Close

A native of Humboldt, Tennessee, Smith attended the University School of Jackson, where he was a three-time All-State offensive lineman.^[1]

Regarded as a five-star recruit, Smith was ranked as the No. 1 prospect overall in the class of 2017 by ESPN.^[2] He chose Tennessee over scholarship offers from Ohio State, Ole Miss, and Alabama.^[3]

In his true freshman year at Tennessee, Smith started all twelve games; first at right guard, later at left tackle.^[4] For his efforts in the 2017 season, he was named to the All-Southeastern Conference (SEC) Second Team.^[5]

After starting the first seven games of this sophomore season at left tackle, Tennessee's medical staff discovered blood clots in Smith's lungs and ruled him out indefinitely.^[6] The issue had originally been discovered in February 2018, before the Volunteers' spring practice but thought to have been resolved.^[7] Smith missed the remainder of the 2018 season.^[8]

Cleared to return for his junior season, Smith was moved to left guard as true freshman Wanya Morris took over as left tackle.^[9] He was named to the All-SEC First Team. Despite some speculation that he would enter the 2020 NFL draft, Smith announced that he would remain in Tennessee for his senior year.^[10] He started all ten games and earned first-team All-SEC honors for the Volunteers in his last season.^[11]
