Didn't Robert Smith catch flack from dOSU coaches for wanting take real courses and play school?
Yes - Smith sat out a season alleging a certain coach was trying to prevent him from getting to medical school... then Smith played the following season and bolted for the NFL - never bothering to complete a degree at OSU (for comparison, the Steelers’ retired Ryan Shazier went back to finish up and graduated last weekend).
Smith made his millions with the Vikings but then abruptly retired after 8 seasons and has been doing the sports network gigs since.
