Former Tennessee Vols’ National Champion quarterback Tee Martin is headed back to Rocky Top. Per ESPN Staff Writer Chris Low, sources told ESPN that Martin has reached an agreement with coach Jeremy Pruitt to join the offensive coaching staff, but his title and contract details are still being determined.
Martin has spent the past three seasons as Offensive Coordinator for Southern Cal, and had been on staff there since 2012. During his time as the Trojans’ OC, Martin oversaw an offense that helped win the 2016 Rose Bowl, and the 2017 Pac-12 Championship. Plus, averaged around 480 yards of total offense in both of those seasons.
He has been coaching at the FBS level as an assistant since 2009, where he was the QBs Coach at New Mexico, and also coached at Kentucky for two seasons before joining Southern Cal’s staff.
