Former NC State Linebacker Edrick Smith was killed yesterday in a tragic hit-and-run car crash in Charlotte, North Carolina. Smith had one of the most brilliant starts to a career in NC State history back in 1998 when he set the school record for tackles by a Freshmen with 98 tackles. After his phenomenal Freshmen campaign Smith was a candidate for the Butkus Award in '99, but he never got to meet his full potential due to knee and shoulder injuries. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Smith's wife, Karisa, and their three children. Please let the family know that you are doing the same.
