Smith taking Texas Tech to new heights

Chris Beard wants to coach dreamers.

And he’s got one who’s already doing things others only dream they could do.

In one quick move, his arms extend far above the rim to pull down the missed shot.

In another, those same arms seem to reach from sideline to sideline, diverting opponents’ shots at the hoop into the stands.

Finally, rocket boosters seem to take the form of his sneakers and he soars above the rim for a demoralizing slam.

All these things that make others “ooh” and “aah,” tweet #SCTop10 with the hopes of seeing what he does again on ESPN, just come naturally to Zach Smith.
