and be like Jim Plunkett. Everything to date is so similar so far. He came from a lesser football school (yes Stanford was considered a lesser football school even though they were in the pac 8). Considered a complete failure even though he had bad coaching and poor personnel around him, and badly injured in the NFL, gets released by the Patriots. Signs with another team and has great success, even winning a super bowl.

I don't know that Smith will ever win a super bowl, but I think he can be a very good qb in this league. Its just too bad he has had such a lousy head coach.
