The Oklahoman's Super 30: Midwest City's Makale Smith taking athletic talent, humble attitude to Oklahoma State

MIDWEST CITY — Makale Smith jogged across the Midwest City football practice field, his long hair bouncing on the back of his shoulder pads.

On his hands he wore gloves with various neon colors in vibrant patterns.

Loud accessories for a loud personality, perhaps?

“These aren’t mine,” Smith said with a soft voice and sheepish grin. “I forgot mine and had to borrow these.”

If you’re looking for excitement from Smith to match the vibrancy of his borrowed gloves, you’ll have to generate it yourself. Watching Smith run usually does the trick.

Smith, a super-speedy receiver/defensive back for the Bombers, is rated No.
