BG$--Smith stands out in his class

Corey has been told to expect early offers from tOSU, PSU, UNC, and possibly UCLA. He is Doran Grant's cousin and says tOSU would be among his early favorites.

Who ISN'T Doran Grant's cousin these days? That's the 2nd or 3rd guy I've heard of that is a relative of Doran's.

Wideouts stand out at State College Nike Football Training Camp - ESPN

Corey Smith (Akron, Ohio/Butchel) was dominant at times. He was extremely difficult for any defensive back to cover, showed excellent speed, hands, body control and overall playmaking ability. Depending on what he looks like in pads at game speed, Smith could potentially be one of the better receiver prospects in the Midwest for the next recruiting cycle.

Maybe he is Italian? My best friend married into an Italian family and wherever he looks he finds cousins.

Carolina doesn't recruit like thier academic reputation would make you think... they've signed multiple guys from my conference that have barely made it past admissions.
