2020 RB E.J. Smith hasn’t been rated by the major scouting services yet, but that doesn’t mean the son of NFL and Florida legend Emmitt Smith isn’t drawing interest from big-name programs.
In fact, he already held three SEC offers — from Kentucky, Arkansas and Georgia — entering Tuesday night.
However, as you can see in the video below, shared by Emmitt Smith on Twitter, E.J. has received an offer from yet another SEC school — Florida:

Obviously, Smith is thrilled with this latest offer for his son, but it remains to be seen where the younger Smith actually decides to play.
Will he follow in his father’s footsteps or carve his own path? It’ll be interesting to find out.
