Tennessee's recruitment of a junior college quarterback has zeroed in on Matt Simms from El Camino Community College in Torrance, Calif., a source close to his recruitment told the News Sentinel. A scholarship offer is likely forthcoming after the Vols evaluated the former Louisville quarterback last weekend. The 6-foot-3, 215-pound Simms led El Camino to a 42-20 victory over College of the Desert by completing 22 of 30 passes for 320 yards and a touchdown and one interception. Simms left Louisville in January reportedly because he didn't feel he'd be named the starter. UT has a history with the Simms' family. Matt Simms' older brother, Chris Simms, committed to UT in 1999 before signing with Texas. Chris Simms is the backup QB for the Denver Broncos. Matt and Chris' father, Phil Simms, is a football analyst for CBS after a 14-year career with the New York Giants. -- Knoxville News-Sentinel

And he will sit on the bench at that school as well.

Just another notch on the belt of blunders of Steve Kragthorpe.

Didn’t even give the kid a chance. There’s a reason why Petrino brought him here. If he makes some noise at UT Krag will be painted an even worse idiot than he already is.
