Martinez Makes The Maxwell Award List
- Thread starter Red Reign
- Start date
We need to recruit more kids with the name Martinez.
I don't mean to pump the brakes unnecessarily, but there are EIGHTY players on the watch list at the moment (full list below). There are a total of 11 other B1G players besides Martinez. We play nine of them (not Michigan and PSU). Since we can't control what happens in other conferences, the best chance is for Adrian to have big games against these other contenders head-to-head.
Of particular importance are Ohio State and Iowa, since they represent the other QBs on the watch list. If Martinez can have more favorable stats, he'll at least be on the inside track for Maxwell candidates in the Big Ten, unless, of course, one of the RBs blasts off for something like 1500 yards on the ground this year. I don't see a Big Ten WR making the cut this season.
QB: Fields (Ohio State), Patterson (Michigan), Stanley (Iowa), and Martinez (NU)
RB: Corbin (Illinois), Dobbins (Ohio State), McFarland (Maryland), Scott (Indiana), Taylor (Wisconsin)
WR: Hamler (Penn State), Johnson (Minnesota), Moore (Purdue)
So in conclusion:
Time for fall football to start already.

So in conclusion:
- Yes, Martinez is special.
- Yes, he could win it.
- And yes, it's way too early.

It's like polls its only useful as fodder until the actual season starts. Fun to debate
Not that he may not be deserving, but yeah, 80 other qbs on the preseason list.
I got to see Adrian at the Highway Diner Sunday morning. Can't wait for the season to start.
I see about 8-10 QB's who have no business being on that list. There are about the same number who have already proven their ability and are in real contention. The Army and Navy QB's will never win the award.
Berry, you may be right ... still one service academy QB awarded the Heisman, Maxwell and Walter Camp trophies in my lifetime. Still think there is room for one more ...
