Just throwing this out there… well, because I can:
Willie Martinz to Illinios as DC? I hear it may happen. Stay tuned.—

Wait, who’s HC up there now?
Toledo’s Tim Bend It Like Beckham who got a recommendation from Big Game Bob about Willie’s expertise as a bend but don’t break tactician
Well said sir.
What about Willie’s expertise as a break-but-don’t-bend tactician?
Big Game Bob, in an effort to move product, leaves that part out.
A lot of buzz around Kansas too.

Those poor people don’t know what they’re saying…
That would really be a ku (hehe) for Weis!
Folks give Willie a break-it didn’t work out with us-he is a man looking for a job-nothing positive comes from kicking a man while he is down-we got our new guy-let it go
Let it go like a streaking Alabama wideout running a skinny post in the blackout game?
Seriously tho, all the best to Willie.
I’m actually just glad to see Dawg fans view Willie’s tenure in Athens with humor now. I’d don’t think a little good-natured ribbing is that bad. At least the memories aren’t inducing obscenity-laced tirades like they used to.
Note that some of us made no humorous comments.
Fwiw i thought willie was actually a good secondary coach until he got promoted to DC. guys like tim jennings and greg blue certainly seemed to benefit from the tutelage of BVG era Willie. Although watching OU’s secondary this year is making me reconsider….
+1.
Just saw that Boise States OC is moving to FL in same position.
That…. that’s probably not a good thing.
Don’t worry, we’ve got Mike Bobo. He went to UGa, and is a really good position coach. Florida will have nothing on us. Not like their new OC knows anything about adapting scheme to the players on a roster, or calling plays to the strength of his team.
Carlton Thomas up the middle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2012, the year of the Dawg.
That is not funny.
CWM would probably be more successful in the Big 10 due to less passing rather than the Big 12. The weird thing is that he was a secondary coach but as a DC, his secondary typically played terrible.
So, he’s half a coach?
I told you people two years ago that this program would be cursed for firing Coach Willie and you laughed at me…..
Well, who’s laughing now! The curse of the Martino is here, deal with it!
Can’t hurt. It’ll take somebody out of the mix. Might help us a poll place or two some week in the future.
Sorry, I missed it. Did Martinez get fired (let go) from OU or is he just up for other jobs (step down to Illinois)?
He’d be moving from DB coach to DC.
