:o :o :o Good Luck! Title: Re: Simms is leaving Post by: ricky023 on April 27, 2012, 03:19:56 PM Well I have to say this is not a big shocker to me. He knew AJ beat him out for the starting and also won a NC Trophy, so it is hard to bypass that accomplishment. Best of the future and May God Bless you in your endeavors. RTR!

Title: Re: Simms is leaving Post by: pmull on April 27, 2012, 03:40:05 PM He seems like a good kid. I have always thought he was a good player. He had his shot and AJ won the job. I can't say I blame him for leaving. If I was in his shoes I would want playing time too. I think he will do well at Virginia or wherever he ends up.
Phillip Ely had a good spring and he will be a very good QB if he is needed. Our QB position is in good shape. Title: Re: Simms is leaving Post by: cbbama99 on April 27, 2012, 03:47:40 PM I hate to see him go, but I completely understand. Hopefully wherever he ends up he will get the starting nod and do well. If nothing else, he has a big ol' championship ring to flash around!

Title: Re: Simms is leaving Post by: Jamos on April 27, 2012, 05:11:56 PM Best wishes to Phillip, he handled his situation at Bama like a man. :clap:
Title: Re: Simms is leaving Post by: Catch Prothro on April 27, 2012, 08:22:43 PM Didn't read this at first because didnt know who Simms was. Yeah, it looks like a family situation. Best of luck to him.

Also invariably, someone would have to waste the time and effort to correct the fallacy. While wishing him the best, I feel that Nussmeier and CNS could better spend their time developing Ely.

Roll Tide PS ! Title: Re: Simms is leaving Post by: Marshal Dillon on April 27, 2012, 11:33:38 PM Whoa! This leaves a gaping hole in our depth at QB if AJ gets hurt. this makes me nervous.
:tinfoil: Title: Re: Simms is leaving Post by: N.AL-Tider on April 28, 2012, 07:09:07 AM Best wishes Phillip. As long as it isn't against the Tide, win 'em all. This ^ unless he winds up at Tenersee...which technically would be closer to family... :-XTitle: Re: Simms is leaving Post by: hscoach on April 28, 2012, 09:35:37 AM Whoa! This leaves a gaping hole in our depth at QB if AJ gets hurt. this makes me nervous. I agree. I have not seen much of PE except in a high school football game. I really wasn't that impressed, could have been a bad night. To, PS it was great having you here. I wish you and your family the best.:tinfoil: God Bless.

Yeah, the idea of a completely untested and very young QB stepping up to play against LSU, A&M, Missouri, etc., is someting to have major concern about. This is the SEC, not Conference USA. :shake: |
