NORTH CHARLESTON – Since arriving to Fort Dorchester over a decade ago, Steve LaPrad has seen three of his former players move on to careers in the NFL.
He believes John Simpson has the goods to be counted alongside Byron Maxwell, Robert Quinn and Carlos Dunlap.
“I told him,” LaPrad said, during last week’s on location interview with TheClemsonInsider, “We sat down and talked about it. I told him, ‘Keep your nose clean, do what you’re supposed to do, continue to get better.’
“He knows he’s really improving. I said, ‘Continue to get better, four or five years from now, you’ll be a first two rounder, for sure.
