Other suitors

None, Smith committed early and no schools tried to pull him away.

Recruitment story

The above section tells the whole story here: Smith committed as soon as he received his VT offer, and never waivered.

Statistically speaking

Smith missed almost his entire senior year with injury. He ran 40 times for 104 yards (2.6 per rush) and a touchdown, and completed eight of 28 passes (28.6%) for 115 yards (4.1 per attempt) and two touchdowns in two games.
