Simmons is at least a 3 star level player. He actually might be one of the first defensive players to see the field.
He's 3-star on 247 and Scout. Ridiculous that he isn't here (same with Vokolek...head-shaking IMHO).
It's a good commit but how many "diamonds in the rough" are we going to recruit?
Apparently Alabama was giving Simmons a long hard look.

We'll get "diamonds in the rough" until we fill all our ships.
I rather we hold on to these ships, but...its Ash's call... Its his job that is on the line.
Because this poster trolls negative o anything.I hope this is sarcasm

THIS ^^^^^^^^^^^^Diamond in the rough? He has offers from Tenn, VT, Miss St, Pitt, WVU...
Those offers tell a bigger story than how many stars some recruiting "specialist" gave him.
Why? Because the mighty Alabama wouldn't take a chance on a low ranked New Jersey native? How about this guy. https://n.rivals.com/content/prospects/28012I hope this is sarcasm
Why would anyone think it is ok to bash incoming players on a commitment thread???? WTF??? SMH...
Welcome to the Banks!
This guy is a great get!
Happened all the time the last few years, but some felt justified in doing and will still defend their behavior to this day. IMO, it is never right.Why would anyone think it is ok to bash incoming players on a commitment thread???? WTF??? SMH...

First of all no one is "bashing" anyone. Second I'm not too worried about what some kid thinks who just got a free ride - perhaps undeservingly considering his skills may not be commensurate with the level of play he will face. I'd be happy too if I were him but should we ? It's funny how most on here knocked Flood for his recruiting but now embrace the DisASHster for doing essentially the same job.

I'm liking this pickup more and more BUT STILL can't believe he's only a 2-star per Rivals. Guess he didn't "camp"?
If you are chalking Simmons up as a typical Flood level recruit, then you are too uninformed about this years's pool of recruits to have an opinion worth taking seriously.First of all no one is "bashing" anyone.
