Maryland football lands 310-pound D-lineman from transfer portal

Maryland gained another commitment from the transfer portal on Saturday night when the Terrapins landed Sedrick Smith, a defensive lineman from Alabama A&M.
Smith went public with his commitment after being on campus and seeing College Park. He picked up offers from Georgia, Georgia Tech, and Purdue, but chose to play for Mike Locksley and the Terps. Smith will have three years of eligibility remaining.
