Trey Smith ready to be big part of Wyoming backfield
After spending four years with Louisville, Trey Smith is going to get a shot to reinforce a depleted Wyoming backfield. the 6 foot 218 pound running back announced his decision to transfer to Wyoming last week and, being that he is a grad transfer with only one year of eligibility, he intends to be a big part of the Cowboys running game. After four years and minimal carries at Louisville, Smith is set to have a big role with Wyoming as he is one of only two currently healthy RBs (Xazavian Valladay). Jevon Bigelow has already left the program and Reow Jackson should be ready by Fall. The opportunity is there for Smith to make a big impact.
