Not sure he would come to Tennessee, but...

Supposedly he has finished his undergrad degree and could enroll in grad school and not sit out a year, but I have not been able to verify that...could just be bammer fans talking.

He will likely go to Bama. Bama needs a fill in QB in 2014, and then Ricky Town comes in 2015, thanks to Kiffin. Their backup Sims this year isn't very good, and the incoming freshman Cornwell won't be ready.

I'm not sure its true he could transfer and play right away though.  I don't have any confirmation of that.

He is supposed to graduate in the spring. A graduate can transfer and doesn't have to sit out a year. If he does transfer, he would still have two years of eligibility. He's from Mobile, so for our sake I hope he does end up at Bama. The OP is correct on our QB situation. Right now, there is no clear answer who it might be and a concern going into next year.

Yeah, I'm well aware of your issues at QB. 

Although one of my bammer fans said he wasn't sure Blake Sims could "understand Saban's offense" (cringe).

The potential problem with Sims is he isn't a true drop back passer, and is more of a runner (even spent some time at RB). and is a roll-out passer. That type of QB is not what you normally see in Saban's pro style offense. BTW, it seems the Tide will run some HUNH this season. Well, if ya can't beat them, join them. Heck, if nothing else I hope it helps our defense by seeing that offense in practice. They need it.
