Former Mississippi State Bulldog Preston Smith has had a pretty good week by any standards.
Last Friday, the Washington Redskins selected Smith in the second round of the NFL draft, fulfilling a dream for the defensive end. This weekend, he checked off another life goal when he received his diploma from Mississippi State for his degree in interdisciplinary studies.
