<p>[player_tooltip player_id='331441' first='Terrence' last='Smith'] of West Aurora is one of the top prospects remaining on the board in the 2025 class. He is a high level wide receiver that is absolutely electric. We wrote on him recently</p>

<p><em>Smith is a 6'4" wide receiver that is also a top 20 hoops prospect in the state. He has been picking up a lot of momentum on the football side with the way he has been playing. First thing that stands out is his tremendous size at 6'4" with elite athleticism and ball skills. High points catches in traffic whether on the edge or going over the middle. Very good hands snatching the pigskin out of the air on the regular. Long strider that seems to glide down the field. Tracks the ball well in the air and has good body control during the catch. Can do some work on short routes too catching a bubble screen for a 60 yard TD. Should develop into an elite redzone threat as was shown on tape where he was a TD machine!</em></p>
