Tevin Washington?
Tevin could be the next Nesbitt just as easily as Sims. as could Jordan. We will have 3 solid, viable options at QB next year
who will have had spring drills to practice,
unlike 2008, and Sims will come in to the program having only had fall practice, coming from a high school team that runs shotgun.
Sims will not be any where near ready enough to play QB his true freshman year compared to Tevin, Jaybo, and Nesbitt, and we only need 3 deep active at the position. He will certainly push both Jaybo and Tevin for the #2 spot his redshirt freshman year, but he will not see the field in 2009. I'd bet quite a lot on it.
Spring drills mean a lot for QBs who've never taken a snap from under center, and who aren't up to speed with making the mesh read a few feet from the DL.
I'm almost entirely sure the 3 deep at QB next year will be Josh - Jaybo - Tevin, with Sims and Jordan both redshirting. Now the following year, is up for debate. Could be Josh - Jaybo - Jordan. Could be Josh - Jordan - Sims. Could be Sims - Jordan - Josh for all I know. What I do know is that unless Sims wants to play D next year, he won't see the field, because we've rapidly accumulated athletic QB depth. And with 5 option QBs on the roster for 2009, it's entirely possible that one or two of them rotate into other skill positions to make room for new recruits. Tevin Washington might go A back or WR, and apparently Sims could go safety or CB.
