For Kicks:
"I really believe that Eric Smith has a chance to play at the next level. The NFL scouts have expressed an interest in him all season long because Eric is a smart, instinctive football player. He stayed healthy and had a very productive senior year. No one questions his toughness, and scouts have learned that he's faster than he looks on film."
- John L. Smith, MSU Head Coach

Eric ran his 20-yard shuttle drill in 3.97 during the MSU Pro Day. This time puts him in very elite company. For example, Michael Huff of texas ran the drill in 3.96.
