So what? Most every guy has gone through that at some point in his life. He hasn't hurt his opportunity to do something great by choosing Bama at all. In fact the exposure Bama is getting is at an all time historical high. The only thing hurt by him being Bama, are the feelings of LSU fans and momma.
Too bad, so sad.

It wouldn't even be much of a story, were it not for his momma and the nutcase LSU fans who can't stop obsessing over it.

If this kid blossoms and ends up in the NFL in 4-5 yrs, it will be interesting to see how quickly Mom has her hand out.

I don't give two shits if he's at Bama or not. I hope he did it for the right reasons and not just to follow a girl. If what his mom says is true that he and his brother had wanted to play ball together at LSU and he traded that for a girlfriend's wishes then its a bitch move but also his life.

Why is following a girl such a horrible thing to do? This chick may be the best thing that's ever happened to him. Any reasonable fan knows that in terms of football program, Alabama and LSU are on the same level. So, if there's really no drop-off either way, why is following a girl such a bad thing?

COLLINS KNEW HE wanted to play for Alabama when he saw the Tide beat Florida 31-6 in Tuscaloosa his junior year. "I just felt the love when I got there," he says. "I stepped on the field and it just felt ... big." His dad was with him on that trip and on all of his visits, acting as his lead adviser. He was the one who returned coaches' phone calls when his son was busy or disinterested and hosted them in his home. He was the one who helped his son break down the pluses and minuses of all his suitors and made sure he wasn't being overwhelmed by the attention.

LC has stated in many interviews that he and his brother had no intentions on playing for the same team. He has, also, stated that he has been all Bama for >2 yrs. How long have he and Victoria been together? He decision to go to Bama may have influenced her to go there.

ok? what are you getting at? He's not following the girlfriend? You'll have your opinion and I'll have mine. Good luck to him. Hope the Bama boys we are recruiting can be better players than him. (Elston and Kwon)

Of course, mom has proven to be an unbiased, objective source for the LC recruitment.

#littlemansyndrome

you guys are pretty fricking insecure about this guy's recruitment. you guys got him. Hopefully if we get Elston he's better than Collins. We've had some damn good luck with DBs who weren't highly regarded coming out. Good luck to Landy Cakes.

OK so let's say they break up 6 months after he gets to Bama. Is his life fricked up? Is he screwed for choosing bama?

My opinion, of course not. At the end of the day he plays for a very good program. Family relationships have turbulence through life, and this will not be a detriment to his family. You finish your schooling, and if lucky and as good as advertised, enter the draft in 3 years. Life goes on.

Insecure? Are you for real? This thread (and multiple others regarding LC) have been nothing but temper tantrums for LSU fans.

Why don't you just go ahead and say it out loud. Any kid from LA that chooses to leave the state to play college football (whatever the reason) is committing nothing less than treason and is purposefully stabbing each and every resident of the state in the back.
