He was the head football coach at Ohio Northern University in 1905, 1910 and 1918.[1] A member of the faculty at Ohio Northern from 1905 to 1942, he was also the faculty manager of athletics and was known as the school's "father of athletics".[2][3] Early years and college athleteSmull was born in 1875 in Mackeyville, Pennsylvania. He attended the Central State Normal School (now known as Lock Haven University of Pennsylvania) in Lock Haven, Pennsylvania. He played for the school's baseball team in 1897 and 1898. In 1900, he enrolled at Susquehanna University where he again played for that school's baseball team.[2] In 1901, Smull enrolled at Ohio Northern University. He remained active in athletics and was chosen as captain of both the football and baseball teams.[2] He graduated from Ohio Northern in 1904 with a degree in civil engineering.[3] In October 1903, Smull played in a football game against Michigan. Michigan coach Fielding H. Yost was impressed by Smull and recruited him.[2] In the fall of 1904, Smull transferred to Michigan. He appeared in five games for Yost's 1904 "Point-a-Minute" football team that compiled a 10–0 record and outscored opponents, 567 to 22.[3][4] Smull left Michigan before the end of the 1904 season, transferring to Lafayette College.

He remained as the honorary president and advisor to the Athletic Board until 1922.[2] In 1916, he led Ohio Northern's successful effort to seek admission to the Ohio Athletic Conference (OAC).[2] He remained the school's faculty representative with the OAC for many years.[5] He retired from the Ohio Northern faculty in 1942.[3] Later years and honorsFrom 1942 to 1955, he was a materials engineer for the Ohio Department of Highways.[3] He died in 1962 in Lima, Ohio.[3] As a tribute to Smull's contributions, Ohio Northern's engineering college is known as the T.J.
