COLLEGE STATION, Texas -- Cornerback Maurice Smith (Fort Bend, Texas/Dulles) surprised even himself when he decided to commit to Alabama last month.
For that reason, he can’t say he’s surprised that college coaches weren’t done recruiting him when he made his pledge on June 8. But more than a month later, they’re still coming after him as hard as ever.
“Florida State is coming hard,” Smith said Friday at the Texas state 7-on-7 championships. “Texas and Texas A&M are still contacting me. LSU is doing the same thing. They’re not even caring about the commitment.”
