  Well this isn't confirmed yet. Right now it is still a rumor.
• Trueblue23

  

  It's all over Nebraska's rivals board. Their writers are saying the same thing.

  it might be true, but who knows. I seriously thought that after he came from the locker room that he might have tried to check himself back into the game against the doctor's orders and was getting an ass reaming

  Dumb move by a dumb kid

  Still just a rumor, but if he did quit, that's pretty weak.

  It's one thing to get on a kid.. but to poke him in the chest and scream in his face on national tv.. can you blame him?
  
  There's an article on Yahoo about him right now. Nebraska chancellor saying Bo will be talked to about his actions Saturday.

  So he got screamed at and poked in the chest. You're a college football player, like you've never been screamed at before in your life. Get over it lol

  Yes maybe Bo went a little overboard but this is no worse than what Saban did to the backup QB a couple weeks ago when up by like 40. It's no reason to quit, especially if Martinez was in trouble for using his cell phone during the game.

  A coach chewing out your son? Lol it happens from the time you're in 7th/8th grade and doesnt stop even when you're in the NFL.

  I can't believe McCarron didn't quit after Saban yelled at him, and this wasn't in the middle of a close game.

  Wow so a coach chews his player out and pokes him in the chest and the kid quits. Good riddance if you ask me he isn't suited for college ball.

  People are so fucking soft nowadays, you got yelled at..get the fuck over it

  When you sign on to play at a school like Nebraska.....that's big time ball. You gotta be able to handle stuff like that. Tough it out, Taylor.

  Exactly. Maybe Bo was a little hard on him but we don't know the exact circumstances. I'm reading rumors that Martinez was using his cell phone on the sideline and wasn't willing to tough it out. Either way, there is probably more to the story but quitting is really weak and says a lot about his character.

  Huge Big Ten ramifications next year if true. Kid needs to grow up IMO.

  You're a mod here and you posted a rumor with no link as if it's a fact? I expect better from you.

  Shocking if true.

  Can't link to Rivals because it's a premium board. Sorry man.
