Kevin Smith

Hello, Lions fans from a Georgia based UCF fan.  Believe me when I say, you got the better back when you picked Kevin Smith over Tashard Choice.  I am a Tech grad and follow both teams (20 year UCF season ticket holder) and there is NO comparison.  It is not a stretch to say you got the steal of the draft.  This kid is one great guy who ran for just under 2,600 yards and 30 TD's counting the one receiving.  He can catch, block and has great feet.  He is not exactly Barry Sanders but you will be reminded of those days.  He is powerful, faster than the so-called experts think and has great durability.  He had but one injury in college that kept him out of four games his sophmore season.  He hold the NCAA record for carries and his teammates adore him.  Congrats to the Powder Blue!

Thanks for the post

I’m liking Smith more and more as I research him. I think he’ll be a great player.
