After running for 3,928 yards and 36 touchdowns in three years in Gainesville, NFL Hall of Fame RB Emmitt Smith is a legendary Florida Gator.
However, his daughter, Rheagen, decided to follow her own path when it comes to her soccer career.
Though she’ll play in the SEC like her dad, Rheagen signed with Texas A&M on Monday, prompting her dad to don an Aggies shirt:

Though Gator fans may not like seeing the former Florida star in a Texas A&M shirt, Rheagen likely spent most of her childhood alongside her dad while he played for the Dallas Cowboys, amassing an NFL-record 18,355 career rushing yards.
Here’s hoping she has a legendary career like her father’s.
