Jeffery Simmons made the right decision to stay... Now what will he do in the upcoming 2018 season?

In 2016 Mississippi State signed a solid recruiting class along with its first five star recruit, Jeffery Simmons. A product of Macon Mississippi, Simmons was the number one recruit from the state of Mississippi and considered a top ten recruit nationally by 247 Sports. The 6 foot 4 inch 301 pound defensive end had all the tools needed to provide an instant impact on the Mississippi state defensive line. Recruited by several power five programs to include Alabama, Auburn, and LSU, Simmons selected State to be the place he would continue his football career a decision that has proved to be a very smart one.
