Another Carolina Lion




6-3 212-pound QB AJ Simpkins from the Christ School in Arden, North Carolina has committed to Columbia, adding to the growing list of very talented Lions from the the Tar Heel State.

Simpkins had a long list of competing offers, including ones from Yale, Miami of Ohio, Fordham, Lehigh, and Kent State. 

He will be the first Christ School graduate to come to Columbia Football. But at this point before graduate transfer activity is finalized, there are currently seven other North Carolina natives on the team.

AJ Simpkins looks like a terrific quarterback prospect--perfect size and speed--very accurate passer with a strong arm--perfect complement for Edan Stagg our standout wide receiver commit from Louisiana who should excel at Columbia--we should have a tremendous passing game next year--running back commitments have to be our top priority now on offense.
