Troy Smith Biography

Troy Smith played high school football at Glenville High School in Cleveland, Ohio, before embarking on his successful collegiate and professional football career. Glenville High School has a reputation for producing talented football players, and Smith was no exception.

Under the coaching of Ted Ginn Sr., who is also the father of former NFL player Ted Ginn Jr., Smith developed his skills as a quarterback at Glenville. Ted Ginn Sr. is renowned for his coaching prowess and his ability to mentor young athletes, contributing to the development of several football talents, including Smith.

Smith’s time at Glenville High School set the foundation for his future success in football. His skills, leadership, and accomplishments at the high school level played a crucial role in attracting attention from college recruiters, ultimately leading him to play for The Ohio State University.

Smith played college football at The Ohio State University, where he had a remarkable tenure as the starting quarterback for the Ohio State Buckeyes. In 2006, he had a standout season, leading the Buckeyes to an undefeated regular season and securing a spot in the BCS National Championship Game against the Florida Gators.

His exceptional performance on the field earned him the prestigious Heisman Trophy, awarded annually to the most outstanding player in college football. His achievements extend to receiving prestigious honors such as the Walter Camp Award and the Davey O’Brien Award for his outstanding quarterbacking skills. Smith became the first Ohio State player to win the Heisman since Eddie George in 1995. His ability to lead the team, combined with impressive passing skills and on-field intelligence, contributed significantly to his Heisman win.

The recognition and success at the collegiate level propelled Smith into the National Football League (NFL). Despite facing challenges in the professional ranks, Smith’s legacy remains firmly established in college football history, marked by his Heisman Trophy and his impact as a standout quarterback for the Ohio State Buckeyes.
