St. John Fisher University Athletics

Bud Sims has made a significant impact in the lives of many young men since becoming at coach. He was instrumental in the development of Fisher graduate Mike Kallfelz, who played tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs in 2006, and 2008 graduate Brennan Fortune who was a consensus All-American.

Sims guided 2011 graduate Corey Balcerzak, a two-time All-American selection. Under Sims, Fortune earned All-American status in 2007 along with being named to D3football.coms All-Decade Team. He also coached tackle James Thomas, who was selected as a First Team All-American by d3football.com in 2013.

Sims coached with former NY Giants head coach and current Jacksonville Jaguars VP Tom Coughlin at R.I.T. and then accepted the head coach position at SUNY Brockport. Sims led the Golden Eagles to four consecutive winning seasons and left as the program's most winningest coach.
