Penguins add two more football transfers

The Youngstown State football team added two more transfers on Monday: Cincinnati wide receiver Lynell Payne and Syracuse kicker/punter Jake Smith.

Both players will have three years of eligibility remaining.

Payne, a New Jersey native, redshirted in 2008 and appeared in three games for the Bearcats last fall, catching one pass for eight yards.

Smith, a Philadelphia native, went 2-for-2 on extra points — both against Akron — and missed his only field goal attempt: a 50-yarder against Penn State.
