We would take Taylor Martinez in a minute. Think of the yards he would get vs. Belt D's, not B10 or B12 D's!

Loved the video…instead of the "Blackshirt" defense how about we incorporate the….wait for it…
BLUE WAVE DEFENSE

Though some of us now get yelled at for remembering the "older" days at FAU I think it's a perfect homage for the new stout d Pelini will bring in!

Martinez in the Belt would rip apart the defenses. He would win the Belt player of the year every year. Go Owls!

Just starting to read a little about what Nebraska fans think of Pellini.  If you can go by what you see on their Rivals board, it doesn't look like they are too upset about losing him.

This is dissappointing....

Haven't heard anyone mention this yet, but opinion's on Pelini's supposed affair? Linky (I know it's a TAMU board, but it kind of breaks everything down)

One good thing might come from this is a pipeline to the jucos in the west and mid west. We had success with one juco player before, i.e. LESTAR JEAN. Maybe that trend ca continue.

Let's give the guy at least three seasons before we make any decisions.  Two years in we should see a direction, three years gives an idea if he will succeed or fail.

JUCO's, while good depth stop gaps, should NOT be the way any team is built.  Take one, maybe two, each recruiting cycle only if your depth is that bad, but be sure to recruit a few of the same position in that cycle to build it.

Anyway, back to our future coach, the key will be who else he surrounds himself with, which has me concerned.  Other than Nebraska, he doesn't have stops that make you think about impressive coaching trees.  Filling out this staff with good coaches may prove to be the bigger challenge.
