a message board, nor is your permission.
BTW- Your team hasn't won one in 20 years and yet you are allowed to post (for some reason).
56-14 digest that.
Your only recognized NC is 56 and that's debatable. Sorry self claimed doesn't count!
Iowa didn’t vote themselves in those years, they were voted in by NCAA designated major selectors. And 1958 isn’t really debatable (not 1956) if you are asserting that an LSU team that wouldn’t play against teams with black players has any legitimacy you’re being dense.
Ours are as mythical as yours. The only champions that aren’t are the last four that made it through the playoffs.
Lol, 21 years ago. Guys a douche as a human being. Closet hider. Hides while domestic violence happens saves himself...let's her get beat up. But ya, keep your NC. I wouldn't want one to get it the way they did.
Besides good ol' scotty had the Florida job and wanted it.....BAD. Florida was his first choice, and his wifes. Known facts...
Sore frickin loser like Pelini, Cant even give the other team credit for beating your asses.

Pac 12 said "nothing to see here". B1G wont do squat either, chew on that. What's the point , what can be done? Ya lost, get over it. Spilt milk.
Ya, the mean ol' B1G. Debra just had their worst season ever....IN THE B1G!!!!!! THATS RIGHT WORST EVER IN THE MEAN OL' B1G. What's your point? Youre one of those guys that wants to go back to the Lil 12 north aren't ya? Lol

Here is why you’re wrong.
Again that is all BS. 7 years later Alabama was not segregated and they played a segregated team from Nebraska in the 1966 Orange Bowl and beat Nebraska 39-28 for the 1965 National title..
Let me know when someone else in modern time beats the #2,#3,#4 in country at seasons end which Nebraska accompliced in 1971..
The historical record stands on its own merit. LSU played a schedule against a bunch of like minded white boys who couldn’t compete against racially integrated teams like the B10 had. The only teams with a pulse that LSU played was Florida #14 Ole Miss #11 and Clemson #12 in their bowl game.
Iowa played 7 ranked teams in 1958 going 5-1-1 and four of those opponents were ranked in the top 10 at year end. LSU played no one at that level. Any objective person can easily see who the deserving champion was in 1958.
And that’s why I’m right and your example doesn’t convince anyone otherwise. Whites only Bama beating an integrated 1960s Husker team has no impact on those facts.
