[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 746880, member: 265"] I said it an earlier post; one good game doth not a season make. We don't know how Sims will turn out. If I had a nickel for every frosh QB who looks good for a game or two then flubs, I'd be waiting on the cornice at Nice wondering when my friend Johnny was going to show up for lunch. Same for every frosh QB who goes out and lights things up for a whole season. You just can't know, especially after two games. I think what will tell us something is if Sims and the coaches can adjust. A frosh QB is like a rookie pitcher in the majors. The way you tell if you have a potential winner is what he does after the batters figure out how to hit his best pitch, as they [I]always[/I] do. As was pointed out earlier by someone else, UCF was pretty effective in holding us up once they packed the box and dared us to throw long. Completing short/intermediate passes is no big whoop once the other side figures out how to stop them for 2 or 3 yards. I think one of the things we'll try to do this week is hit Brown long. I said earlier that I doubted that Sims lacked the arm strength to do this; he was following a game plan that the coaches thought he could execute. Now that has to change and we'll see what happens. If I'm right, that is. Personally, I think Sims could be a good, maybe a great QB for Tech. But it's too early to tell. [/QUOTE]
