Miami Central OL Maurice Smith flips, commits to Florida State
Florida State is officially on a recruiting roll heading into Wednesday's early signing period. And most importantly, the Seminoles are making major waves on their biggest area of need -- the offensive line.
Shortly after getting a commitment from junior college lineman Jay Williams, the Seminoles landed another commitment Monday from Miami Central standout Maurice Smith.
"Everything was perfect that way I clicked on the visit so I knew during the visit that I was going to commit there to Florida State. I felt very comfortable with all the coaches, players and I knew it was the right fit for me, "said Smith.
Smith had originally committed to Boston College but changed his mind after visiting FSU this past weekend. He developed a great bond with FSU assistant coaches Greg Frey, and Telly Lockette on the visit.
"I know Coach Frey is going to work me hard. But the connection was strong there and felt it was right place. Had a great time being around Dontae Lucas, and Jay Williams. We are going to get FSU back to where it belongs, and I believe in Coach Taggart. He's changing the program, "added Smith.
Smith also confirmed that FSU is bringing him in as a center.
