Haha taken from Rivals. Catch it while you can.
I think it is from scout ssince it is on that independent blog with coachbt. Anyways, good stuff.

I hope the premium site police don't start dropping theft accusations on me. But back to the video topic, Smith looks pretty quick and shifty.

Is he #2? I was thinking the same thing.
Me too. And even at his height, gets low and runs behind his pads pretty well, too.
Speaking of height, what's Grady listed at? 5'10"? From the video, he and Vincent Smith look like they're exact same height.

according to spring roster on mgoblue.
I agree about Smith. Looks real good.
Of course it's just spring drills but I think he could fit in real well with the other backs.
Yeah, Smith looks solid. He's gonna be a tough one to being down I think. He reminds me of that kid Jaquizz Rogers from Oregon State who ran through USC's whole defense, and he's like 5'7".
Kevin Grady is a freight train. Sad face :(
I must say, Tate throws a pretty nice ball. Good to see.
looked really good, nice wiggle and shiftiness.
I had never seen Cox before but he looked solid, too.

Smith looks to be looking good, he is going to be pretty hard to bring down in space for sure. As long as he doesn't get creamed like McGuffie he will be a very nice addition to the slot/WR.

Another quick observation: Will Campbell appears to be in much better shape than he was at the AAA game (i.e. no huge gut hanging off him).

you think McGuffie looked as good in practice as Smith does here?
just wondering
McGuffie looked pretty good last fall, but Smith runs low and looks more elusive. He might not get hit as hard because of it. Smith also will have a 5 month advantage by the time he hits the field.
I honestly never have seen a video of McGuffie practicing so I can't comment on that. I know Brian likes to use the expression "waterbug" a lot to describe small slot/RB players. But that is what Smith looks like in the video, he is so quick with his cuts, he looks good for sure.
