The Big Ten’s weekly awards honored two former Georgia high school players. Minnesota RB Rodney Smith was the offensive player of the week. Smith had 257 all-purpose yards (including 111 rushing and a 94-yard kick-return touchdown) in a 34-32 victory over Rutgers. Penn State CB Grant Haley was the co-special teams player of the week. He blocked a field goal and returned it 60 yards for a touchdown in a 24-21 victory over Penn State. For which Georgia high schools did Smith and Haley play? (Answer Monday)
Answer to Thursday’s question: Auburn’s Montravius Adams, the SEC defensive lineman of the week, played high school football at Dooly County.

I remember Rodney Smith as the player from Mundy’s Mill who about single-handedly ousted Lee County in the second round of the 2013 5-A playoffs. If you’d let him get to the edge, he would rack up the yardage. Think he had over 2000 yds. his senior year.
@SWGA Fan == Right you are. I used to watch him quite a bit. Mundy’s Mill is only about 4 miles from Lovejoy. Good ballplayer. He almost did the same thing to Gainesville with Watson.
Got something to say?
