Chris Simms has now admitted publicly that $100 handshakes were rampant on the Texas campus and has implicated others in this activity. Austin news is blasting Simms for this leak. I may have received a few $100 handshakes...
Chris Simms, certainly had a controversial career at Texas and the battle with Major Applewhite is legendary. Funny thing is that at this point Applewhite isn't esp popular with Texas fans, but that's most due to his stent as a coach. Simms of course with this latest is getting savaged on Texas message boards. Nobody is saying that he's lying of course, in fact one guy said he'd be embarassed if Texas players didn't get a $100 handshake. Overall Simms though had a good career at Texas just didn't have the big wins and is more remembered for the play in the OU/Texas game where the Roy Williams went Superman on him and got him in the endzone and Simms just tossed the ball up for grabs and Teddy Lehman picked it off on the goal line and scored to seal the game for OU.
