Illinois has become the first Division I-A football program to make an offer to South County High School junior Andre Simmons, but the Illini soon could have some company.
Virginia Tech and Virginia are both mulling offers to Simmons, a 6-foot, 195-pound defensive back who is a 3.7 student.

Quote:
Bendorf thinks Simmons will have multiple I-A offers.
“I sent tapes to Northwestern, Duke, Penn, Yale ... all those kinds of schools,” he said.
“I talked to [Tech assistant] Bud Foster today and he said they want to do a little more evaluation. I think they want to get him down there one day. With UVa, I talked to coach [Anthony] Poindexter and he said coach [Al] Groh wants to review him. They just got the tape two days ago.”
Bendorf said puts Simmons’ time for 40 yards at 4.6, which might seem slow by some standards.
“He’s a track kid, or at least he was a track kid,” Bendorf said. “That’s what he grew up doing. He’s run 23.2 in the 200 [meters]. I don’t have a legit 100 time for him. I was at Oakton forever and we always joked about ‘Oakton speed.’ We were good, but we never had really legit fast kids.
“Down here at Lorton, I’ve had five or six kids who could really run and Andre can run with them. I’ve timed him in 4.56. Of course, that’s a hand-held time, So, he’s legitimately fast.

Andre Simmons - College Football Recruiting 2010 - ESPN
Quote:
Junior Andre Simmons commented on his latest offer, from Maryland, "I think it's pretty big. I would be able to stay close to home and I can have friends and family come to see me play."
Virginia, Illinois and Northwestern have also offered the South Lakes (Lorton, Va.) product.
West Virginia and Boston College are two other programs Simmons will consider.

South County DB Andre Simmons - Simmons also attended Saturday's "Future Wahoo Day." South County head coach Pete Bendorf informed TheSabre.com that the visit went well, but as of now a commitment does not seem imminent. Simmons likely will decide by the end of the summer, though, and Virginia is in pretty good shape. Maryland, Illinois and Northwestern are UVa's top competition at the moment.

Another outstanding student in the Reynolds’ mold, Simmons apparently was also was a victim of the Cavaliers’ safety crunch. Rivals.com continues to list Virginia among the eight I-A programs that have made scholarship offers to Simmons, who has Boston College and Maryland on his list. Northwestern and Vanderbilt are involved, a sign of his academic bent. Don’t rule out Rutgers.
