Ben Martin

[Cincy Vol o5]

I've seen the guy play and I realize he has potential, but just how much potential does he have?
Last Year-Fulmer said "Ben Martin will be an All-American at Tennessee."
This Year-"I love Ben Martin. I love Ben Martin," Fulmer said.

I don't know what to take of the second quote...

If he plays like he can, people will mention him in the same breath as Leonard Little

 

[jakez4ut]

i've read nothing to make me think otherwise, they like his effort, fundamentally he's good, good work ethic, good technique....by all accounts, the sky is the limit for Martin.

Anybody on the DL being consistently productive would be a welcome site. Personally I'll believe it when I see it.

 

[orange+white=heaven]

He's just 240. He'll have to be fast and use good technique.


By all accounts though, he's going to be a name we remember fondly.

I think he will be fine playing around 240-250. I wouldn't want him any bigger than that.

About what Little played at isn't it?..

It's about where some good pass rush ends in the NFL play at

Ends don't have to be huge. I hope he is the next great UT DL. Man, when is the last time we had a great D lineman? And I'm talkin' "great".

"I love Ben Martin," Fulmer said. "He plays hard on every down. He still has some technique work to do, assignment work to do. Ben Martin is one of those guys you love to coach. You love to be around him as a person, you love to watch him at practice because he's going hard everyday. I cannot wait to see him in a game."

Why didn't Martin redshirt last year????????

 

[norrislakevol]

Ben Martin has the talent to dominate at end. Hopefully he puts it together early this year.

[getyopopcornready]

He played some last year, and he was expected to contribute a lot last season until he got injured and even after he came back he was expected to contribute

 

[NEW COACH]

What game did he play in.......:ermm:

Not since the Henderson-Haynesworth days circa 2001

Did you have to post that question twice?

 

[NEW COACH]

idk. What games did he play in though?

 

[Ohiovol09]

I remember at the beginning of the season Fulmer talking about how he was going to make a big impact this year as a Freshman along with Eric Berry, but then he got injured and I didn't hear anything about Martin since then.
