HAMPTON ROADS, Virginia -- Former Oscar Smith quarterback Phillip Sims apparently has picked his third college.
Sims, who had short stints at Alabama and Virginia, used his Twitter account Sunday to announce he was headed to Winston-Salem State University.
“I’m the newest member of the #wssu fam,” Sims’ account read. “I am thankful for this opportunity that I’ve been given.”
Attempts to reach Sims were unsuccessful Sunday.
Winston-Salem State is a member of the Division II CIAA. Sims told The Pilot last week that he had narrowed his list of suitors to three or four schools and that he’d have to sit out a season whether he chose a Division I or II school.
Sims heads to a program coming off its most successful season. The Rams finished 14-1 and reached the Division II national title game.
University of Virginia announced in late May that Phillip Sims was academically ineligible and would leave school after the summer session. The former Alabama recruit is now headed to Winston-Salem State to get his college career back on track.
