I'm amazed that so many here see this as a terrible hire. It's pretty obvious to me Richt felt the heat from above and had to do something, ala Jackie Wayne. Another subpar season next yr or two and I see another Tuberville scenario Jawja.

a favor by interviewing Martinez and making him look like he's in the running...and then Dan hires him. Dan can then say that he was considered for the DC at Florida so he must have been a viable candidate.

We will get Fla,G.,and FSU's leftovers. Richt hired Martinez for a reason in the first place. There are very few miracle workers. Tunuta, Andrews, Dunn, Et al, didn't forget how to coach. Hell, the year after Jackie fires Bill Clay, he has a top 20 D at his new job.
It not like Martinez has never done anything.

Now somebody like Croom or Ron Cooper, they had never done anything.
