Smith had a successful career at Michigan State, where he was All-Big 10 four times and won the 1993 Big 10 10k. After his collegiate running days came to an end when he graduated from Michigan State in 1993 he decided to try for his masters and then PHD at The University of Washington. While at Washington he helped Coach Greg Metcalf with the mens and womens distance programs but had no real plans of becoming a head coach. In 1998 Smith was offered the head coaching job at Texas Tech, and he decided to try coaching for one year. Smith immediately fell in love with coaching and he has not looked back since. From 1998 to 2000 Smith was a busy man when he was not coaching at Texas Tech he was working on his PHD from Washington, and in 2000 all his hard work paid off when he earned his PHD in pharmacology. In 2002 Smith became an assistant coach at Oklahoma State and he has made an immediate impact. In 2005 just three years after Smith?s arrival the cowboys surprised the nation when they finished 8th at cross country nationals. Smith?s success did not go unnoticed, after the 2006 season Smith was named head men?s cross country coach. Smith?s first year as head cross coach he guided the Cowboys to their second straight top ten finish at NCAAs. Since 1998 Smith has coached two NCAA champs, 14 All-Americans and 12 big-12 champions. |
