Pat Washington is expected to work for Randy Sanders for the second time.

FootballScoop.com is reporting that the former East Carolina running game coordinator/outside receivers will replace Tee Martin as UK's wide receiver coach. Martin left UK for USC.

Washington had been with East Carolina for a little over a month after coaching running backs at Southern Miss from 2009-11.

He coached wide outs at Tennessee from 1995-2005.

Tennessee won the national title in 1998 with Tee Martin as the starting quarterback.

Randy Sanders, a quarterback for Tennessee, was an assistant at his school from 1991-2005. That included being the offensive coordinator from 1999-2005.

Washington and Tee Martin are both from Mobile, Alabama. He played quarterback at Auburn and has also coaches at TCU, Baylor, and Mississippi State.

A UK official said they can't confirm a coaching hire until a week after the job has been posted.

Washington coached some big name receivers at Tennessee. They include Donte' Stallworth, Peerless Price, Marcus Nash, Joey Kent and Cedrick Wilson. The top four wide outs in UT history played for Washington. He helped produce 11 NFL draft picks while he was at UT.

Washington was the starting quarterback for Auburn during his last two years there in 1984-85. He was 17-8 for the Tigers as their starter.
