The Owls seemed to have the nation's 135th outside linebacker tied up after his visit to Boca Raton on Jan. 15. Then within the week, a blizzard happened, and before FAU could react Syracuse had taken their commit.
The Florida Atlantic Owls were set to continue their recruiting success with the official visit of Rashad Smith, a three star outside linebacker/safety out of Homestead, FL, on January 15th.
Smith seemed content with his commitment to FAU, which he made after the Owls became the first team to offer him a scholarship on March 13, 2015.
