Smith looking at all the different aspects of what he can gain from attending any one given school. A big factor, what’s flat out proven to him by the way coaches use film, practices, and ultimately, how teams like Miami, Florida State, Florida, and many others, go about performing when the television cameras are rolling.
Smith wants to see on-field production on Saturday's. Hard to blame him. That concept, afterall, is why players train so hard.
That's why Smith’s final decision will be made differently than most recruits. He wants comfort as well, but that's not his primary goal.
The 6-foot-3 and 210-pound playmaker is mature enough to take a broad approach to the recruiting process and good for him for doing so.
