Rumor RUMOR - Taylor Martinez Prima Donna Transfer Imminent!
Have you heard the latest?
No?
Well.. it turns out that Bo Pelini's blow up at Taylor Martinez was because he talked to his dad on a cell phone during the Texas A&M game. Bo wants to suspend Martinez for breaking team rules, but daddy Martinez wants to transfer and doesn't want anyone to know that his son is suspended because other schools may not want him as much and then Bo agreed to let him wear a boot and fake an injury and everyone hates Taylor Martinez because he's a prima donna even though just a few weeks ago he was the greatest thing ever in the history of Nebraska football.
Then they all had sex with cheerleaders?
No.
So there's no sex with cheerleaders?
No.
Well, add it, then, BECAUSE WITHOUT HIDDEN LUST AND FORBIDDEN DESIRE THERE'S NO MINI-SERIES HERE, FOLKS.
Added, sex with cheerleaders.
It's a go!
"Two or three different sources all report a general version of events as this: "
1. Bo's meltdown against Taylor on Saturday night. All agree it was over a cell phone. When Taylor was injured, he was taken to the A&M locker room because that is where the X-Ray facility was. After being X-rayed and cleared, rather than hurry and return to the team, Taylor left the medical staff to walk all the way over to NU's locker room, retrieve his cell phone, and have a conversation with his father. All told, Taylor and his dad waste 10-20 minutes. Bo is pissed on two different levels. One, he needs the kid back in the game and he's wasting time. Two, Bo has a very explicit rule about cell phones in the locker room and on the field. Evidently, Taylor has been busted for this kind of thing in the past.
Taylor comes back out on the field and the medical staff informs Bo of Taylor's activities. You saw the conversation that ensued on national TV. Not pleasant. There are several 'lip-reader' interpretations out there. All have to do with a phone call.
2. Upon returning to Lincoln, the next day finds Taylor's dad having shown up on campus. He's pissed. This has happened with Taylor's dad in the past and Bo pretty much hates dealing with it. They have a meeting with Taylor, Taylor's dad, and Pelini. Pelini explains that Taylor has violated team rules and will be suspended for a game. Evidently, Taylor's dad completely loses it, stating that it is their intention to transfer from NU to somewhere else and that calling it a 'suspension' will keep teams from wanting his son. Bo says, "Fine, call it whatever you want, but your son isn't playing on Friday." The meeting doesn't end well. Rumors swirl like crazy Sunday night that Taylor has quit the team. Technically, he hasn't, but there is enough truth in there to know that something has happened.
3. The next day, Taylor shows up with a walking boot on his foot to practice. Him and his dad want him to wear the boot so that people will believe that he is not playing this week because of his ankle, not because he's 'suspended'. As a 'screw you' to Pelini, however, Taylor wears the boot on the wrong foot, causing all sorts of confusion and strange questions from the press. Taylor, in his odd way, thinks this is all some kind of funny joke.
4. Then they all had sex with cheerleaders. Some had it twice. Except for one guy who just watched.
As this little stunt makes its way through the team, former players such as Phillip Dillard start piping up via Twitter and Facebook, describing their thoughts on Taylor and his established history of stunts like this, neglect for team rules, his over-obsessive daddy, etc. Phil calls on the Unity Council to dismiss Martinez from the team. Speculation is that current players are the source of Dillard's anger.
What the 'inside' people are reporting is this: Taylor Martinez is gone after this season. All agree this is the case. He may not play another game for Nebraska. Taylor wants to be gone, Taylor's dad wants him gone, and Bo and the rest of the team want him gone. Everyone within the program, from the coaches to the players, are tired of his prima donna attitude, helicopter dad, and general lack of respect for all things Nebraska. The 'suspension' will never be publicized as such - but that's what it is according to others.

That said, I find it hard to laugh at this one. :(

Can't think of a subject
It’s just a little to close to believable to be funny, except the obvious cheerleaders line.
Got this email today.
It’s been flying around. If it’s true, good riddance. It’s not like he has done much this past month on the field anyway. We have an excellent RS freshman available next year (Byron) and two studs coming in in this years recruiting class. Plus, I’m not about ready to give up on Cody Green. Let him transfer to USC and we’ll see how that pans out for him (see Jordan Congdon).
Actually...
Jordan Congdon did just fine at USC. He was 12-16 with 39 PATs his senior year. I don’t know why he transferred but obviously he wanted to leave so he left. As fans we should accept it as such.

Hey, if you're going to add sex with cheerleaders, go all out
Taylor didn’t wait to get back to Lincoln to have sex with cheerleaders. After getting his X-Rays cleared, he had sex with an aTm cheerleader, then called his dad to brag about it. That’s what got Bo all upset. Not only did he have sex with a cheerleader during a game, but it wasn’t even a Husker cheerleader! AND he didn’t share with the team or coach. What, our hot chicks aren’t enough for you, prima donna?
Just sayin’, there’s better ways to embellish this. :-)
He didn't call
his dad after the sex, it was during.

Considering the fact that A&M doesn't have cheerleaders, only the (all-male) Yell Leaders...
… That would certainly spin this story in a new direction.
by dodge_buck_night on Dec 2, 2010 2:00 PM CST up reply actions
I didn't mean to take it in that direction, I just assumed they had women there.
But, hey, I’m not one to judge. Where was Jerod-Edie during this timeframe?
Saw this
on a crappy(used to be good) Husker message board. I think it’s a bunch of crap, but who knows right now. Just beat the Sooners. GBR.
Leave the gun. Take the cannoli.
To anyone reading this
And thinking about breathlessly linking to it on a message board, Facebook, or Twitter: Please note the following -
It’s a JOKE.
Let's hope!
I honestly thing Taylor is one of the best players to hit Nebraska, not forgetting Suh, in awhile. If Taylor with 1-2 years under his belt and Suh

There is some rumors with more substance in the Tramel Podcast Thread.
Why this made the front page, I have no idea.
Wonderful...
Yet another chapter in this gawd-awful soap opera called “As The Final Season Turns”.
Why Corn Nation posted this, I don’t understand. You KNOW alot of people will not see the tongue-in-cheek nature of this article and will run with it. Just what we need two days before the game, more fodder for all of the Husker-haters and incompetent journalists out there.
Basically what CN did
Was take the exact text of the email rumor that’s been going around today and add “sex with cheerleaders” to make fun of it.
Is it going to confuse some people whose sarcasm detector is broken? Yeah.
Is it particularly funny? Meh.
But I don’t have a big problem with it. If Jon (or whoever writes these Cobby posts) wants to make fun of rumormongering, more power to him.
by Cheeseandcorn on Dec 2, 2010 2:19 PM CST up reply actions
I have a problem
with giving ANY credence to an email rumor, even in a satirical manner. There has been so much BS floating around our team this year, why would CN help stir the pot, even in a joking manner?
OK, maybe I’m just tired and fed up with all of it, and have completely lost my sense of humor. Some of the replies here have made me snicker, though, so there’s still hope for me!
You've got a good point
CN is the biggest site that I know of to acknowledge this rumor, which may not be a good thing.
by Cheeseandcorn on Dec 2, 2010 3:17 PM CST up reply actions
But it's out there, spreading
So Cobby felt we should address it. And this is how he did.
If nothing else it casts a light on it, gets people talking about it, without promoting it as a “sources indicate”. This type of run away speculation gives “the internet bloggers” a bad name.

I couldn't care less.
I was never sold on Martinez, and frankly, never liked the guy. I have previous comments to prove that.
Don't disagree with you, redvalley
I’m not keen on this whole topic, and my vote (not that I have one) would have been to not give it any play. I keep thinking about how the comments must look to Taylor Martinez and his family. My oldest son was a varsity runner in the Big 10, and I know I would have hated to see him get dragged across the coals like this. The addition of a slur on cheerleaders didn’t help at all either.

Couple ?s
1) Am I to believe this rumor that Bo Pelini was involved in a ruse? I highly doubt that Bo would allow this to happen.
2) Assuming this is a suspend-able offense, why would Bo allow Taylor to see the field in second half of A&M let alone even suit up for CU.
2) Former players are contacting the unity council (which I thought was secret amongst the current players) to TELL them to vote to kick someone off the team? I find this extremely difficult to believe.
I have read 3 different variations of this email and all of them are deleted from my inbox. Let’s go beat OU! GBR!
I'm on record immediately after the CU game
As saying I don’t think Martinez will see the field for NU next year. But this rumor (the original version, not Cobby’s “sex with cheerleaders” version) just doesn’t pass the smell test. It sounds too much like a practical joke that was just realistic enough to be believed.

So Cobby’s “Sex with cheerleaders” version does pass the smell test?
;-)
I wonder if the cheerleaders in Miami have to pass a smell test.
Or any of the others in the dirty south, for that matter. : )

YYYEEEEEAAAAAHHHHH Kitty!
But wouldn’t it be better with “give me a D.A.N.”?
You mean the higher numbers/stripes this year?
I actually think it’s an improvement.

Just in general
The helmets that always seem off-white (I suppose that is the cream part?). Idk, I guess after seeing Va Tech’s uniforms in their opening game versus Boise set the bar a bit high for me.
They just seem so basic and bland. Yeah, yeah, tradition schmadition, but I’d like to see something new. Maybe lose those stupid stripes on the shoulders, or something, idk.
I must be menstruating.
Re: Helmets
They seem even “creamier” this year. I’m always wanting to dip them in a bucket of bleach.
I like the way we look this year.
The uniforms seem to be getting better the longer we’re with adidas. I remember the ’94 team wearing three different number/name fonts or something. This year is a much better design and a great fit.
Mrs. Rev is an Oregon native, and we both love the Ducks uniforms most of the time, but they’re “new money” in CFB and, IMO, they can go crazy. But your Nebraska, Penn State, Michigan types should always be very close to the same.

Agreed.
I don’t care much about uniforms, but I might freak out a bit if Nebraska ever underwent some radical changes in a misguided attempt at “relevance.”

He did go through 3 different high schools as a
sophomore, junior & senior, supposely because he couldn’t fit it or get along with anyone. My brother called this the day after the A&M game. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if we don’t see him next year wearing a Big Red uniform.
Another thing to keep in mind
about Martinez is his parents divorced when he was 13, and he chose to live with his father, which could have made their bond even closer than normal. And his father has said that he (father) went through a pretty bad depression, which Taylor helped him through.
Add to that the three different schools and, probably having to build all new friendships at each one…well, it seems to be a pretty tough path for a young kid to have travelled.
I'm not seeing how that tranlates into winning games.

Because you're not a woman, Herpie
(your joke about menstruating aside!) We gals look at life with more of an emotional eye. And I think this kid has had a whole bunch of things thrown at him in his young life.
Plus, college football is not the NFL (supposedly).
Nope,
so far, three of us panty wearers have come out of the ladies’ room!
Your bravery is commended.
Now if only some of these boxer-brief wearing “Men” here would come out of the closet. :::runs and hides:::
Hey, WHOA!
Let’s not go too far. The amoral cheerleaders can stay. ;-)
You guys are fun.
"Every player we have, someone-maybe a parent, a grandparent, someone-poured their soul into that young man. They are handing that young man off to us. They are giving us their treasure, and it's our job to make sure we give them back that young man intact and ready to face the world."
-J.V.Pa.
Figured I would post this here since I'm pretty sure BON is in the process of giving me the ban hammer.

Any chance
you can change the player to one of those creepy statue of a Texas player? That would be awesome.
Herpie, you THIEF!
You stole my soon-to-be-copyrighted saying. Lawsuit is pending…
My apologies, but didn't I warn you I was going to steal it?
In any event, I will split the residuals with you ; )
K, so...
Cell phone usage in a locker room during an NCAA sporting event is a violation of NCAA rules, see: gambling.
So if that’s honestly the case, the NCAA will start sniffing around Lincoln.

Haven't checked out the rules but,
Taylor Martinez was getting medical care; is there no provision for checking with a parent about a decision on treatment options that could have been in front of him?

REALITY CHECK
If this was true, why is Martinez even in the conversation then to play the Big XII champ. game when he’s obviously still injured. Wouldn’t we want to give Cody more experience, whose completely healthy? I don’t know, it just seems a bit extreme to me.
Yeah
Especially that ‘sex with cheerleaders’ part. Just not quite believable.
