Well, whoever it was, he obviously doesn't know anything about pride or loyalty...

There is this new thing called Google. You just type landon collins 2012 University of Alabama stats and you will see amazing things.

BTW you can use that to look up the meaning of the word, moron.

He wasn't. I confused him with someone else and edited my post.

i thought was a legitimate question. He never implied collins wasnt good or going to be good just do you you believe he was as good as advertised.

Usually number one ranked players find a way to the roster. This doesnt mean he wont be great.

Loston at LSU was top ranked but it took him a while too and maybe Loston wont live up to expectations. maybe Collins wont. he just asked the question.

I'm not talking about the fact he left. I'm talking about how he acts as a person.

Absolutely. Those freshman on LSU you're talking about wouldn't have started on a team as talented as Bama this year either. Collins has made big plays on special teams, looked good in mop up duty, and by all accounts, been pushing for a starting spot all year in practice. He will definitely start in Lester's spot next year. He's a supreme athlete. The Bama staff could not be happier to have him, and it's safe to say, he couldn't be happier with the choice he made.

And what is it you have a problem with exactly? So far, all I can come up with is that he didn't go to LSU.

It was the way he did it. He led our coaches on to believe that we had a legitimate shot of landing him, then went on to say he had decided about 2 years before his announcement.

Kwon was definitely the top player in the state of Alabama before he was injured in high school. FWIW

Why are you so concerned about our roster? Surely y'all have some players waiting on a nickname?


Nope. Just waiting on some guy named Bane to commit.

I would love to see him in P & G, but at least the man stuck to his commitment.

Probably a pretty smart thing he decided to not be let it known he was going to Bama before he did, can't imagine the nasty vile things the trashy LSU fans would have put him through during his HS years.

But your statment isn't completely accurate. LSU had a legitimate shot at signing him, even if he had like Bama for 2 years+. Fact is you have no idea what kind of a person he is nor have you ever had any first hand experience with him to back up your pathetic shot at him. Be a man and admit the real and only reason you don't like him is he signed with Bama.
