Ode to Simon Reeves
 

Simon Reeves, you are the man
The 3 star recruit, you ran and ran
You came to UTEP when we were a one star team,
You couldn't catch, but you could run like a sunbeam

A stop gap for the plan,
all the HB's in the class gave us the pan,
I told you if you came to UTEP you'd be THE man,
and you ran and ran and ran

I couldn't redshirt you because I needed your speed
How little did I know you could lead,
Running inside, outside, and the option
You caused quite an NCAA conniption

Two Heisman's and an NC later,
The 3 star recruit who couldn't catch a 'tater
ran through defenses like the shaving cream commercials
who could have ever known you'd give defenses facials

Let's raise a glass to Simon Reeves,
now making millions in the NFL.
Although you fumbled many times to start the second half of games,
To UTEP, and this coach, yours is of the most hallowed names.

The 3 star recruit with the 4.22 speed,
hands of lead but blocking schemes you could read

The four year starter who never threatended to go pro on me

I love you, man.
(and Simon, thanks for getting me the Florida job!)

how gay was that

Re: Ode to Simon Reeves
 

i would say i love you, too... but am left only to note the unironic juxtaposititon of your nick and the contents of your first post.

Re: Ode to Simon Reeves
 

Pretty cool IMO.

Re: Ode to Simon Reeves
 

its kind of sickening that you took the time to come up with that

Re: Ode to Simon Reeves
 

I find it sickening you took the time to put that dumb pic in your sig, when were not allowed to have pics in our sigs. Oh and I recruited a 3-star middle linebacker to Michigan who just had amazing speed and ended up making over 200 tackles with him his senior year. So for those of you who think this is gay, try running a dynasty and not getting attached to a particular player who you found underrated in the recruiting.
