Former Alabama football quarterback, Blake Sims received a thank you message from Ole Miss’ head coach Lane Kiffin on last week.
Kiffin wanted the now high school football coach to know he played a huge role in his coaching career.
“I just want to thank you,” Kiffin told Sims, per ESPN’s Chris Low. “You probably don’t know how much you helped my career.”
Sims was the Crimson Tide’s starting quarterback in 2024 when Kiffin was Alabama’s offensive coordinator. The two helped usher in the beginning of a more explosive offensive passing attack in Tuscaloosa during that season.
