Emmanuel Forbes told a Mike Leach story this week. Forbes recalled that Leach told the team, he didn’t really see in them that they thought they could win the game against Alabama. Smoot told Forbes he needs to start eating steaks and work with the weights to put on needed weight to his frame. Smoot warned Forbes that teams will want to attack his slim frame and want to run outside at Forbes. Forbes seemed to think it was simple, “Honestly, it’s mental, just being locked in every play.”Forbes feels playing at Mississippi State prepared him for the mental awareness he will need in the NFL.
