Syracuse, N.Y. -- Syracuse football officially hired Kirk Martin to coach quarterbacks on Friday, SU Athletics told Syracuse.com.
Martin, a longtime Texas high school coach, is inlaws with SU head coach Dino Babers as Babers' daughter, Jazzmin, married Martin's son, Koda, in July.
"First and foremost, Coach Martin is a family man," Babers said in a statement."His values align with what we teach our players every day about being better fathers, better sons, and better husbands. The type of person he is and his success training elite-level players makes him an excellent fit for our program.
