BowlBoundBulls Posted November 26, 2007 Group: Member Topic Count: 0 Content Count: 254 Reputation: 2 Days Won: 0 Joined: 02/02/2006 Share Posted November 26, 2007 Smith has had an incredible season(except one game). My question is do you think he will go pro? He has 2,164 rushing yards and 25 TDs on 376 carries. If I were to advise him, I would tell him to go pro because the UCF coaching staff is going to ruin him if they don't watch it. There have been a number of games where Smith has carried the ball more than 40 times in a game and thats just too much for a college running back. I would think he is a late first or early 2nd rounder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realize they are in CUSA Championship Game, but that doesn't make them good . Any team that loses to us by 52 can't be very good. Even Syracuse only lost by 31. He should turn pro, especially if O'Liar jumps ship on Mickey Mouse U. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Things like that always work out. : : : : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's over 2000 yards, and in my opinion has nothing left to prove on a college level. If he comes back, what could he do that would be better than this year? What would he do to raise his stock more than it is now?The other issue is the pure number of carries. I think Jamal Anderson holds the NFL record for carries in a season and that is around 420 carries. Smith will have more than that after the Title game and the Bowl game, with 2 fewer games. If I were his adviser I would tell him that if he is going to take that type of beating then get paid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He really can't have much better of a year. What else could he develop? The knock on him will be that UCF hasn't faced a lot of decent defenses this year. Did he have a good game against Texas? I know he didn't get many chances in Tampa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
