Former FAU standout Alijah Martin signs with Florida over Alabama, Arkansas, Michigan and others
GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Florida Atlantic standout Alijah Martin, who helped propel the Owls to the Final Four in 2023, is moving about 300 miles north to play at Florida. The 6-foot-2 guard formally signed with the Gators on Monday and is expected to become an immediate starter for coach Todd Golden in Gainesville. He will replace Zyon Pullin, a first team, all-Southeastern Conference point guard who averaged 15.5 points, 4.9 assists and 3.9 rebounds after transferring from UC Riverside. Martin, a graduate transfer, has one year of eligibility remaining. He chose Florida over Alabama, Arkansas, Michigan, Mississippi and USC. “He’s been incredibly consistent as both a scorer and defender and will add even more explosiveness to our group,” Golden said. “He will step onto our campus as a college graduate and will provide experience and leadership for the program.”

That hasn’t been the case as May had gotten six commitments (five from the transfer portal) from Friday to Monday, with zero coming from Boca Raton.

Johnell Davis, Vlad Goldin, Alijah Martin, Nick Boyd, Isaiah Gaines, Giancarlo Rosado, and Brennen Lorient leave a more than significant void that Jakus will be looking to fill in the transfer portal and with high school signees.
