Read EvaluationMarcus Henry | Prep Redzone Scout
Smith has the poise of a player much older. he plays with confidence and he has a calm demeanor. Standing at six foot three, Ethan has a long, lean build, he has a cannon for an arm, he has a strong base when he sets up to throw and he engages his hips to get extra torque on his throws. During the Flex Zone 1v1s, Smith showed off his pinpoint accuracy, completing the short to intermediate throws at a high completion rate and he has the arm strength to thread the needle into tight coverage windows.
