[QUOTE="JacketOff, post: 767742, member: 4572"] How many true freshmen came in this year and “hit the ground running”? Hint, there are none Last year is irrelevant when talking about true freshmen. The circumstances involving true freshmen this year are unlike anything we’ve ever seen in the modern history of college football. Now I’m sure you’ll point to Max Johson’s game against Florida, and while he did play well, it wasn’t necessarily a great performance. Also keep in mind that the OL he was playing behind, and the weapons he had at his disposal are much better than what Sims has played with all year. Johnson threw 36 passes for 239 yards against Florida. In the games that Sims attempted 30+ passes he threw for 277, 244, and 238. The one area that Johnson has clearly been better than Sims is protecting the football. But again, when you have better pieces around you, it’s a lot easier to do that. Also, Sims is a [I]much [/I]better runner than Johnson is. Sims wasn’t perfect this year, but he did get a lot better as the year went on. He’s got plenty of tools and potential to be a top tier QB. Tech has to do a better job of protecting him though. With an off-season to work on cleaning his game up, and with Peery coming in early, Sims is going to take a massive jump in productivity next year, given the OL doesn’t take a step back. [/QUOTE]
