The Reggie Ball Years

Was Reginald really better than Sims?

Sims had an arm. If he had a receiver like CJ, he could just lob it 40 yds downfield and get receptions and TDs. Sims had far more talent than Reginald.

Sims didn't have half the competitive fire that Reggie had. Reggie never quit on any game. He may have come up short some we thought we could have won, but he always gave 100%.

Saved me a post. Reggie was nowhere near as controversial. And why would anyone even consider putting Ball and Sims in the same sentence. Sims is literally the worst QB I have ever seen take a snap for GT. Well, maybe 1/4" better than that guy - what was his name... Booker?

Booker beat Gardner Webb. He never lost to the Citadel or quit on his team.

Reggie Ball was an intense competitor and a very talented athlete. There was never any quit in him. I would love to have seen him played under Paul Johnson.
