seems to be the case this kid just wanted to get out of his own shadow growing up with some hardships. Why run from your own mom, friends, community? Seriously, how soon is he going to see playing time at Bama? He should know how we got all the contributors as early on the field.
I was watching this kid in the Under Armour All American game..... Point blank he is a baller, if he switches to us it will be a BIG plus to our secondary. If he doesnt than i believe he will rival Tyrann Mathieu has being one of the best DB in the SEC
Seriously, with his talent, if he goes in the summer and works hard and learns the playbook, he could potentially start from day one. Remember, Bama is losing it's starting FS (Barron), and from my Bama friends have told me, they do not have a clear cut successor. It's actually at LSU where he would have to wait a year unless he plays SS or Reid moves down to SS...which if he did flip and he did blow it up in the summer is extremely plausible simply because he's faster than Reid and Reid is so smart he can probably play either safety position and maybe even LB if needed. Very good article as well. I suspect that if the young man decides to stick with Bama, mom will be front and center at every game screaming Roll Tide and cheering for her son...while wearing purple and gold. I also suspect he will get to whichever school he decides on, start running more leg than a porn star to the dismay of that girlfriend of his...and she will stop taking the birth control or poke holes in the rubbers. She will not be denied!
JNewbergESPNJamie Newberg@ @JNewbergESPN Landon Collins just texted me, saying he did not visit #lsu and is 100% signing with #alabama next week.
Exactly, with his talent, I dont think he will be sitting out too long with LSU either. Yes, there is Eric Reid and the perplexity involved in positional changes but I don't see that as a compelling reason he opted for Bama. Its personal for him.
I think he stays with the gumps and he should honor his commitment, At this point, he will make an even bigger aas of himself by flipping. M2Cs.
That happens to be a really, really good article, not like some of the crap ESPN tries to pawn off as new worthy. Very fair to both Mom and Collins. I wish him the best, where ever he ends up, and IF he ends up in Tiger Stadium next season in Crimson, he'll be tigerbait for 5 hours.
