Ty Simpson is a tremendously talented quarterback out of Martin, Tennessee. If that town in Tennessee sounds familiar, you’re probably right. It’s the home of the UT-Martin Skyhawks. The Skyhawks of the Ohio Valley Conference in the FCS have played many SEC opponents over the past decade plus and were recently added to Georgia’s schedule in 2023. The Head Football Coach of the Skyhawks is Jason Simpson, Ty’s father.
As the son of a coach, Ty displays poise and a knowledge of the game that comes with the territory. Combine that with the dual-threat abilities that have him rated as a 4-Star prospect by 247 Sports, and ranked in the top 100 prospects overall in the class of 2022, and it’s easy to see why Georgia and a plethora Power 5 schools are after Simpson.
