There have been a few reports over the past couple of months that Miami commit Mike Smith was still open to listening to other schools. The hybrid pass rushing prospect says his commitment is strong.
“I am solid to Miami and will be visiting next Friday. I’m looking forward to sitting down with the defensive coordinator and talking about how they will use him. I think they’ll stand me up as a linebacker,” said Smith.
There was a rumor floating around that Smith had suffered a severe knee injury late in his season, but he says it was not too serious.
“It was a sprain, it’s alright and getting better. I will be fine for Miami.”
Smith is excited about the prospects of this recruiting class.
“The talent in this class is tremendous. The pass rush is going to be crazy. A lot of guys can do different things so I hope they can find a good fit for us to get to the quarterback.”
Miami’s rival won the title on Monday night and that caught Smith’s attention.
“It really motivates me watching Florida State win a national title as an ACC opponent because I know we are right there.”
Last week’s speculation surrounding Al Golden was something that Smith was paying attention to as well.
“I didn’t know if he was going to leave or stay because ESPN made it seem like he was going to leave so I wasn’t sure. It’s a good thing for the program that he is back.”
