Detroit News - Glenn star Keshawn Martin is no longer under the radar

There are a lot of feel-good stories surrounding National Signing Day, but Keshawn Martin's story might be the best.

Martin isn't your typical big-time football recruit.


The truth is, Martin, who couldn't afford to attend any camps last summer, wasn't recruited at all.


Martin's family doesn't have a lot of money, and he wasn't able to do all the things recruits do to get noticed.
