Pinkerton Academy DE Cade Smith Enters Transfer Portal Amid Coaching Change
Pinkerton Academy senior defensive end Cade Smith has entered the transfer portal, citing his decision to explore other options after the Astros hired a new coaching staff this offseason. Smith's departure would be a significant blow to the program, which is already facing a scarcity of defensive linemen in the upcoming season. The 6-foot-4, 225-pound prospect is one of the top recruits in the Granite State and has garnered interest from programs in New Jersey and Massachusetts. The Astros will need to fill the void left by Smith's potential departure, which could impact their chances in the Division I playoffs. Schools in the Northeast are reportedly recruiting Smith, who is expected to make a decision in the coming weeks.
