Andre Smith?

Post by DenverFalcon »

The Yuckeye fan out here said that Troy "Bud Select" Smith's brother Andre used to play for BG. When did he play, and what position? I don't remember him. :?

There's an Andre Smith listed in the media guide as earning a letter in 1987.

From Troy Smith's bio on the OSU website:

Personal: Is the son of Tracy Smith and Kenneth Delaney … has a sister, Brittany, who attends Cleveland State and is a registered nurse … an older brother, Rod, played guard at Ohio State in the early 1990s, and another brother, Andre, played at Bowling Green … a third sibling, Irvin White, played at Walsh College … lists Michael Vick and Donovan McNabb as two of his favorite football players.

Talk about an older brother if its the same Andre Smith that played here in '87.... :shock:

I was thinking more like Andre could have been his dad. :shock:

I note that one of his siblings has a different last name, so maybe it wasn't Andre Smith. Was there an Andre White?

No Andre White listed.

OK, I wanted to add an "Andre" to the list so I googled 'Andre'. Of course Agassi came back a lot, but this was the best name I could find:

Andre Tits.
