Tee Martin job title

[Captainzach1]

So Tee is gonna be co-oc and assistant head coach and WR's coach???

Tennessee Vols: Tee Martin's job responsibilities at UT revealed

 

[RollerVol]

one co, one assist, and one main job...maybe a little recruiting on the side...gonna be busy...

GO VOLS...RECRUIT LIKE HECK!

 

[UT's#1Fan]

lots of co's in there to be paid middle of the pack vs the rest of the staff...

 

[Dudleys87]

Apparently took a lot to get him here.

I’m assuming Chaney is Co-OC/QB

But wouldn't USC owe him a buyout? We don't have to pay him a lot for him to make a lot. I'm sure that was negotiated.

Doesn't he still receive the difference between his OC pay from USC and that figure directly from USC? Probably why he accepted less pay here.

 

[spyfish007]

I am sure that is part of the bait to help get him here. Will help him with his career.

$35K per year?

 

[Volnatic]

$35K per year?

Haha not THAT extreme....but (I have no idea how much he actually made and am doing no research) I'm sure he probably made closer to a mil per year as the OC at USC...so maybe looking at another $300k-$500k from USC directly on top of UT pay.

Good point. USC is a private institution, so we don't know what he made but yours and the other posters points a valid. Forgot about the USC buyout offset.

Titles are only important on resumes. Even then they are usually meaningless. More is based on actual accomplishments and recognition.

 

[Volsfaninva917]

UT list Chaney as OC with no CO title, it also makes zero sense to make Chaney the highest paid OC in the country only to give him the CO title

[k-town_king]

He will give some input on calls like Coley did for UGA last year. Chaney will make the final call.

Not surprising. This is a good setup.

Chaney knows he has full playcalling authority and time with the QB’s...unlike his UGA situation.

Tee was currently not working

 

[k-town_king]

Tee was currently not working

And had a ton of offers. Including a SEC OC job.

Worked for Butch. Why not.

So should we expect to see a pay raise in his near future when his buyout money stops? Of course assuming the offense performs well? No sarcasm here, just genuinely curious because I am not well versed in paying coaches and how those decisions are made. I am just thinking toward the future and wondering if we will have to pay him more and take from another coach/coordinator/assistant or if we will be losing him to a better paying job in a few years if he does well?

Actually, Tee is getting the remainder of his USC salary over the next two years. Which is how long his contract is here. So don't let that 450K fool you. He's making much more than that. But glad to have him back on the hill. Starting to feel like old times here.

From "Details of Martins contract" article:

"It’s also worth noting that Martin will be receiving buyout money from USC over the next two years, which is the length of his contract with Tennessee. USC owed him the remainder of his salary on his deal with them, and they will have to pay him over the next two seasons. "

what SEC offered and what do you call a ton ?

 

[HonestVol24]

Tee is on staff 100% to recruit. No matter what his title says

 

[Volfan2012]

450 k in Tennessee is the same as a million dollars in California. I don't think he will be financially impoverished even if he has been living paycheck to paycheck all these years.

 

[Nerwen Aldarion]

Sounds about what I thought, a couple of titles that sound good on paper but his primary focus will be recruiting and wide receivers.

Good deal got us.

 

[VFLCodyGBO]

Sorry if I missed it, but where does that leave David Johnson?

 

[Chilmonty]

Lotta hats for Tee to juggle! He will be like......
