“He’s got great leadership qualities. He played under what I thought was one of the best staffs that he been around,” Smart said. “When he played there, it was George O’Leary. The job that he did there goes unrecognized. It was during some of the time that I was playing here. He had some of the best Georgia Tech teams there qere. They were so physical, so competitive. I think Brent playing under him shaped him into who he is and who he’s becomes as a coach.”
