It gets better!I wasn't able to get Jim Leavitt on Wednesday night, so I went back to try to catch him Thursday afternoon. Not only is Phil Simms back visiting the football office again, but he has Chris Simms with him, watching videos of last year's team, then watching informal workouts on the practice fields. Very interesting, and just to put this in perspective, Matt Simms' head coach at Don Bosco Prep told me that USC is also recruiting Simms.One player who says he will be at USF this fall is linebacker Marvin Peoples, tabbed a three-star recruit by Rivals out of Apopka last year. He redshirted last season at Maryland but told me Thursday he's accepted a scholarship offer and is transferring to USF, primarily to be closer to his family in Apopka.It could be as many as five linebackers in this recruiting class, and Peoples would be one of the most highly touted of the gang. He's 6-1, 230 pounds, says USF likes him as a middle linebacker. Played three seasons at Orlando Evans then went to Apopka his senior year -- his high school coach said he was lining up as a second-string linebacker at Maryland this spring.He's coming to Tampa on Monday to fill out his paperwork, and as long as he's accepted into the university, he's on board, potentially to play four years.http://www.sptimes.com/blogs/usf/Link added by SCBullsfan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said Maryland made a late push, sold him on playing in the ACC -- I think D'Qwell Jackson was his host on a campus visit and that really impressed him.Sounds like Maryland even gave him a look at fullback this spring as an experiment, but he's at USF as a middle linebacker ...

Something must be in the works if chris is out here too and watching film. Either that or they are seeking the advice of Phil to revamp our qb play, but I doubt he would be doing that, nd its more likely we will see matt simms on our roster next year.

Maybe Phil and Chris were using Matt as a ruse to pick the brain of one of the brightest young minds in college football.I wonder if they showed up with a big box of Krispy Kremes.
