ESPN.com Recruiting lists Smith as a 3-star recruit and ranks him as the 6th best HS player in Virginia. They have this to say about him ...
Smith is the kind of kid who has no identity crisis. He's a business man in the lane and given his obvious size, he's a problem.DMVelite ranks him as the 13th best player in the DC area.
Rivals.com has some video on Smith (as well as the gaudy list of offers that Smith was sporting).
The Washington Post had a nice article featuring Quadree back in January. There were two great quotes to highlight ...
“He’s relentless out there,” Derrickson said. “I know I have to try to match his intensity or else he’s going to kick my butt.”
“He’s got almost a point-guard awareness where he’s able to identify things and always knows what’s going on around him,” Farello said. “Out of huddles, you might see him telling a teammate what to pay attention to or what scheme might work. Q’s one of the better leaders I’ve coached in that he’s such a positive influence on his teammates.”
I will admit that I don't have the best in videos to offer right now, but I will seek out better ones in the near future. For now, I'll post these ...
This is huge pick up for UNCG. The Spartans have had trouble getting skilled big men to come to Greensboro for as long as I can remember. UNCG has always had to turn to undersized guys for the 4 and 5 positons. It's refreshing to see our coaching staff aggressively go after so many skilled front court players and get them to commit to UNCG. I can't wait to see another one in uniform next season.
Welcome to the Spartans, Quadree !!!

Finally a 3 star player! It's about time.
While I pay very little attention to stars b/c I don't trust most recruiting services ... this guy is a big time pick up.
I think. UNCG is going to have that break out season. I like the background and chemistry of the team. I believe Coach Miller and staff has completed the trifector in the third year. This team has great character and they will surprise many, I'm confident that they are going to dress the floor every night and be every opponents headache. They are solid. Watch what happens next. Peace
