Kaden Smith will be a big part of Stanford’s 2018 football season, according to David Shaw. At the Pac-12 Media Day in Los Angeles, he described Smith as “the next Zach Ertz,” but even better: “He’s developed earlier than Zach, he’s bigger than Zach.” Shaw wrapped up his thoughts on Smith by saying: “If you were KJ Costello, you’d be excited too.”
