Notes: He is very athletic and knows how to use his size to gain position and shield the defender from the ball. He has a very good combination of height and long arms to attack the ball downfield. He is a tough player that can be used all over the field and will make the clutch catch over the middle and in traffic.

NDNation Notes: Chris Martin is the type of player the Irish have to land to contend for a National Title. Martin is a very athletic and talented rush end who dominated at USC's camp (see video below.) He's a Manti Teo level recruit who will make an immediate impact for the Irish. Will be one of ND's top 3 recruits, if not the top recruit, for 2010. Martin is likely transferring to the Hun School for his senior year.
