Corey Raymond out at UF. Will Heupel go after him?

BigOrangeTrain · Nov 27, 2023

Great recruiter and decent CB coach. Would be an upgrade. Think Heupel calls him?

SGMVols · Nov 27, 2023

Not sure why we’d want Florida rejects.

The Original Fade · Nov 27, 2023

If he’s great why did they cut him loose?

Will Martinez is UT’s CB coach. There is no job opening. Plus, CJH has never coached with this fellow. Seems like he only hires guys he knows really well.

He’s the DB coach for about 45 days unless his contract is rewritten. It wasn’t renewed.

Because a lot of great successful coaches have been fired in their past.
Sometimes, coaches just don’t fit the mold of where they were.

check to see if they have a relationship from the past or he has one with Banks. that is key.. I looked. No previous ties to Banks or Heupel..

Let’s hope it stays that way too. I’ll be fine if it expires. Im 100% over the Martinez experiment. Sick of his retread failure of a coaching job everywhere he goes. His recruiting doesn’t do us any good if he can’t coach the talent.

That reject was the best DB coach in the game. And a huge recruiter. Now he’s 54 with a ton of ties to LA high schools and still probably one of the top 10 DB coaches in the game. Does that sound like it might be an upgrade over what we currently have?

Heupel had zero relationship with Mack and Burns. Besides Golesh they’ve been two of the better coaches on staff. If Heupel limits his staff to only guys he’s worked with, he’ll be unemployed in 3 years.

He might be a coaching upgrade over CWM.

If you can't beat Florida in football, go ahead and possibly hire their fired coaches to get an advantage on Napier.

So let me get this straight. The only coaches Heupel will ever hire are guys he has worked with? Is that what you are saying?

We took UCF rejects. Also he is a better recruiter than Willie.

Who on staff is a UCF reject?

no of course not. But those are typically who coaches check with out of the gate. More than likely, Banks will have a lot of input as to who replaces Martinez. A lot.

They made an offer to Martinez (fingers crossed)!

VaBornVol · Nov 28, 2023

I keep seeing people say Martinez is kept on staff because he is a good recruiter. I also see people say Banks is struggling because of lack of talent.

Those two things don’t add up…

IndianaVol · Nov 28, 2023

I, like others, question why Raymond was cut loose at UF...is there a flag there?
Did he just not fit into the 'system'?
Is it just good ol' Billy trickling down his ineptitude to the his coaching staff?

If I'm Heupel and Banks and are looking to replace Martinez or move pieces around, then I look at the guy, but would need answers to questions too.

He wasn't going to fire his buddy the DC so he offered an escape goat. Time will tell if it's enough
