Yeah I guess that's true.

P.S. If your gonna bash Martinez then Derrick Ansley should in way even be considered by you. Ansley's DB's at UT were worst in schools history. Martinez coached the group up fairly well this year as we were much improved from when Ansley was there.


Good point. Ansley was awful at Kentucky this year as well.

Why do you UGA fans criticize W. Martinez so much? If you actually looks at the stats his defense's ranked no worse than 38th nationally while he was at UGA

Martinez was horrible. He was one of Richt's best friends, and he still got fired. He was a decent DB coach.

Ansley has only expressed interest. He hasn't been hired or anything yet. I also wouldn't be quick to judge him off his UT tenure, given the lack of athleticism y'all ha in the secondary. I wouldn't be a huge fan of that hire though

Nor should we be excited. IMO his secondaries were successful mainly based off of pass rush which under BVG we were excellent at. Then his stints at OU and AU hardly showed any improvement. At all.

UT can keep him and jancek

Because he turned a Porsche in to a Pinto. He was handed a great D and turned it to crap.
