Louisville football: Could Cards reel in next Mekhi Becton?

If you’re a Louisville football fan, the name Kolby Smith probably strikes up great memories. The former star running back turned suave position coach was one of the bright spots in the Bobby Petrino era.

Now, a new “Colby” could be entering the fold for the Cards in the form of 2021 offensive tackle Colby Smith.

The 6’7,” 295-pound left tackle from Reidsville, North Carolina has turned heads not only because of his size but excellent agility in the trenches.

Smith is ranked as high as the No. 138 player nationally and 19th-overall offensive tackle in the 2021 class, and he is apparently extremely high on the Cards.
