WKU Hilltoppers: Tops Keep Dalvin Smith In State With Verbal Commitment
Glasgow High School’s Dalvin Smith is staying in the Bluegrass as he has given his verbal commitment to Mike Sanford and WKU.

Smith is listed as 6'3" and 225 pounds, and 247Sports didn’t list a 1.) star ranking or 2.) other interested schools. I find it hard to believe that Smith is less than a three-star and that WKU was the only interested party in him.
My takeaways from this Hudl tape — Smith is big. He looks like a D1 athlete out there and what he doesn’t necessarily have in speed he more than makes up for in physicality, as he’s a haul to bring down.
He lists himself as a receiver and a cornerback, but I couldn’t find any defensive highlights, so I’m assuming Sanford and Co. want him on the offensive side of the ball.
Hopefully this is one of those cases where the Tops nabbed a diamond in the rough. The more I recall his abilities in his high school highlights, the more I’m excited to see how he translates into the collegiate game.
