MONROE, La. – ULM head coach Keith Richard sat at his desk one afternoon last September and made a confident prediction about senior guard Daishon Smith.

"There will be some nights when he'll be the best player on the floor," Richard said with a smile. "I think he's that good."

In Smith's case, reality may have been greater than hype.

The senior transfer from Wichita State packed a career's worth of highlights into his lone campaign with the Warhawks.
