From the Iowa site...more on the visit. Iowa was his first offer, followed by Wisconsin and West Virginia. Also hearing from OSU who should let him know if they will offer in the next week.

Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz and offensive coordinator were reportedly in Cleveland for an in-home visit with Glenville Academy's Jermil Martin and snagged a verbal commitment from the 6-1, 230-pounder who also had scholarship offers from Wisconsin and West Virginia, HawkeyeReport.com reported. Martin played fullback and defensive end for Glenville and said he will likely start his Iowa career on defense.

"We really didn't talk about it that much," Martin told HawkeyeReport.com. "They just said I'm a football player and that's what they need in their program. They think I'm a good person to come in and help the team and that's what I want to do."

Welcome to Buckeye Nation Jermil!

I've heard that he is projected probably as a fullback at OSU. Anyone know how he compares with Aram Olson the fullback from South Carolina I believe we got a year or 2 ago? Are they the same type of fullback or is Jermil project at being used more in the passing game? Thanks in advance for the info.
