Martin.- as a yellowjacket... the 6'0" point guard scored- more than 1,000 points... and - head coach charlie pavlus...- considers him to be the best- ball-handler... he's ever had.- in the midst of these un-certai- times... brunt says the right - choice and the only choice, for- his future... are one in the- same.

I mean like guess i'm - special, and i just want to do- the best i can do at the colleg- and hopefully go up - into like a di or something lik- that."

"the petal game was unbelievable.

He- made the first seven 3's.

He wa- 7-7 to start that game.

He had- two dandy - dozens chasing him.

His last- performance was his best- - - - performance, and we came up one- bucket short.

I hate that the - rest of the state didn't get a- chance to see - him at the coliseum, because he- is special and unique.

And not- one time in two years - did he ever do anything but say- yes sir, no sir.

Even in the- moments when i'm in - his face challenging him, - pushing him, he never looked- - - - away.

He never looked at you- sideways.

I haven't had many- players do that."
