The program included a fundamental financial literacy session for all freshman, transfers, and January enrollees followed by a session for all returners. The goal is to help student-athletes dive deeper into financial literacy. Smith provided worksheets of monthly budgets in order to stress saving and establishing credit
 
 
Eric Smith is a financial literacy coach, who also presents to rookies of the NFL. The sessions are engaging for the student-athletes, which helps them grasp the concepts presented.
