Tahj Smith gives Morgan State a dual-threat QB with starting experience and late-game poise
Smith is a 6-foot-2, 195-pound senior quarterback who has steadily grown into Morgan State’s offense, with career production of 1,134 passing yards, 6 passing TDs, 159 rushing yards, and 3 total rushing scores across 2023–2024. He’s not a flashy stat-padding spread quarterback; his value is in manageable, winning football — he has shown he can start, finish, and execute in pressure spots, including a 2024 overtime win and a 2023 first-start performance with 131 passing yards and 66 rushing yards. The fit is best for teams wanting a composed dual-threat leader rather than a pure cannon-armed passer.[1][8][14][18]
