Named the new head coach of the Sylacauga Aggies. He has a very impressive record at the private HS he attended as their HC and spent one year at Hoover as their QB coach.

I think he had a younger brother who also went to USC east as a football and baseball player. Transfer to Bama as a catcher best I recall.

No, Chris is the guy that came to USC and played QB then transferred to Alabama and played baseball.

Sylacauga just rolls through former mediocre SEC quarterbacks. Wasn't Andrew Zow just there for like one year?

Nope. HIs younger brother Brad was a pretty significant role player as a TE/H on a Bama Championship team. Played for a little while with the Browns.

He got a call from Dabo and went to Clemson. Probably doubled his salary for sure

threw 3 TD up at Kenan Stadium in 2007 to beat the tarholes in front of what looked/sounded like a home game for Gamecock fans.

Dabo collects former Alabama players and legacies as a hobby.

There was a top ranked matchup between Kentucky and South Carolina in 2007.

Smelley was the QB for South Carolina in that victory.

They had a rough season this year - while in-town rival went to State. He will be under some pressure right out of the gate, but I guess that is the nature of the job

since my rug rats are long gone I dont keep up with the team and the players. I only know of one starter from last years team. He should be returning but not sure what else is coming back. I think our QB and RB were underclassman.
