Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports is reporting USC Trojans forward Malik Martin is transferring from USC to USF.
USC transfer Malik Martin has committed to South Florida, sources told @CBSSports. Two years of eligibility remaining.

Under normal circumstances Martin would have to sit out the 2016-17 season, but still have two years of eligibility remaining. It isn't known if USF intends to apply for any type of hardship waiver where he would be available immediately.
@StampedeSBN did not play a lot, only about six minutes a game. However, he brings energy off the bench.

Martin averaged 6.6 minutes, 1.8 points, and 1.5 rebounds per game last season in 27 appearances. Those numbers were significantly down from his 2014-15 freshman season where he averaged 17.9 minutes, 5.2 points and 3.6 rebounds per contest.
