Daily News | Defensive back Tykee Smith’s long road back for the top-ranked Georgia Bulldogs
West Philadelphia native Tykee Smith spent the first decade of his life waiting to sign himself up for contact football.
Smith was once considered the hottest commodity on the transfer portal after two seasons at West Virginia that produced 114 tackles and four interceptions, but all he has focused on this season is getting fully healthy. The talent that Imhotep’s program has produced — D.J. Moore, David Williams, and Shaka Toney, to name a few — cannot be overstated, and Smith credits the star power that surrounded him as a sophomore with helping him receive attention from college coaches.
That fresh start? In Athens, for Kirby Smart’s Georgia Bulldogs, a program that was knocking on the door of a national championship. On April 4, 2021, SmithSmith got a taste of how stiff the competition was during spring practices.
