The U going after Willie Martinez?

Star-divide

First, I wanna say I don't feel too strongly either way with Martinez.  I do like having a stable coaching staff but I was very disappointed with our D last year.

But there's your link.  Defensive coordinator for The U might be on the way out, and they look to go after none other than Willie Martinez if/when he leaves.

 

From that article :

 

"If Young leaves, UM is expected to have interest in Georgia defensive coordinator Willie Martinez, who was a defensive back for the Canes from 1981-84 and then served as a graduate assistant at the school. Martinez, a graduate of Hollywood Hills High, has been Georgia's secondary coach since 2001 and its defensive coordinator since 2005."

I don't really think Martinez would leave even if they offered.  No offense to The U, but why leave a stable program in what is regularly the toughest conference in the country for the same position in a program that is in a major rebuilding phase in what is a noticably weaker (yet underrated this past year IMO) conference?  Just don't see it happening.
