You dont know what you're talking about. Martinez is an excellent DB coach. We were down to 1 DB all spring. Our DBs have been injured, but we'll see better play in our secondary going furtherI can see why DBs might not want to come to UT given all the soft zone they’ve played but this D seems great for front seven players. Very aggressive and fun
I had totally forgotten how little spring reps our secondary got. That’s a very good point about why our secondary struggled so much early.You dont know what you're talking about.

I’m not slagging the DBs or Martinez. I’m just trying to stress how appealing the defensive approach this year should be to front seven players. You make many good points but missed the pointYou dont know what you're talking about. Martinez is an excellent DB coach. We were down to 1 DB all spring.

He and Rodney Garner continue to click really well and they talk frequently throughout the week. We still have Alabama as the biggest competition, but in talking to people this week in the industry, people in Athens agree that Tennessee is the team to beat here.
A Look at Tennessee-Georgia Recruiting Battles
Elite DL Daevin Hobbs
Hobbs is arguably the top uncommitted prospect remaining in the 2023 class, and he is set to be in Athens this weekend on an official visit. It will be his third time seeing Tennessee in five weeks, and the latest intel suggests the Vols are one of the teams to beat in this recruitment. Alabama and Georgia are the other major contenders, and the Bulldogs have excelled at recruiting defensive linemen from the Carolinas under Kirby Smart and Trey Scott. This weekend's visit to Athens will be an important one for both teams since Tennessee will also have another opportunity to impress Hobbs on the field as he watched the Vols down Florida and Alabama inside of Neyland Stadium. He is currently slated to commit in late November.
