But there was also that whole five-game losing streak in the middle of the season. Smith's early grip on the Heisman Trophy slipped away and the Mountaineers’ season ended with a thud against Syracuse when Smith was less than impressive. Spavital admits Smith didn't have enough touch on his deep ball as a junior, but said the mid-season struggles in 2012 were a reflection of coaches asking him to do too much more than Smith himself.
So what exactly is that suppose to mean? I wish he would of elaborated more. Blaming his struggles saying they asked him to do to much is not exactly a ringing endorcement. The rest of the article is more of a fluff piece about film study. Hell I have heard the same stuff said about Wilson and Stanzi.
