Recruitment Comment in his Blog
"I haven't really been focusing a whole lot on college recruiting; my father handles that pretty much, but I've got interest from LSU, obviously, because my godfather (David Patrick) is on staff there. Then Duke, of course, because they were one of the first schools to watch me. Then there's St. Mary's, Washington State and Ohio State, they sent me my first letter"

I hope the relationship with David Patrick doesn't gravitate Simmons to LSU.

There is something about football schools which can hinder a players ability to get drafted.

Was a big reason why Rosario transferred from Rutgers to Florida.

He'll have just about every Blue Chip school after him.. I hope he picks a team that'll help him get to the next level, not because of there name.

Right there with you Vart. Duke would be a great fit! He is similar to Jabari Parker who is headed to Duke next season. Can't wait to see how Parker plays under Coach K.
