( 3 Votes ) The Vindicator is reporting that Youngstown State has added two more Division 1 transfers to the 2010 roster. They are Cincinnati Wide Receiver Lynell Payne and Syracuse Punter/Kicker Jake Smith.

Lynell Payne is a Scout 3-star and Rivals 2-star wide receiver from Marlton, New Jersey. After being redshirted his freshman season, Payne played in just 1 game last season for the Big East Champions. Payne had previous offers to Clemson, Connecticut, Iowa, among others. Payne will have three years of eligibility for the Penguins.

Jake Smith is a sophomore punter/kicker from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In his only season with the Orange, Smith connected on 2 of 2 extra points against, while missing a 50 yard field goal against Penn State. In his senior year of high school, Smith averaged 41.8 yards per punt. Like Payne, Smith will have three years of eligibility with YSU. 

The Vindicator will have more on these two transfers in Tuesday's paper.

He can run well for a guy his size and has good speed. But he needs o work on his hands; he always catched with his body, hopefully that improved in Cincy.
