I don’t know if Clemson has ever had a player as versatile as 11. He reminds me of two players: George Webster and Lawrence Taylor. If you are too young to have seen these guys play, check to see if YouTube has some. Simmons is a defensive game changer.

Andy Headen. Similar story. Came in as a QB recruit at something like 6’3” and 195 lbs but because of his incredible athleticism and desire and the fact we had 2 good QBs ahead of him, they converted him to a defensive player whose role was very much like Simmons’ this year. Watching him develop from a skinny QB recruit to a starting linebacker in the NFL was fantastic!

You know, I'm still missing Levon Kirkland, who looks and sounds like he could still put his pads on and play, but we always seem to have guys that come in and step up and meet the challenge - like Mr. Simmons. God bless him, and all true orange blooded Tigers!!!

Yes, we will miss him but just take a look at Mike Jones and the studs coming in January 2020. Burch, Bresee, etc.
it looks like we just picked who we wanted and we took all the best ones!

Also when it comes to midseason picks by the media of the best players at their respected positions, Simmons is never mention by no one at linebacker. A head scratcher, though not surprised since it's a media pick.

No one picks him as one of the top LBs, cause #11 is not a LB! He plays that position for us, but he is a safety playing LB. I think he could play any position on the defense other than DT and still be all ACC.
Is there an award for best defensive player? I would pick him for that.
