Jack Martin announced his plans to transfer from Troy University to the University of Alabama this upcoming season Saturday, giving the Crimson Tide another special teams weapon.
Alabama fared pretty well punting the football last season with Sam Johnson and Charlie Scott splitting time as the starting punter for the Crimson Tide. Scott led both punters with 22 punts for an average of 39.2 yards. He had a long of 51.
Scott is no longer with the team after graduating. The Tide returns Sam Johnson and Ty Perine to go along with their newest transfer.
Martin handled the punting duties for the Troy Trojans last season.
