“That was pretty cool,” Blake’s father, Sonny Sims, said of getting a phone call from Richt on Monday. “Coach Richt has been part of Blake’s life for a long time. We’ve got pictures of Blake with Coach Richt as a 9th grader. That’s why we couldn’t understand why Georgia didn’t snag him early because he’d been groomed all his life for Georgia. Everything in our house was Georgia. We were shocked when Blake committed to Alabama. It just happened. He didn’t even give me a chance to talk to him about it. He just did it. But he did and we’ve got a good relationship now with Coach [Nick] Saban. So it’s a tough situation.”
quote:
“Here’s what we’re dealing with: The parents a love Coach Richt,” Sonny Sims said. “Blake loves coach Richt. We’ve known him for four years and we think he’s the perfect man for our child to live with for the next four years. But we also raised Blake to believe that his word is his bond. And Coach [Nick] Saban is an honorable man, too. So Blake gave his word on one side but his heart is on the other side.”
quote:
“I know one thing that’s going to happen: He IS going to sit down and talk to Coach Richt,” Sonny Sims said. “That’s got to happen because half of the things we raised Blake on were from things Coach Richt said.”

I think Simms should follow Saban's example.

Compares well to Sam Gibson, not a make-or-break recruit by any means.

That Simms doesn't look like this Simms.
Posted on 10/21/09 at 8:28 pm to MightyMikeTheTiger
That's probably because it's this Simms.
My bad!

More proof that kids being recruited today often don't know shite!

Perhaps the Sims' should go talk to the parents of the kids Nick Saban kicked off the team because he over recruited the last three years.
Yeah, Saban is a man of his word.
