Congrats Alex!

3 straight 1000 yd. seasons puts him in elite SEC company.
A great ambassador for Arkansas and the SEC.

It'll be fun watching him in the league.

He was a good running back and made it impossible not to like. Seemed to really be a team player and class act. Good luck to him in the future.

One fine player and a better person from what I've heard. Good fortune and God speed to him on his NFL career.

Alex Collins will be missed. He's one of my all time favorites and I wish him the best.

The manner in which AC handled that situation reflects his character. He is a really good person.

in 3 years I never saw him toss a ball to a ref or drop it after a play was over. always handed it off, touchdowns included.

He's a class act and I believe Alex has the the ability to do very well in the NFL. He's a smart running back.

I think he'll be a steal in the draft

Anybody else expect Bielema to steal his paperwork declaring for the pros and flee before Collins could fax it in?




But, no, seriously, good luck to him. He was overshadowed by the Fournette/Henry hype but had an excellent year.

Edit: looks like someone else jumped on the joke first. I should learn to read through all the posts before adding my own.

Alex Collins is a monster. Was fun to watch for 3 years, besides last October 3rd.

Good luck to him.
