Martell never lost a game as a starter at Bishop Gorman. Yes, he played on a stacked team but they had an impressive OOS schedule. Williams played on teams that went 5-5 and 4-7 his senior and junior seasons. In his defense, he may have played with some mediocre talent around him, but they went 4-7 last year so losing him did not make much of a difference. Martell played very well this year in limited snaps. Williams all but mailed it in after Savannah State. Clean slate for Williams so hopefully he is taking this seriously. Perry gets a clean slate, too.
BTW, to my first point, you bring in proven winners and then run an offense they can execute. Look at Brock Berlin. He was terrific in high school coming from a dominant national program. Great stats in mop up at Florida. Coker and Chud ruined the kid his junior year. He looked lost in the first half against Florida. We run hurry up and shot gun in 3rd quarter, which is what he ran at Evangel Christian, and the kid looked like an All-American. We should have stayed in those formations for the remainder of his career. Werner got something out of him his senior year.
Martell gives you dynamic play. Something neither Perry nor Williams bring to the table. Enos is pretty clear he will adjust to the talent he has. That in its own right is refreshing.
