The beginnings
Smith was born on October 10, 1990, in Lakemont, Georgia, to Eugene Smith Jr. and Tracy Seller.
Danny Smith, his great-uncle, was an All-American hurdler at Florida State who broke records, and Melvin Bratton, his cousin, was a star running back at Miami in the mid-1980s. His grandfather, who was called “Big Geno,” gave him the name “Geno.”
Smith got into the magnet program at Norland Middle School, where arts were taught for two hours a day.
He went on to Miramar High School, where former Mountaineer Damon Cogdell was his coach.
As a junior, he threw for 2,200 yards, 25 touchdowns, and three interceptions. He was named a second-team all-state quarterback. In 2007, he was also named to the second team of all-Broward County athletes. After his junior year, he was asked to go to Aliso Viejo, California, for the prestigious Elite 11 quarterback camp.
During Smith’s senior year, he led his team to the state 6A semi-finals and completed 205 of 338 passes for 3,089 yards and 30 touchdowns. He also ran for over 300 yards. He was named to the first team of all-state in Florida Class 6A, and Parade named him an all-American. He was also the best player in Broward County, according to the Miami Herald and the South Florida Sun Sentinel, and he finished second in the voting for Mr. Florida. At the end of his career, he was the third-best passer in Broward County’s history, and ESPN put him on its list of the Top 150 prospects. He could have gone to Florida State, South Florida, Boston College, or Alabama, but he chose to go to West Virginia instead.
Going to college
Smith went to West Virginia University. From 2009 to 2012, he played football for the West Virginia Mountaineers. During his time at West Virginia, he studied English as his major.
Smith played some games as a freshman because the senior Jarrett Brown was hurt and he was the backup. His first play in a regular season game was against Auburn. He completed 5 of 8 passes for 50 yards and had one interception. He would play against Syracuse, Marshall, and Louisville again. He would also play against Florida State in the Gator Bowl. Smith was the backup quarterback at West Virginia University in his first year. He completed 32 of 49 passes for 309 yards, threw one touchdown and one interception, and ran for 7 yards on 17 tries.

In the first game of the season, against the Coastal Carolina Chanticleers, he got his first start. During the 31–0 win, he completed 20 of 27 passes for 216 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception.
When the Mountaineers were down 21–6 to their in-state rival Marshall in the fourth quarter, Smith led his team to a comeback win. Smith led the first Mountaineers drive from the 4-yard line. With help from senior running back Noel Devine, the Mountaineers were only 8 points behind Marshall. After the Mountaineers’ defense stopped Marshall, a punt put them back near their own end zone at the 2-yard line. Smith found tight end Will Johnson in the corner of the end zone for a touchdown after he had completed 9 of 13 passes and run for 20 yards. Marshall was still ahead 21–19, so Marshall’s head coach Bill Stewart decided to try for the two-point conversion. For a two-point conversion, Smith threw a pass to wide receiver Jock Sanders in the back of the end zone. The Mountaineers ended up winning the game 24–21 in overtime. By the end of the game, Smith had completed 32 of his 45 passes for 316 yards and one touchdown. On 14 tries, he ran for 13 yards. Smith led the Big East in passing yards and passing efficiency after the first two games.

Smith tied his record for touchdowns in a game with four in a 37–10 win over Cincinnati. He was 15 for 25 and threw for 174 yards, four touchdowns, and one interception. The win came after the team had lost two straight games. It was the first time since 2007 that the Mountaineers had beaten Cincinnati.
