With one week of the Volunteers' fall camp left, the junior who spent a year at Louisville and another at a junior college, is poised to become the team's starter when it begins preparing for the season opener against Tennessee-Martin next week.
Both Simms and freshman Tyler Bray have displayed strong arms, completing long touchdown passes and racking up impressive stats in the team's first two fall scrimmages.
But while rehearsing situations such as needing a touchdown late in the fourth quarter to win, or clock management late in a game, Simms has managed the offense with confidence as Bray has succumbed to what coach Derek Dooley calls ``freshmanitis.''
