You are assuming we don't grab another qb from the portal.

From my understanding, the Kennesaw state qb is on campus now.

You are correct but I gotta think that is a hard sell now unless the kid wants to play for peanuts.

One thing about the Kennesaw state kid is that outside of one conference game, he executed the offense and won. I wont be surprised if they give him enough money to come in and push Zollers and Simmons who both need a lot of work reading defenses and placing throws.

Yep. Right now I'd rather have the Kennesaw kid myself. There's gold in them small college hills.

is it worthwhile vs spending that $ elsewhere? Seems we have a lot of gaps to fill.

He's a high floor low ceiling option IMO. One thing is for certain, the staff cant afford to get that position wrong again.

Agree. But I want to say, I'm tired of hearing about "measurables", I want to see someone who has it between the ears.

From your mouth to God's ears. We haven't had intelligent and poised QB play for a long long time.

Kid supposedly is a true-life genius. Hope that translates to the game of football next season. He has to be better than "deer in the headlights" Pribula. Has to be.

Unfortunately, Eli keeps his hands on the balls.

SEC Unfiltered guys' take on Simmons

I was excited until they said he needs to work on accuracy and touch on the ball. Sounds like Mike Vick without the insane running ability. Oh well, hopefully the new OC knocks the rough edges off and Unfiltered's excitement is rewarded.

Reminds me of the great rocket scientist of Tennessee, Josh Dobbs.
