Smith is scheduled to visit the Dub this weekend according to the starnews. He is a 6' 8" forward and defensive player of the MEAC. Had 90-some blocks last season. He played at ga st before transferring to Bethune cookman.

So we would be his third college?

So it seems.

Well, grad is nice that would make him court ready day 1. Also like the block numbers.....

We gave you a really good player and a decent off the bench player last year. Let us have him.

Sure. We'll take a home hoops game and an away football game.

Yay for the system where you can literally play all 4 years of your eligibility at 3 different schools, assuming you redshirted at the first transfer. In my eyes the system is broken to allow for this.

How Smith played against OOC teams last year:

TN-Martin - 38 min, 5-8 fg, 1-4 ft, 10 rbs, 1 blk, 11 pts.
Richmond - 27 min., 2-5 fg, 1-3 ft, 8 rebs, 1 blk, 5 pts.
WVU - 16 min, 0-0 fg, 0-0 ft, 2 rebs, 0 blk, 0 pts.
Sam Houston 32 min, 3-7 fg, 1-2 ft, 5 rebs, 6 blks, 7 pts.
UCF - 26 min, 3-4 fg, 0-0 ft, 10 rebs, 2 blks, 6 pts.

Not too impressed with his ability to add offense to UNCW. But, he may score more in a pressing, transition style of play.
