Nick Saban’s dance moves have paid off.
Three-star Louisiana CB Eddie Smith (6-foot, 180 pounds) committed to Alabama on National Signing Day.
Smith, from Slidell, La., committed to Alabama over Mississippi State and Tennessee. He’s ranked as the nation’s No. 42 overall CB and the state’s No. 15 overall prospect, according to 247Sports Composite Rankings. He also played WR and returned kicks in high school, and he’s a dynamic athlete.
He committed to Alabama at a ceremony Wednesday morning:
