There are rumors on the web that his couch is pushing him elsewhere

"See this here is a couch, and I can see why they call it that.

But this **** right here *****, this **** here *****, is a Love Seat.

I can't sit on it unless I'm in love."

Haha I was thinking more Rick James Dave chappelle though

Got that too lol



And to keep with the thread, if this kid has any sense of history and chance to succeed beyond college. He comes to Miami. Period

If anything this should let Golden know, not that he already doesn't, he has to keep the full court press on this kid.

 

[Canesfan1899]

And oh yeah I almost forgot, **** the NCAA for making us wait this ******* long. Make your decision already, realize you don't have **** and former players aren't going to roll and just give us a slap on the ******* wrist.

I can't believe I am saying this but if we hang on to Collins, missing out on Sony wouldn't be that bad.

I think the world of a healthy Sony and we are most likely going to land him, but this Collins kid, he is gonna be something else.

I could see a back looking at Duke and Collins and saying, maybe I need to look elsewhere.

Need to replace Collins with a quality back. Folston immediately comes to mind.

If Collins decommits then AJ Turman is a solid option. He ran for 267 and 3 TDs in his kickoff classic this year.

If he does decommit, then he needs to do it now. He doesn't have to declare, but I'm tired of NSD BS that has us scrambling and missing out on other top options.

It hasn't happened because Miami is where he wants to be. I would be sick to lose him but you can't blame the kid for taking his time.

Collins isn't on Sony's level. If I had to lose one an be guaranteed the other...the one I want carrying the rock is Sony. Be nice to get both here though.

Pre injury and pre 25 lbs of mass on Collins and I would have agreed with you. I think the gap is closing fast though.

Like I've said in other threads, until I see Sony sustain some success post-injury, I'm riding with Collins. Everyone realizes his best asset was inside-running and cutback ability, right? Then, he just so happened to run a 4.4+ at like 205 pounds...before his senior year of HS.

I'm right there with you. Sony is/was an absolute freak at his age, that's why he is so exciting. I mean the kid was ridiculously fast and 195 lbs as a frosh. You watch Collins highlights and he is knifing his way through the D at 175-180 lbs with ferocity. Now he is 200+ and still plenty fast.

I think we will have no trouble picking him ahead of Taylor and Green as the best backs in the state after this season. Its going to be huge.
