The 6-foot-3, 205-pound Martin has already signed with the Orange and will have one season of eligibility left to use in 2017, he said. He racked up 74 total tackles, including 4.5 for loss, 11 pass deflections, two forced fumbles and an interception in three seasons as a contributor for the Rockets. Martin sat out his junior year in 2015 with a torn ACL. "The process went pretty smoothly," Martin said. "Upon asking for my release from Toledo, I wanted to get my film out to as many schools as possible. I was familiar with Coach (Dino) Babers from him coaching in the MAC conference and (Bowling Green) being our rival school. "They saw my film and brought me up for a visit. I loved the environment and the love I received from the coaching staff as well as the academic department. It's a great school and they play some great teams, their schedule next year is hefty so it was pretty easy making my decision to play for them." [MEDIA=youtube]UKo-DudwcO8[/MEDIA] ...

Syracuse.com’s Stephen Bailey first reported the news. The 6-foot-3, 205-pounder will join the Orange as a graduate transfer and have one season of eligibility. In three seasons at Toledo, Martin tallied 74 tackles, 4.5 for loss, 11 pass deflections, two forced fumbles and an interception. He entered 2016, his senior year, listed as co-No. 1 at cornerback in the preseason depth chart. Martin will join Syracuse this summer after he graduates from Toledo in May. “I feel like I’ve got a lot of experience under my belt,” Martin said. “I can come in and be a Day 1 impact player.” After Martin got a release from Toledo, he sent his film to SU head coach Dino Baber’s coaching staff. Martin said he played against Babers’ Bowling Green teams, rivals with Toledo, and grew interested in playing for him. Martin visited the SU campus March 11-13 and said he liked the staff. Martin joins fellow graduate transfer Devin Butler, a former cornerback at Notre Dame. Syracuse spring practice begins Tuesday morning.
