Tight end Eric Ebron is one reason Smith is unbeaten
Posted Oct 14, 2010
Eric Ebron received a football scholarship offer from the University of North Carolina without playing a down of high school football. Smith coach Rodney Brewington took the 6-foot-5, 230-pound rising junior, a transfer student from Rhode Island, to an off-season camp at UNC to get exposed to players his own size. But when they arrived, Ebron physically stood out from the crowd like he towers over classmates in the hallways at Smith. The Carolina coaches moved him from receiver, where he had signed up, to work with a group of about 40 tight ends. The Tar Heels offered Ebron a scholarship that day.
