2700 yards last year makes 3000 seem pretty attainable. I also think that the proposed run first offense paired with an emphasis on play action passes will offer more open targets. Run first offenses win championships!!! Look it up. Ultimately his destiny lies in the hands of the offensive line.

Brian Wallace

Yes, but they have to use everyone. The backs, receivers, and tight ends.

Michael McKain

Why not?! He has the talent and now the coaching.

Stephen Johnson

He may get to 3,$20001 yards but will still only win 5 games this year.

Robert Hutsell

Nearly 2700 yards under a so so quarterback's coach, so 3100 yards w a really good quarterback's coach is very possible.

David MacKay

Tommy throws one of the best deep balls ever...if he can just nail down the short and intermediate passes he has a chance for 3000++++++

Jim Jones

For the reasons stated by Athons...He wasn't too far off last year and it isnt that high of a number in this era. He definitely has the talent.

with a caveat. he will need to get much better at short and medium range passes and make better decisions with his check downs. his deep ball is already pretty good. if he does that, and I think he puts in the extra work to do so and with an actual quarterbacks coach helping I think he gets it done.

He's not going to start the entire year.

steve ruhd

Not a very good poll question, its not even a certain that he will be a starter. Knowing football and the current college landscape, I would say there is a better than 35% chance he does not start every game

Ronald D. Bull

I agree with the first two, he will not be able to stay in the pocket with rush. the BYU and Mimai GAMES WILL BE HIS DOWN FALL IF NOT JUST BYU.

Billie Mann

Weather, too big a factor in Big 10

Shelly Baker

Tommy cant throw a short or intermeidiate pass to save his life.

Gene Baker

He can't throw a short pass and an out to save his life. He just can't find the open receiver.

Bill Lee

Armstrong is nothing more than a bandaid to control the bleeding until Riley gets his players installed

Give him time to see if he can figure out a winning formula here. It's not like anyone else has been successful. Not much to lose. It's too bad there has been so little success. I think Husker fans would be overly supportive of the program especially with some improvement.

Randy Weitzenkamp

Let's face it. With a few rare exceptions, Husker basketball has never been better than mediocre at best. Let's give Fred plenty of runway to turn things around. We certainly don't have much to lose (pun not intended).

Linda Ogren

Just needs players that play DEFENCE they all know offence

Richard L. Owen

The defense has made progress. The offense not so much. The real problem is Frost's dedication to Martinez. Adrian is a great guy, but his minuses exceed his pluses.

Toby Leach

The production was there from those coaches. Better to make the decision then, so you can still have a positive impact with recruiting.

Randy Wolf

I imagine the transfer portal had a lot to do with the timing.

Nate Stineman

It had to be done and it clear that things are going to happen at NU.

Frank Johnson

The team was not going to become better with their existing staff. Make the cut and start improving.

If you are not going to make new hires before the end of the season anyway, what was the purpose in firing them now? It will be interesting to see how the offense performs, but I can't see this as beneficial.
