Social media reactions to Michigan hiring Wink Martindale as DC

The Michigan Wolverines are hiring Don ‘Wink’ Martindale as their next defensive coordinator.

Here are reactions on social media to the news.

Michigan’s past two defensive coordinators, Minter and Mike Macdonald, ran a version of Wink Martindale’s defense, with similar concepts and terminology. Thus, the adjustment for the players might not be quite as dramatic as if another NFL coach took over. https://t.co/BD6uQxFtWI

Don ‘Wink’ Martindale’s defense needs a good “centerpiece” at defensive tackle.
