On a day where inclement weather loomed large, a former University of Alabama quarterback was on a practice field with his hands in prayer over two young men. It is seldom to see Blake Sims not give back to the game that has provided him with more than a voice, but also a platform to discuss his experiences as he continues to chart his own journey toward success.
Jefferson Davis High School, located in Montgomery, Ala., is the Alma mater of former Crimson Tide defensive back, George Teague. Sims, along with ex-Tide teammates Christion Jones (CFL) and Courtney Upshaw (NFL free agent), held a skills camp to encourage youth on athletics.
