I know some of you know that Martin has been the OC at WT for the last several years. Fortunately they abandoned "up the middle most plays" by midseason this year, but are still a mediocre team. If we can somehow manage to get by SFU Hughes will have another winning season! wow.

Martin is NOT the "young" fresh-faced up-an-coming a program looking for those traits. He's what, eligible for Medicare?
Don Carthel is around 70 now but I am sure he would still do a great job.

Who cares how old he is, if he wins? He probably would be better than Hughes as head coach.

If WT had a league leading offense during Martin's term as OC, I might be inclined to give him a look. Has his offense stepped up and won games since the D became overwhelmed with injuries? No. Martin would be a retread. Status quo. Does WT need status quo or new, energetic, enthusiastic, and competent leadership? Someone to come in and jump start the program, much like Carthel did when he took over. A new winning attitude. A new upward direction. Does anyone on here actually think Martin is that guy?
Good luck finding someone who can do what Don did.

NO. I said he would be better than Hughes. I was also making the point that a good (but not great) record in the RMAC doesn't necessarily mean the coach is top tier.

Yep. If McB decides to replace HH, that hire will be critical for the future of WT athletics (IMO).

Taking the WT job:
1. I'd bet he'd get a very good pay raise,
2. Top 3 facilities in all of D2.
3. Fully-funded budget.
4. More money for assistant coaches.
5. Despite lack of playoffs since Carthel, much higher visibility for recruiting.
6. Good core of young talent at WT. Keep most of it and you aren't "starting over."
7. 7,000 attendance instead of 3,000. A "winner" puts 10,000 butts in the stands.
8. What's the downside? If he wins at WT, his profile is much higher than if he wins at ECU.

I am 100% sure he couldn't care less whether YOU are impressed or not. LMFAO.
Let's revisit in 3-4 seasons.
Been watching this guy since he was DL coach at TAMUK. How bout you?
Come on.....you are better than this.
I'm glad you've been watching him that long, you also said WT would go like 9-2 this year so I'm not sure what you're getting at.
Guy acted like a clown at Mesa, you don't have to like that but it has nothing to do with me being better than this or not. Perhaps you're biased towards him for some reason, I'm just calling it as many have seen it.
Valdosta is regretting that hire. This is a fact.
