Garrett Simpson - UTEP QB - Possible transfer?

Mean Green 93-98 · December 27, 2015

On a quick search, I couldn't find anything posted here about it, but the 6'7" presumed UTEP starter at the beginning of the season is leaving the program: http://www.minerrush.com/2015/11/17/9750988/utep-football-garrett-simpson-leaves-utep

Here's a quote allegedly from his father to UNT:

Bob Simpson • 19 days ago
If you need a QB, my boy has 1 year of eligibility left after getting bit by the nepotism bug out in El Paso. And I'm sure he would love a shot to stick it to UTEP

He is from the Colony.

I have no idea if SL would be interested in him, but it's an interesting comment.

UTEP also pulled an offer a player in Rockwall they had offered. Don't recall his name or what position he played.

I don't even think he's necessarily talking about a player this recruiting class

ESPN lists a 5.1 40 but his tape at least defensively to me didn't show 5.1 speed. I'll take a 6'2 240 lb DE if he can keep getting after people like he did in the video.
