Tennessee - Willie Martinez to decide that 62 is a good age to retire from coaching.

Maybe so. Looking at Pass Defense Rankings for Tennessee with Martinez coaching the secondary (passing yards allowed per game).

2025 - 88th
2024 - 27th
2023 - 45th
2022 - 128th
2021 - 124th

In his best season here, we only finished 10 spots behind Kentucky's defense.

How about Opponent Completion % per game?

2025 - 123rd
2024 - 40th
2023 - 109th
2022 - 99th
2021 - 84th


How about Opponent Passing 1st downs per game?

2025 - 124th
2024 - 33rd
2023 - 52nd
2022 - 130th
2021 - 126th

I'm just not a fan of the approach we've had with our secondary over the last 5 seasons...and the numbers seem to back that up.

1) A signature win,
2) A coach who can develop quarterbacks.

I was going to say even a slight semblance of a passing game... I guess that's the same thing.
