am glad he plays for us !!!!

Wonder what Hicks thinks of this?

 

[ArminRU]

I think Martin has a huge year in 2016

 

[AreYouNUTS]

Yeah there are better ways to put things....kind odd IMHO...but kids will be kids.

 

[Spare130]

I don't even get what he's trying to say

 

[OldManRiver]

Whatever motivates him...I'm OK with.
If this motivates Hicks...all the better for us...No?

I guess. I probably would have gone with "watch out 1 and 2 I'm comin' to get you" or something like that.

Think this is a slight shot at Flood.

That's how I took it. And it inspired him, it didn't get him down

 

[KaKaKen]

He runs angry because he is angry

 

[garyrc70]

Hopefully the new coach gives equal opportunity to both. Even with a new offense you need to RBs..But watch Peoples. He may fit well with the new offense..

Actually - take a few minutes and think about it - he has said something interesting , clever & on the mark.
Remember at the start of the year - and throughout most of the season, the backfield was this three man rotation - of ...James - Hicks - Martin ... not always the same order - but always the "rotation" was paramount ... it took priority - regardless of whether or not one guy got super hot - - -

so ... on some level each one of the three of them must have felt like they were
- "the back-ups back-up"
This is not a swipe at a teammate - but it is a moment of venting - venting at & about the rigid "rotation" that had to have been incredibly frustrating.

Flood underused Martin. I have no doubt that Ash or anyone else with a clue would have Martin as the #1 back.

 

[RutgersSam]

Martin is very good but Hicks is our most talented back. Both have near NFL talent IMO.

Now about that offensive line...

 

[Goo]

Didn't I read somewhere that one of our incoming coaches is a social media expert? Coach M. maybe? He needs to have a sit down with the team. We can't have kids being kids.

 

[RBNY87]

Martin and Hicks rotated at #2, James was #1 and had the most starts while the leading rusher varied

 

[TheHandOfChaos]

Think this is a slight shot at Flood.

[RUtrumpet92]

Whose turn is it to tweet next, James or Hicks? I lost track.

 

[RUtix4me]

Hicks does not use social media from what I can tell.

 

[rufeelinit]

Hicks and Martin are both very good and worthy of playing time. The issue was Floods commitment to a set rotation regardless of who had the hot hand and was running well. He would rotate three and at times bring Goodwin in on 3rd down passing situations. I think you can feature two backs but not more than that.

They were in total control of social media at tOSU.:rolleyes:
