I was talking to a friend of mine tonight here in PA about Nebraska football. He is a big PSU fan but has always admired Nebraska. He liked TMart and asked me what he was doing these days. I had to admit that I have no idea what TMart is doing now.

So now I too am curious. Anyone know what Martinez is doing these days?

But what everyone seems to agree on is that he has left football completely behind.
Does he still keep in contact with anyone in Lincoln? Is he bitter about his time here? Pelini? Etc...?

Doesn't seem bitter.
He can't play football anymore.

Dang, I just realized I had been dyslexic reading your board name for several months - I thought it was "Pennyshusker." I moved to State College last summer start a job at PSU. If I had any visceral connection to PSU football, I could be enjoying a Big Ten championship right now. But I don't, so I'm not.

Are there Husker fan clubs in the area that hold watch parties during the season?

I don't know if there are any Husker fan clubs in or near State College where you are. State College is probably about two and a half hours from me. I know there are some Husker groups in Philly that I met once in a while. And I used to live near Allentown and at one time there was a Husker group there but it kind of fell apart. There are none near me now in Wilkes Barre. The odd thing is, is that many of these groups seem to have met their demise as soon as we joined the B1G and you could watch every game on TV on the B1G network at home. I know one of the reasons I would meet with the Allentown group was we went to this particular bar that would tune in its Satellite dish to pick up Husker games for us. You pretty much had to go to a friendly bar like that one to watch most games before we were in the B1G. Try getting a local PA cable or Dish company to put "Fox Sports Net" Big 12 coverage in their package! But once we joined the B1G everyone just stayed home. Sad
I will start checking around again and see if there are any.

And no problem about the dyslexia thing! A lot of people on here call me "Penny" as a shorthand so I think you are not the only one who seems to miss that it is "Pennsy".

I know what you mean about no connection to PSU. I have lived in PA now since 1994. And yet I feel zero connection to any of the teams out here, college or pro. I am still a boy from Lincoln at heart....

Maybe we can get together someday this season and watch a game. I have a good friend who is a huge PSU fan who can get tickets. But I am sure, given your status as a PSU employee, that you can too. So maybe we can all meet and go to the PSU-NU game this Fall in State College.

Pittston is close to me here. About half an hour. Lewisburg is further, of course. Are you a trooper? What made you a Husker fan?
We need to start planning a get together for the NU-PSU game this Fall. Any other Huskers living in PA on here?

Retired in Feb/2016 now a county detective for Lycoming County in Williamsport. Started liking Neb in 79-80 when Inwas a kid because of their running backs and program. Went to Neb for a game in 94 and 96 with a group of guys from West Pittston. Great time met Dr Tom and had our picture taken with him on the field Usually go to the red mill in Pittston to watch the Neb / PSU because the owner and I are close friends and watch the game together. It's a PSU bar.
