Alabama already has the No. 1 overall recruiting class in the country this year and is on pace to achieve the best-ever signing class, so it should be no surprise that Nick Saban’s crew added yet another 5-star player on Wednesday afternoon.

According to 247Sports, Smith is the No. 3 receiver in the class of 2017 and the No. 1 overall prospect out of the state of Louisiana.
The 6-foot-1, 180-pound wide out has put together quite the high school highlight reel, which can be seen below:
