The prospect
Background
A few minutes of tape shows just how explosive Smith is on offense, but Alabama is recruiting the 2021 prospect to play somewhere in the secondary. It seems like the Crimson Tide coaches don't know exactly where Smith fits at this point.
In a normal summer, getting Smith to attend a camp on campus would have helped with that, but for now he's treated like a general defensive back. There's a couple of Alabama targets in that group this time around.
Kaine Williams is the Crimson Tide's only defensive back commitment to date, but his versatility could make him ideally suited for more of a linebacker role if he adds some weight.
