    Damn I hope he is better than Chrissie...

    Matt Simms is pulling out a lead on Tyler Bray for the starting position.

    I didn't know you got Matt Simms, I thought he went someplace else out of high school.

    Nick Stephens called it quits today. Being pushed to 3rd string or worse didn't fit into his 5th year senior plan.

    Stephens leaves the team

    Well unless he moves down to 1AA or lower he can't play anywhere in Div 1A again. Not to mention that even if he does transfer to 1AA, unless he goes to a program with no QB's he'll still have to win a job.

    I understand. I feel bad for his situation but I have always criticized Fulmer for remaining loyal to a less qualified senior when a better freshman or sophomore is sitting on the bench.

    I wish him well wherever he lands... if he even pursues football at another venue.
