Any reason why Tobias Smith didn't play?

He's someone that they need to let him sit the rest of the season to get healthy. I don't think he's a game changer at this point. No sense in risking futher injury.

I've done my mind the favor of just writing him off.

I hope our staff is doing the same in its recruiting strategies.

It seemed like from day one he was expected to be an impact offensive lineman. I agree that we should just sit him and see if he can recover for next year. The offensive line has done a pretty decent job so far this year, so I don't think him playing at 70-75% is going to be something that would improve the play of our offensive line. Let him practice a little, try and rehab the ankle, and let him give it a go next year. The worst thing to do to a recurring injury is to try and rush it back or keep trying to push through it.

I was at the game and saw him walk out on the field with the team. He was not in uniform, but he was wearing his jersey. He had a boot on his foot and he was hobbling around.
