📡 Phillip Sims - former Bama QB hired as head coach at JR Tucker High School back home in Virginia

[Max]

Former record-setting quarterback Phillip Sims was hired as head football coach Friday by J.R. Tucker High.

The Oscar Smith alum is staying in the Richmond area and moving from John Marshall, where he helped the Justices rebuild. They went from 1-9 to 4-7 to 6-5 last season, making the playoffs the past two years.

Because of school construction, Tucker won’t play a true home game the next two seasons. The Tigers have won just one game total in the last two years, and their only playoff appearance ever was in 1992, according to the Richmond Times-Dispatch.

Sims starred for Oscar Smith High before playing for Alabama, Virginia and Winston-Salem State. He went to training camp with the Arizona Cardinals.

Whew...a bit before that.

A long debate going back to the fall preceding that A-day.

I saw Step L posting recently ... what was the 'net gig he and his brother had at the time? Anyone recall?

I remember people giving AJ shit for the infamous fuck boy tattoo that he had on his chest that was revealed in a photo (and IMO it was rather cringe).

Embrace it, if you hang around long enough it will come with more regularity.
