Wait did I miss when Napier was OC at Bama because based on that qoute he is taking credit for Ridley having 1K yards as a freshman. I know he was the WR coach but not sure I would give him much credit for those 89 receptions and 1K yards. It would seem the OC called plays that Ridley then executed. I'm sure in Napier's mind that was all his WR teaching of an incoming freshman because clearly Ridley knew nothing of playing WR before the great Napier got hold of him after Mario recruited Ridley to Bama. Also that is going to be a lot of YAC if Smith is going to get 1K in Napier's offenses. The Mertz special seems to be the 5 or so yard pass followed by hope the WR can get more.
Plus if what blue chip Ridley did at Bama impresses Smith he should be elated with what Dawson got out of Tune and the receiers at Houston the last couple of years.
