in response to LSG410EC83:

How does it feel to be the second classless poster that knows not what he is talking about. The school this young man played for in high school has had to compete since the early 80's against teams that have much more talent. Kind of like Carson Newman playing against Alabama. New schools were built which took much of the talent that used to attend Sullivan Central. Have to admire a young man that can continue practicing day in and day out in high school with very little hope of winning. Have to say this young man has a lot of character (something you evidently know nothing about) to be able to do it and then attempt to walk on to UT and making it. Very easy to sit behind a keyboard and spout out garbage as you have. No confrontation that way. I am sure you could be led to the presence of this young man at the University so you can tell him face to face. Someone as spineless as yourself will not do this. OK, I took the bait and responded. As for Mr. Simcox, do us old Central Cougar players proud. May never make it into a game, but will succeed in the big game of life and that is what is most important. IT IS GREAT TO BE A TRUE TENNESSEE FAN. GO BIG ORANGE.

Just like the young Simcox this post is full of class. I've got a feeling that CBJ will get a few of these Simcox type of players, and just like Notre Dame this year and Boise St every year, you just never know what might happen. We can only hope for the best. It's hard to have class these days what with the lack of civility and manners missing in our fast paced, cynical,self serving society. I sure hope this young man prevails as I'm sure his proud parents have know doubts of his future success.
