John Simon belongs on the first page tonight. He was getting serious push when he was in today. In the past two games his strength has shown straight up the middle. He had a stop on a Toledo run that was a perfect play today. He stood up the blocker, then turned him with his strength when the runner tried to cut behind the blocker and tackled the runner while engaged with the blocker.
This guy is going to be rock solid in the middle of the defense.

Yeah he is stronger than most seasoned vets, and he's a true freshman. He will be a fantastic anchor for us in the middle for years to come.

It is not just strength with this kid, but man he is just hard to handle... Super fast reaction time after the snap and first move.. Plays well with is hands like he is a vet, and can move!
The young man is a beast!

Goebel and Simon are going to be a dominant duo for years to come.

If he continues to progress like this, he's going to be a monster. Anybody remember watching Reggie White throw guys around like rag dolls? I'm not saying he's Reggie White, but Johnny just imposes his will on blockers and puts them where he wants them. Our LBs are going to love playing behind this guy.

When I look at this kid i say hes just a great plug in the middle. but after seeing him run down the field. Kid has some wheels, he's mixed in a ton of stunts. dont be surprised if he stacks up some sacks with his 4.7 speed who also benches 420. gotta love this guy

He is showing that he is more than just a combine freak. You have to be impressed when a true freshman is making a impact at DT.

Simon is going to be a stud. Our defense will be sick next year if Cam and Gibson stay.

Next year's defense is looking to be something special IMO. The team in general should be excellent, but especially the defense. We'll have to replace a couple guys, but we've seen enough of the two deep to know that we'll be reloading again.

Yeah, they gave him the right number with #54.
The next Tim Anderson?

Dave Biddle's article talks about Simon's love of the weight room, and explains why Ross Homan calls John a "meatball".

Like I said on the first page...5 star type talent. It's really no big surprise to me that he is playing so much but I'm really glad he is panning out.
