That season was tragic.
 
Dropping a level to get a starting job is quitting. Simms went to a JUCO, then to the SEC. I call that moving up.
 
Going from Louisville, to JUCO, to Tennessee is a natural progression. Oh, and he didn't leave JUCO for Tennessee. He finished JUCO, then came to Tennessee.

Going from Tennessee to Chattanooga is pathetic.

Clueless



Going from Louisville to JUCO is progression ? the guy quit UL to play plain and simple.
 
He left Louisville because he wasn't going to start.

"Dropping a level to get a starting job is quitting."
 
The difference is that Simms was determined to play major collegiate athletics. Coleman went to Chattanooga, where he could start. He never once planned on going back to the FBS. Going from the Big East to the SEC and getting a starting job is progression. Dropping from the SEC to the Southern Conference to get a starting job is not progression. It's admitting that you can't cut it.

Comparing him to the likes of Joe Flacco is sad. Flacco is the exception, not the rule.

Who are you directing this towards me or just the string in general?
 
I love how this debate has evolved into a discussion comparing two awful quarterbacks, neither of which are good enough to start for the Vols.
