A few days after landing a commitment from one of the top high school receivers in the state of Utah, Timpview's Travis Van Leeuwen, the Utah State Aggies have received a pledge that will strengthen their running game.
Michael Smith a running back from Eastern Arizona Junior College in Thatcher, Ariz., has committed to Utah State, according to Jason Jewell of Scout.com.
Smith rushed for 1,002 yards and 11 touchdowns last season for the Gila Monsters, who play in the same conference as Utah's Snow College.
Smith, 5-foot-9 and 200 pounds, was a second-team all-Western States Football League selection in 2008.
He played at Sunnyside High in Tucson, Ariz., and will have three years to play two for Utah State.
It was Smith's first offer, but e was also hearing from Kansas, Arizona State and Utah.

Weber State is in the mix for one of the top prep football players in Nevada.
Defensive end Danny Mullarkey of Desert Vista High in Las Vegas has been offered a scholarship by Weber State and will make an official visit soon.
The 6-foot-2, 220-pound senior had an offer from Washington before that school's coaching staff changed.

Utah Valley University's golf team has signed Dane Christensen to a national letter of intent. Christensen attends Armory High in Armory, Miss. He was the state medalist in 2008 for Mississippi after shooting a 36-hole total of 139 at Riverbirch G.C.
Christensen is ranked No. 1 in his senior class and is the school's valedictorian. He was born in Provo and is the son of Dr. Vern Christensen.
