There is entirely no hesitation when I say Trey Smith is the best Tennessee football player on the team. Smith, sidelined for undisclosed medical reasons, but there is good news on the horizon. First-year head coach Jeremy Pruitt said Smith would be back in the fall.
The five-star product from Jackson, TN was the highest rated recruit in the state from the 2017 class. According to 247Sports, Smith was the 14th best player in the nation. ESPN ranked him even higher as the number one overall recruit. Those are tough rankings to live up to, but as a freshman, he was just as good if not better.
