    Thanks Taft!

    Did Heaps transfer to Miami at one point?

    Yep.


    This kid is a loser. No wonder Sark wanted him
    The outlook does not look good.

    Looks like Martell never wanted to be a Buckeye after all. What a blessing this Fields transfer was.

    I saw a kid with a Martell jersey at the Rose Bowl.

    Their high school teammate showed (for once) why he was the top TE prospect in the country. Let's hope his fellow Bishop Gorman boys can play like he can. Miami pulled in a 5* D lineman from Vegas (Bishop Gorman specifically) a few years ago. He was a flop.

    Most of the Gorman kids flop, caz most of the get on the juice in HS. Good ones go natural in high school, then get on the juice in college

    I'm still trying to figure out why I should know this kid's name. I vaguely recall Sark offering him as a toddler, then maybe he committed or something during Pop Warner, then he never came here, then he transferred once or twice every year, then he became creep's new favorite QB.

    So why does he get so many mentions here again?

    So UW then A&M then OSU now Miami. My guess is the next stop will be somewhere like Houston or Minnesota.

    He will start at Miami. They don’t have anyone else.

    At minimum, he'll compete.

    Jarren Williams was a pretty heavily recruited kid out of Georgia and he redshirted last year. N'Kosi Perry is a talented kid but a complete buffoon, so count him out. I have some hope that the Weldon kid inherited some of his Dad's genes, but he's a redshirt freshman so I have no idea.

    I think all Diaz is really trying to do (do something!) is kill the culture of "it's my turn" down there. He's been rather public in the Herald about the need for people (thinly-veiled shots at the kids in the QB room) to remember that it used to be a big deal to play QB at Miami and you have to have what it takes to do it. In a word, he wants competition. I think Richt and his son coddled the QBs with a lot of "your turn is coming", and we don't play that stuff at Miami. Williams almost transferred but changed his mind. I see more transfers in the immediate future. Whatever. Buh bye Felicia.

    Whatever Diaz will wind up being as a coach, and I wouldn't hazard a guess, he appears to be more bottom-line than his predecessor. It Martell can play, he will play, and though I like my Qbs from Pennsylvania, or at least the somewhere in the rust belt, at this point I can't be picky.

    Is that true? I thought he picked Ohio State in 2017 as a 4*. I don't think he's been anywhere else. He couldn't beat out Barrett or Haskins. Kind of like how skinny couldn't wrestle the job away from Fromm and x-ferred to the Pac 12 Champion Huskies.

    I know Heaps went all over the place. Maybe you're confusing two 5'11" white guys who play QB. Happens all the tim.

    No need to take a senseless, cunty shot at UW or Eason. I was exaggerating for the amusement.

    My only point, other than what I just mentioned, was to wonder why Martell gets followed so much here. He hasn't had anything to do with UW since he committed to Sark as an 8th grader (iirc). He never even came close to coming to UW and he can't even be viewed as a huge miss.

    senseless and cunty? Fuck off and tuff'n up boy. This is HCH. If you get your feelings hurt easily, LEAVE! You were joking and so was I. Pull the string; that's what it's for.

    I had never heard of the guy before the x-fer talk started. IDRGAF who he is, where he's from or what connection he ever had to UW. I only care if he can make a run for the starting position.

    Yeah, just one. He didn't play.

    Honestly never heard of the kid. I mostly pay attention to Miami recruiting. I get my national news from the guru, @StrongArmCobra , who has that shit dialed in like @IrishDawg22 on a message board.

    The only time I hear about a Bishop Gorman kid is when Miami is recruiting them. It's fucking Vegas for Peat's sake. So far, they are 2 for 2, with the D line washout a few years ago and Brevin Jordan, who is going to continue the U as undisputed "TE U".

    Early Life
    Tate Martell grew up in the San Diego area, where he began playing Pop Warner football at the age of 7. He drew attention due to the fact that he was a throwing quarterback, when most kids at that age were running quarterbacks. He even drew attention of the coach of Washington at the time, Steve Sarkisian, who managed to get Martell to commit at the age of 14 (he later de-committed and decided to explore further options).[1]

    High school career
    Martell attended Poway High School, the local high school where he grew up, but was only able to lead them to a 4-7 season. He then transferred to Bishop Gorman High School in Las Vegas, Nevada.[2] He attended Bishop Gorman for his sophomore, junior and senior seasons, but graduated from Desert Pines High School in Las Vegas because Bishop Gorman would not allow Martell to graduate early in order to start the Spring semester at Ohio State University. As a senior, he was the Gatorade Football Player of the Year after leading the team to a 15–0 record, while passing for 2,362 yards and 41 touchdowns, and rushing for 1,253 yards and 21 touchdowns.[3][4] For his career, he went 45–0 as a starter and finished second in Nevada history with 7,510 passing yards and 113 touchdowns.[5] Martell and quarterbacks Jake Fromm and Tayvon Bowers were documented in the Netflix series QB1: Beyond the Lights.

    Recruiting
    Martell was rated by Scout.com as a five-star recruit and was ranked as the second best dual-threat quarterback, fifth best quarterback of any type, and 56th best player overall in his class.[6] He originally committed to the University of Washington when he was 14.[7][8] In 2015, he changed his commitment to Texas A&M University.[9] In May 2016 he decommitted from A&M and a month later committed to Ohio State University.[10][11] Martell transferred to Desert Pines High School after his senior season, so that he could graduate and enroll at Ohio State early.[12]

    College career
    Transfer
    On January 15, 2019, Martell announced on social media that he would be transferring from Ohio State to Miami (FL). He will be eligible to play in 2020 with two years of eligibility remaining.[13

    Apparently Ohio State doesn't like his arm. I wonder what they would have said Brownlee. It'll be chintresting either way, especially since they lost out on what's his face.

    I hope the Williams kid from Georgia sticks around and pans out. He supposedly has a live arm.

    His real name is Tathan, learned that recently.
