Alex Collins finally signs with Arkansas

[Dwinstitles]

Reality if Collins wanted to be a cane this was his chance. He wants to be in arky. I don't want a kid who has his mommy forcing him to be there. Again he doesn't want to be here. Move on.

He probably does thats the thing

There is more than one way to skin a cat.

[dfagundo]

I found something interesting during ESPN's coverage yesterday. Dooley and Chizik were talking about just doing whatever to get the thing signed. They weren't concerned with who signed it, but as long as that person was qualified to sign the kid over, it seemed like they were down. I don't find it to be just happenstance that both of those guys are from the SEC and that's how they do it down there.

This man (collins dad) is someone that Beilema has probably never even met, but he's down with him signing the LOI. I wonder if Beilema has ever even met his mom.

She didn't go on the visit. Collins doesn't live with her. I would say it isn't likely.

Collins lives with her.

No he doesn't. Unless something changed very recently.

Everything thinks he lives with his coach, but many people have said he moved out of there (and back in with his mom?) last summer. His brother has even talked about how he has been coming home at night.

It changed over the summer. He moved back in with her during the summer.

I completely disagree with this, kid is elite. If we can land him, I will take him anyway possible

 

[Oh Snap]

First time I've seen him in an interview. Odd dude.

 

[BigPoopaCane]

MAMA COLLINS IS GONNA TAKE DADDY COLLINS ON MAURY NOW

 

[pook187]

Dude is all Razorback. He wants to be there. He just did an interview with Jim Berry and unless he's received some kind of CIA brainwashing, he doesn't want to be here.

So let's settle that.

Announcement happening in half an hour:

"Meanwhile, the Broward schools district says Collins will announce his college choice at 1:30 p.m. today at a Plantation restaurant."

According to Herald

it was also happening at 11, 1, 1:15 and now 1:30.. people are just throwing out times. pretty sure an announcement isn't coming for a while now that there are lawyers involved

Where did you read the announcement was happening at 11, 1, and 1:15? IIRC, this is the first time anything about the new announcement has been published (http://www.miamiherald.com/2013/02/07/3221997/alex-collins-family-hires-lawyer.html). If I'm wrong I'll go kick rocks, but this announcement is happening sooner rather than later.

Lawyers getting involved doesn't necessarily mean anything; just because AC's mom wants him to stay home, doesn't mean she is going to get her wish. AC has other methods of submitting a valid LOI (via Father as per Steve Gorten report) so the lawyers might simply delay the inevitable

not attacking your post just saying that all morning on twitter people have been saying he was signing at those times

lol dad got payed

 

[Oh Snap]

Is that Bokamper's?

 

[VACane]

Did Gatewood eat the table after AC signed?

Did Gatewood eat the table after AC signed?

He ain't there. I would imagine he's trying to keep an EXTREMELY low profile right now.

 

[USNAVYCANE]

dad looks like hes got those drunk sweats

 

[rudebuddha]

His dad looked like he signed it by just making an "x"

 

[Joecane]

I hope he is really, really good for Arkansas' sake, because Momma Collins is going to put them on blast.
