Tennessee's wide receivers coach Zach Azzanni is already rumored to possibly be on the move and now defensive backs coach Willie Martinez's name has come open in connection with Mark Richt's yet-to-be-assembled staff at Miami.

Martinez has been a member of Butch Jones' staff since his arrival to Knoxville in 2013, but he worked for Richt in Athens from 2001-2009 as either a secondary coach or defensive coordinator during that period.

Martinez is also a graduate of the University of Miami, so ties to his alma mater could also lure him south.
