Meh...Hes a 3rd year player. Lets not make his bail money too low here. This isnt a T-Fr being trotted out there. He shouldnt be a deer in headlights thats for **** sure.Smith needs time to build and develop. Not fair to judge anything based off what happens in Bama game. Hopefully, he progresses as the season goes on. Unfortunately, I do not have faith in Patke (even though I hear he is knowledgeable) to develop our LB’s.
Guys like KSmith, Harvey, Cam Williams, SBrooks, Huff dont need to be shot anymore bail money. They need to take that "3rd year quantum leap" at this point of their careers. Time to show what you can do and remind people why they were all mid-upper level 4* recruits out of HS. (not picking on the defense but I cant think of any 3rd year offensive players worth mentioning. Jeremiah Payton came to mind but I think that dude is in his 4th year right? He might just need to move on at this point)
