So when Martin decided to reshuffle his staff, moving Michael Porter Sr. from the third full-time assistant to Director of Player Development, he didn’t do a search. He didn’t look outside the building. He promoted his best friend that he’s known for more than 40 years.

“You’re looking at loyalty,” Martin said. “A guy that’s qualified for a job. You’ve got to be a good human being. Character’s intact. If you had a child, son or daughter, and you would want their schoolteacher or their coach to be, then he would be that. Good character person. He’s coached on both sides, boys and girls. Accountable. He’s a truth teller when it comes to young men. Whether you like it or not, it’s the truth.”

“When I got to Tennessee, we brought him in slowly,” Martin said. “Though we’re family, you still have to earn it. It’s not like, okay, I bring you on. No, you’ve got to earn it. You have to be accountable to do your job. If you’re on staff, you’re one of the other guys. It’s all work.”
