Oregon Ducks expected to hire Colorado’s Demetrice Martin as defensive backs coach

Demetrice Martin is well-known as a top recruiter on the west coast, having spent time at CU, Washington, UCLA, USC, and Arizona.

It’s been an eventful day for the Oregon Ducks when it comes to coaching hires, with Dan Lanning now expected to hire former Colorado Buffaloes coach Demetrice Martin as the new defensive backs coach, according to Bruce Feldman.

Martin has extensive knowledge of how things work in the Pac-12, having worked at Colorado, Washington, UCLA, USC, and Arizona. On top of his experience both as a player and coach of defensive backs, Martin is regarded as one of the top recruiters on the west coast, which fits along the lines of almost every hire that Lanning and the Ducks have made over the past couple of weeks.

This particular bit of recruiting news has some interesting aspects, follow with me for a minute. On Wednesday, it was announced that Michigan State Football has offered 2023 recruiting prospect Cole Martin, a currently unranked multi-position athlete out of Hamilton High School in Chandler, Arizona. Martin is the son of Demetrice Martin, who was another multi-positional standout who played for the Spartans back in the 1990s.

Interestingly enough, Demetrice Martin just joined the staff at Colorado, joining Mel Tucker’s head coaching replacement with the Buffaloes, Karl Dorrell, as the cornerbacks coach. The Buffaloes are also recruiting Martin so this is an interesting recruiting battle to monitor, as the young prospect could have to choose between playing under his dad’s tutelage or joining his dad’s alma mater.
