Why Did TATE MARTELL FAIL at UNLV...

Tate Martell is one of the most polarizing names in football. He was a five star prodigy, but sadly his time in college did not go to plan. He struggled at Ohio State and Miami before he went home to Vegas to try and save his career, even that didn't work and he retired, what went wrong?

[@marquisewilliams6323]

The short answer, he simply wasn’t that good. This athleticism in youth football and high school simply didn’t translate to college football, where everyone is a good or great athlete. Also as a passer he was a bit overhype (rightfully so because of his amazing high school career) but once he had to compete with guys who could throw the ball as well. His arm limitations and what he could do athletically, had him over shine by better players. He never owned his football and passing skills, yes his arm wasn’t the greatest but for guys like manziel and baker, they made it work with very good athleistm and quickness to extend plays, as well as having quick and confident decision making and confidence. The fact that his didn’t get many reps at Miami and only played at UNLV a horrible team, when other QBs went down showcased how truly behind his was a Division 1 quarterback.

I can add some insight on what happened at UNLV: During Springball and Summer workouts it as a QB battle between Friel/Brumfield/Rogers which was an extremely tight group. Then last minute before Fall Camp Arroyo brings in Martell to seemingly just snipe the QB1 job from underneath them. It created huge resentment with the entire team based on his reputation. I thought Martell was the best QB in practice--but Arroyo couldn't give him a real shot without losing the team. He ended up naming Justin Rogers as the starting QB who was the worst QB out of the bunch...and completely incompetent until he was benched in favor of Doug Brumfield who was the starter until a season ending injury sidelined him for the true Freshman Cameron Friel who finished up the season as FOY for the MWC in a 2-10 season. UNLV is a mess, now they brought in Harrison Bailey from Tennessee now who will likely oust the current QBs from the starting job again.

Scott, you should go back around 10 years ago or so and see how all the 5 star recruits in a class ended up. I think it would be interesting to see how many are NFL stars as opposed to guys who didn't do as well, if they did anything at all.

[@epicjuk9658]

Really enjoyed this video thank you

[@loumencken9644]

Here's someone who deserves a video- Frank Ryan, the last quarterback to lead the Browns to an NFL championship. He was a starting quarterback for the Browns in the 1960s, including their championship year of 1964, and had a distinguished 13 year pro career (including 3 pro bowls). His off-the-field career was totally unique; in his NFL off-seasons, he got a PhD in mathematics and after football worked in teaching (he was a lecturer in math at Yale for ten years, presumably the only former NFL player to do that) and business. However, he played so long ago there may not be much film on him.

[@quintonworden6318]

I remember being pretty excited when he signed with OSU. His mobility made him a perfect fit for what coach Meyer wanted in a qb and I do admit I fell into the hype about him because his HS career was so incredible. The Buckeyes were just coming off having JT Barrett and Braxton Miller but that style of play was getting figured out and it showed whenever OSU wasn't able to just win on their talent alone. Once Ryan Day took over it was clear Tate didn't really have a place in the offense anymore and in the years since it seems like just about everyone except a few triple option teams have gone away from using run first QBs. I didn't particularly mind his attitude at first but there is a fine line between confident and arrogant that quickly dissappears when you aren't living up to expectations. Quite frankly the game passed him by and he was either too arrogant or not talented enough as a QB to adapt.

[@dannyh5937]

Urban Meyer leaving OSU played a big role in Taint's downfall. You can tell Urban liked Taint and it looked like Taint would be starting in 2 years. Once Urban left it felt like no coach in college football believed in Taint and his talents at QB. That tweet Taint sent to Justin Fields about transferring to OSU sealed his fate. He went from the "chosen one" to the clown in a blink of an eye. The fact that every college he transferred to wanted him to play a different position shows that he wasn't that good at qb....

[@rshelley7496]

one of his problems I think was establishing a pattern of school hopping thru out his whole football career practically and so as to never establish any chemistry w any given team...at least at ohio state he played a little and had some stats but the problem there was he wasn't beating out guys like Haskins or Fields...he may have had a better chance to play after them and w the offensive talent there he may have been ok or better..then again does CJ Stroud still happen??

[@ScottFisherCFB]

Sorry for the lower audio quality for his early years

[@patrickn8355]

As a buckeyes fan, martell could have succeeded there, but thought he was a gift from God and should start immediately. That's just not how OSU QB's tend to be. Yes, there are exceptions lime haskins and Miller, but if you're not humble and just shut up and put in the work; you'll never play there

[@Tm-ht8uk]

Most people forgot about him like 3years ago

[@theslickrips5904]

Does anyone else not see that he was a 2star qb with a strong arm playing with a bunch d-1 players against high schoolers who probably rarely had more than a couple of any recruits.

Like most Buckeyes fans we're all excited when he committed. At the time he committed to Urban Meyer regime which run the QB RUN alot that's something Tathen was very good at. Once Day took over things started to change he wasn't a good fit to play QB from the pocket. He did seem lil entitled I never liked his transfer options going to Hurricanes but he did let his ego get the best of him way to often.

[@danporter1176]

No he was never good. Urban tried to use him a little bit as a redzone qb but even that was short lived and a stupid idea. After his first spring game any hype went away

[@srami004]

I know someone who was involved in QB1 when Tate was there, and sure he was in HS but in this guys words, you could tell if Tate didnt change his ways he was gonna flop.

His problem in my opinion is lack of accountability , bouncing around that many schools and not playing at any of them it's clearly not the coaches or schools that are the issue....all you're doing at that point is transferring the problem which is yourself. It hurts to look in the mirror and be 100% honest with yourself and tell yourself things you do not want to hear but you know are true but it is the only way you will improve in life....like you said he never failed before heading off to college and he still thought he was the man regardless where he was. You have to eat the truth to be able to progress...i also never understood why he didn't just drop down a division so he could get on the field he kept going to one big school to another, maybe he felt like he was too good to attend D1-AA school but in reality he wasn't too good to attend a school like that

[@egbluesuede1220]

Part of the answer is that college football changed. IF Urban Meyer remained as coach, Tate may have been a good college quarterback similar to JT Barret, who is playing Canadien Football. But when Ryan Day became coach, he was part of a trend in College Footballl towards a more Pro style passing game, which did not fit Tate's skillset. Coach Day now produces top level pro QBs on a regular basis, a trend that will likely continue. I did wish things worked out better for this young man, but timing sucks sometimes.

[@Gopherll]

Coach Day produces pro QBs on a regular basis? Like who? He's been a head coach like 2-3 years, he hasn't produced a solid NFL QB yet

[@djonian]

Yes, its a legit point that Day taking over for Urban was a factor in Martell losing favor. Urban was all about the run game FIRST and dual threat guys from Alex Smith to Tim Tebow to Braxton Miller to JT Barrett to Cardale Jones. All those guys could plant a foot and go and were only avg throwing the football. Day prefers statues who throw darts. Martell's days were numbered once Urban left.

[@tstan6827]

@@Gopherll- Perhaps @egbluesuede1220 was a bit over zealous. However, since becoming head coach in 2019 (QB coach in 2018), Ryan Day has produced #15 pick Dwayne Haskins, #11 Justin Fields, and #2 CJ Stroud. Not bad for three straight QBs!

It genuinely seems like it was his ego that kept him from progressing and getting on the field. Clearly every college coach he played under saw this. His mind set was probably more focused on playing right away instead of learning and becoming better at the position. It is a shame, he probably could have been a really great QB.

He always liked to spark shit with other players, even on his own team, all the way since HS. Even on QB1 these traits can be observed, he talks and acts on the show as if he has it all made, like he was going to go into college with the same shitty antics and find instant success. He's a good athlete; hell I'd say he was a good QB, but it's clear that his immaturity in itself not only led his coaches to not trust him as a leader on the field, but also might have been the reason that he never took the steps needed to develop into a true college athlete; he likely didn't want to give up his pride and listen to those that wanted to help him succeed.

Poor Tate. Shouldve stayed w/ us. Kouldve changed his position and got more playing time. He just isnt a elite qB Bruh. More a slot wr. God Bless him and his loved ones.

Lol I don’t think any kid who has a dad. Who starts a school and poaches all the public school talent to aid his son, but then disbands the school after his son ended up at WVU. David Sills got exactly what he had coming to him. A regular life

[@MikeyReadman]

He's on the Giants.

Who is tate Martel?

[@WillyMcCoy14]

I watched that season of QB1 and he obviously comes from money. I'm sure his family will give him every opportunity to live well. So can't hate on a dude that's privileged and rich

[@oh.....5075]

He had a weak arm from what somone told me that's close to OSUs football program he had a weak arm. Justin Fields is alot better bigger arm more athletic etc easy decision for Day.
