Damien Martinez Appreciation Thread

[SSCanes]

Looked like a human wrecking ball tonight. What do we need to pay to get him back? Congrats on another 1k yards

Whatever he asks for

 

[dorsey1]

He did what he was brought here for-

A punishing runner-

He ****ed up a lot of people trying to tackle him-

He’s gonna be a good pro wish him well.

 

[Derrick Griffin]

Weathered the storm and turned into one of my favorite players on the team.

 

[PineCo.]

Eclipsed the 1000 yard mark tonight

 

[skyman]

Tried to tell ya boys early in season stay patient. Kid was talented and came in late, needed to get in playing shape and adjusted to scheme. once he did, he did work..

 

[bdcane4eva]

Y'all have no idea how hard it's gonna be replacing him, Cam and X's production.
Hope some of you sweet hopeful dreamer mfers set the right expectations for yoselfs...

Loved Martinez this year. Will root for him in the pros. Best of luck to him.

Him getting hurt is what prevented us from scoring at least 1 additional TD with Emory in.

Dude is the best RB we've had in a while.

 

[TOcane]

Give him part of the Mateer money I don't care whatever it takes.

 

[grover]

Our offense was so good this year. Love getting to 10 wins. But what might have been…

 

[Cylo]

I'm going to miss this guy. I'm amazed he managed to go over 1k yards. He really didn't get going until the Louisville game

Yup. We get 4 more points with him on the FG drive and would have chewed clock on the next drive. Guy is a great player. Hope he comes back, but I'd be shocked if he did. Ended up averaging 6.3 ypc on the season (better than he did at OSU) after all the very stupid hand wringing about him early in the season.

So fun to watch. That first half without X, Brown, Horton and they were still balling (except the fumbles lol). At halftime I was having a blast but that all went away when I saw Emory coming into the game. Sucks we didn't go for the 11th win

 

[RozayCane]

Best RB since Duke.

I would really try and get him back.. looking like BroBall next season anyway. He’ll be worth the huge pay bump.

 

[TOcane]

Took him awhile to get going but even in the UF game it was easy to tell he was our best back.

 

[Telituesday]

Would love him back if possible. Should be plenty of touches to go around. I don’t love this qb option but would be interested to see what our rushing attack could look like if we brought Martinez back and brought in someone like drones (vt hasn’t had their bowl game yet) who could keep it

 

[Calinative]

What no talk about how he only played to get his 1k yards and quit on the team too? lol

Mario need$ to $convince$ this kid to come back. This year's RB class is loaded. Our offense is going to be a work in progress next year.

Mark Walton would like to have a word with you behind a Pizza Hut.


The disrespect is real.
