APOPKA, Fla. -- Martez Ivey is the top-rated offensive lineman in the ESPN 300 and has scholarship offers from just about every school in the Southeast.

Apopka High School coach Rick Darlington said his star offensive tackle, the No. 3 overall prospect in the nation, is arguably the best player he’ has coached.

"As a person, he cares about other people, he’s a very good leader and he plays for his teammates," Darlington said. "He cares about them. He’s the same guy every day. He doesn’t have bad days. I’ve never seen him in a bad mood. He’s a consistent, low-key person and a phenomenal leader.”

Ivey’s humble attitude has made him a leader and a captain for Apopka, but it’s his presence on the field that has turned him into an All-American.

"As a player, he’s off-the-charts tenacious,” Darlington said. "He wants to finish blocks. He gets on people and stays on them and he’s very athletic. You see how he runs. To run that well at that size -- he’s 270 and he’ll play in the SEC at 330. He’s got arms that go across the room. He’ll be a great great player. He’s very tenacious, flexible and he’s a smart player.”

As Ivey’s senior season winds down and signing day quickly approaches, the 6-foot-6 athlete took time out of his day to answer some questions about his recruitment.
