Washington State, in search of receivers to fill out their 2017 recruiting class haul, added Davontavean Martin following his official visit to the Palouse this weekend.
Martin, listed at 6-foot-4, 180-pounds, hails from Houma, Louisiana, and picked WSU over several offers including East Carolina, Southern Miss, Virginia, Wake Forest and Toledo, whom he was previously committed to play basketball and football.

As a senior, Martin did a little bit of everything for Ellender Memorial High School, lining up at quarterback, receiver and defensive back, hauling in 45 receptions for 751 yards and eight touchdowns throw the air and adding another 493 hashes and five scores on the ground.
Martin is the third wide receiver to commit to Mike Leach and the Cougs in the 2017 recruiting class, joining Anthony White Jr. and Easop Winston, who is already on campus. In total, WSU now has 22 prospect currently committed or already signed in the current class. They’ll likely take one additional receiver in this class.
