Mississippi State has enjoyed success with transfer offensive linemen this offseason and on Tuesday, the Bulldogs added another veteran to the trenches and the 2024 roster.

Former LSU transfer offensive guard Marlon Martinez announced his intentions to transfer to Mississippi State. The Fort Lauderdale, Fla., native officially visited Mississippi State on Sunday and he is the third transfer offensive lineman to commit to the Bulldogs this month.

The 6-foot-5 and 330-pound Martinez joins North Texas transfer center Ethan Miner and Memphis transfer left tackle Makylan Pounders, who both committed to State earlier in December.
