Minium: Decision to Move Stone Smartt to Wide Receiver is Paying Dividends for ODU Football

By Harry Minium

Stone Smartt might be the best athlete on Old Dominion's football roster. Clearly, the soft-spoken, ever polite senior from Sacramento, California is among ODU's most unselfish and team-oriented players.

Smartt has been a quarterback since he first picked up a football in grade school. When he played at Del Oro High School in Sacramento, California, he broke five school passing records and led his team to back-to-back state championships.

He was the California Offensive Player of the Year at Riverside City junior college, and started seven and played in 10 games for ODU in 2019.
