Here’s some interesting numbers on University of Memphis quarterback Martin Hankins.
In his final six game of the regular season, Hankins threw for 2,107 yards and 17 touchdowns. Excluding Hankins, only 10 quarterbacks in the program’s history have passed for more yards IN THEIR CAREERS. Again, excluding Hankins, only seven quarterbacks have thrown more touchdowns IN THEIR CAREERS.
With one game left in his two-year career (the Dec. 21 matchup in the New Orleans Bowl against Florida Atlantic), Hankins ranks second on the U of M’s passing charts in yards (5,489) and touchdowns (35). In four seasons, Danny Wimprine amassed 10,215 yards passing and tossed 81 TDs.
Hankins also will finish his career as the second-most accurate passer in the program’s history to Steve Matthews.

Martin still has a shot at passing Matthews as the most accurate passer.
If he completes 30 of 40 passes, he will be in close to a tie. If he has 60 attempts again, then he will need 42 or more completions. Against FAU’s defense inside the dome that isn’t out of the question.
