  What if he could get back to the form he had as a freshman, when he started 10 games, caught 30 passes and scored three touchdowns? What if he and his 6-4, 227-pound frame could supply the Gamecocks with a sorely needed receiver, since they're really starting over at quarterback and their most dependable returning pass-catcher is a tight end? "I feel like OrTre stepped to the plate as we know he could," said cornerback Cam Smith, who often draws the assignment of covering Smith in practice. "He's making great strides to be the No. 1 receiver here." OrTre Smith has certainly looked good thus far, no extra wraps or braces on his knee and a hulking presence in the receiver group. A strong work ethic and unshakeable belief in himself wouldn't let him leave this opportunity on the table. "I've been having flashes in my head of what I can really do if I'm 100 percent healthy. I know what I can do. You guys haven't seen it," Smith declared. "I had a little flash my freshman year. Me personally, I know I could be the best to ever do it if I stay healthy and get in shape." There's that phrase again. "If I stay healthy." The knee limited him to two games in 2018 and while he played in nine games the next year, he wasn't the same. Then he was gone for 2020, meaning Smith hasn't actually played since Nov. 30, 2019. - The Post and Courier
