With the obvious direction we are going with portal QB targets.
I think it’s hella hella interesting that this will be the first time at Ole Miss that Kiffin has a first year starter going into the season without a QB competition for the spot.
We can debate the realness of the Plumlee / Altmyer stuff but it was optically and spoken in pressers presented as true comps in the first seasons of Corral and Dart.
So do we really feel this was because of absolute faith in Simmons or more of ridiculous upcoming market thing ? (Easy simple answer is both, just looking for convo on it)
I’m excited about Simmons talent but i’m really skeptical on what we will see in 2025 from a production standpoint. Given experience and not making waves at OL to improve a lot via Portal.
My opinion is we need to see the 2020-2021 run heavy versions of Kiffin’s offense to help Simmons out a lot.
We put too much on Jaxson Dart with the lack of a run game. It cost us games and we absolutely can’t do that with a first year guy.
