In this current era of college football, former five-star quarterbacks like Simpson just don't stay at a school this long if they aren't the starter. In fact, no five-star QB has done what Simpson has done in the history of the 247Sports recruiting era from 2010 until now.

Dylan Longeran, a former Alabama Crimson Tide quarterback, will get the start for the Eagles when they take on Fordham on August 30th. Longeran came over from Kalen DeBoer and the Crimson Tide in the winter.
