Back Seat Coachin’: Dr. Jeff and Mr. Sims

Jeff Sims was anointed the Georgia Tech starting quarterback for his freshman campaign in 2020. The former four-star prospect per 247 Sports, Sims went through growing pains and learning experiences jumping from Jacksonville, FL high school ball and into the ACC. On the season, Sims threw 13 touchdowns but also 13 interceptions. The first year starter ran six TD’s, too, but also fumbled snaps, had bad meshes with running backs, and was careless with the football at times.

With a year of ACC play under his belt, and a full and regular off-season, Sims is primed to correct many of those mistakes he made as a young QB during the COVID season.
