Oliver Martin Derangement Syndrome

A transcript where he says that would be acceptable. Or audio, whatever you prefer.

Offensive tackles Alaric Jackson and Tristan Wirfs and defensive tackles Cedrick Lattimore and Brady Reiff all paid a price beyond missing the season opener.

“They did community service work. It's a pretty standard rule we have,” Ferentz said Tuesday “They got four hours in on Friday and eight more on Saturday and missed the game. But they're in mind and spirit, and they came back Sunday and we've welcomed them back, and they're all doing a good job. Really happy with the way they've handled it.
 
Thank you for providing the evidence. I take back what I said about him not starting in a game.

Whether he started a game or not is irrelevant. You are trying to make it sound like Martin transferred because he wasn’t going to play at Michigan when that’s obviously not the case.

I can't believe it. Just outrageous.

I think Martin would've seen the field I just don't honestly believe he would've been targeted that much, which is why he transferred. He knew he would have a better time at receiving targets at Iowa, and the fact that it was his hometown helps a lot too.

Wait, missing the game is a pretty far stretch from "not watching the game" as you said. Certainly you have that quote somewhere and accidentally linked this instead.

Honest mistake.
 
Good for Iowa and Oliver. This reminds me of when we got Dvario Montgomery, a lot of hype and then didn't produce.
 
Our baby brothers over on Hokeye Pokey Forum are all up in arms over the rumors of Oliver Martin leaving Michigan and transferring to the hoks. Apparently this isn't quite correct.

Talked with his dad over the weekend: Facts
He loves Michigan.
He's not ever leaving.
If he did, ISU would be his lean more then Iowa.
His field efforts do not out weigh his degree efforts.

Iowa's lack of WR involvement hurt and is still hurting with the newest recruits.

ISU adds a grad transfer that had 500 yards on an SEC team last season.

Iowa fan: “ISU’s WRs are garbage and haven’t proven anything”

Iowa adds a transfer with 126 career yards

Iowa fan: “Huge addition!!! We now have 5 legit WRs.”
I brought up the fact that we have 7 WR's in the mix and they did not agree with what I said.

Tareek Milton may have had that many yards in one game last season. Too lazy to check.

That’s fine. I know literally nothing about guys like Shaw, Wilson, or Martin. Just pointing out that Iowa has actual depth at WR, which is something that could not be said in the past. I don’t think Iowa State has much of a talent advantage at the WR position amongst the top 5 guys for each respective team, which is all you really need (at least for Iowa) anyways.

Milton had 34 catches for 417 yards last season. In the OSU and WVU games, he combined for 134 yards and 1 TD. But yes, this guy is the next Edelman.
