Kearney's Cade Smith Commits to Arkansas Razorbacks
Kearney Bearcats safety Cade Smith has committed to the University of Arkansas, joining the Razorbacks' Class of 2025. Smith, a 6-foot-1, 185-pound athlete, will bring his skills to a defense that employs a 3-4 scheme, a perfect fit for his versatility. The Razorbacks' secondary is expected to be a strength in the upcoming season, and Smith's addition will bolster the unit's depth chart. Arkansas' academic program, which offers a range of engineering and business programs, aligns with Smith's academic goals. Smith previously held offers from several Big 12 and Group of Five programs but ultimately chose the Razorbacks over Nebraska, where he had previously decommitted. Smith's commitment marks a significant addition to the Razorbacks' secondary, and he is expected to make an immediate impact in the program.
