Ryder Smith brings true freshman power and versatility to Idaho State
Ryder Smith is a 2026 freshman RB for Idaho State who arrives with a bruising frame at 6'0", 223 pounds and a résumé that screams reliability: at Great Oak HS, he combined 1,369 rushing yards and 16 TDs in one season with 337 tackles and 22.5 tackles for loss on defense. In the 2026 season, he’s still early in his college story with no published stat line yet, but his profile suggests a physical, two-way competitor who can run through contact and add toughness to a backfield. If your team wants an intensity guy with upside, he’s worth the watch.
