Myrtle Beach DE Matt Smith (6-1 245) led the state with 19 sacks last season, and he's got a handful of mid major offers at this point according to his coach Scott Earley.

Smith has offers from Army, Navy, Coastal Carolina, Furman, Wofford, The Citadel, Charleston Southern and Presbyterian. Plus, Georgia, Vanderbilt and NC State are showing interest.

And USC might get in the mix. Smith is supposed to go to Georgia for a camp Friday but might go to USC instead. Smith has visited Vanderbilt and NC State.

"He's a David Pollack type of player," Earley said in comparing Smith to the former Georgia All American. "His motor runs all the time."
