It’s a 44-foot drop.”Smith recently completed his freshman year as a pre-med student at UK.”Dylan is a great kid with a very infectious personality,” Thompson said in a statement. “Although I am not able to be there with him, we have talked and he continues to improve. I know the Big Blue nation will send their thoughts and prayers to him and his family as we all hope for a speedy recovery.”Our thoughts and prayers are with Smith as he recovers from his injuries.
