QB of the future
- Thread starter Husker21stb
- Start date
Of the future.....or of the now? As long as that shoulder is healthy, you have to imagine he has just as good a shot as any QB on the team right now to be the starter.
O'Brien and Gebbia are 4 star Cali QB's that played at the highest levels in Cali. Martinez is in that vein. The big difference is that O'Brien has been on the team two years and Gebbia one. I don't know who will start, but right now I am betting on Gebbia, then O'Brien and then Martinez.
Great recruiting job by the staff!

The more I hear from and about this recruit, the more excited I am. He has his head on straight and he has the physical abilities. He has it from the neck up AND from the neck down. It's becoming clear to me why this staff hit him first, and hit him hard.
I understand the fear of "will the shoulder heal'. It's a concern but if the doc's say OK, then I'll follow their lead. I doubt this staff would burn some other bridges just to take a long shot on Adrian if they doubted the medical prognosis.
Sounds as if he has the legs as well. I was told his 4.79 time was during his sophomore year and that he assumes he is faster now. Doesn't matter, that's fast enough for a qb at any rate imo.
Glad we got him.
Being here for spring ball does put him in the mix imo.

And, since the Offense will be new, all QBs on the roster will be starting at ground zero, giving Martinez a great chance to win the job by the fall.....
It sure feels good to finally have the confidence that our QB has been found. For some reason I feel good about this pick. and he'll have plenty of tall kids tp throw to..*Smile*!
I listened to an interview Martinez had on the Zone's Sharp and Benning show and was blown away. If you didn't know better you'd assume the person being interviewed was a classy, thirty year old assistant college coach. I had to smile at the end of the interview because Damon laughed and asked Adrian, "Are you SURE you're not actually 33 years old?"
If AM is anywhere near as athletically talented as he is intelligent and mature for his age, we've got ourselves one hell of a QB. BTW, if you're interested in hearing it yourself, the interview is available online.
