Penn State football got an important commitment on Friday evening when four-star athlete Quinton Martin chose to join the Nittany Lions' Class of 2024. Martin is the 41st overall player in the Industry Rankings, the third-ranked athlete in the country, and the top player in Pennsylvania.  While many of you reading this article may already know that well-known information, it needs to be clarified what Martin is as a football player. The 6-1.5, 185-pound Pittsburgh native has many great qualities that make him a top athlete in the class. But T-Frank's film room is designed to let fans know what a player is good at and where the hype meets reality. The issue with Martin is that he does so many things. Because of that and his unique frame, where he'll play at Penn State is unclear.  So we'll take a unique approach to Martin's film room and try to determine what position he's best suited to going forward. While we'll focus on his play at running back, we'll fold in all of his talents to make that judgment.
