I have faith in Golden, Lots of time before signing day. We don't have the luxury to offer Franklin.

Pete,

Suggest you make the thread title like this:

**** OFFICIAL ALEX COLLINS THREAD ****

I recommended to D-Moni you guys do this for every recruit we are chasing and consolidate threads. Makes the board a lot cleaner.
 
fug it...offer his boy. cant lose this kid. clear out some ****, bring in a fresh **** (Franklin) and get that beast in here

It's really tough to get a read on this situation. About a week ago, the coaches still didn't have a definitive answer from Collins, but were cautiously optimistic he was sticking. Then this whole Franklin thing came into the equation, which really complicates things. I know a lot of you guys don't think it has an effect on Collins, but these two are really close. Miami would probably be the better choice for him as far as carries go, but I can tell you that he is not afraid of competition AT ALL, which is great, but that kind of hurts Miami because that is the thing on their side even though he doesn't see it that way. He feels like he can beat anybody out.

I'll be honest with u the boy knows where to go to get carries and playing time. Whether he likes it or not hes not starting for fsu next year or maybe even the year after. They're way too stacked and there's a lot of bodies there. He's talented as **** and I want him on the team but if he dont wanna rep his hood then ride out bro. I'll take Chestnut, a kid who will wanna stay hometown and rep it hard. We got much bigger guys to chase after than ONE running back.
 
Y hasnt he decommit yet then. When is gonna let Golden know, or is he really gonna **** miami and say last minute.

If I were Jimbo, and if Alex is a Nole, I'd have him announce his switch the day of or day after the the Notice of Allegations are anounced. A strong 1-2 punch of bad news for UM.

He's coming to UM.

Enough of the nonsense.

based on what? just your sense in following recruiting? or you know something others dont? context clues point him to FSU. I dont think FSU would put themselves out on a limb with a mediocre talent unless they knew Collins was in tow. I dont think Collins would be "making a decision" if he was staying put. A current commit stating that "he's going to FSU" doesnt bode well either. That being said, if Collins still ends up here despite the FSU Franklin offer, its a double win for UM

Whatever boys. Lets not cry before the milk has been spilt. Lets see what happens. Maybe he just sticks here. Time will tell.
 
Golden needs to do whatever he can, including taking his buddy, to land Collins. Miami needs a stud workhorse back desperately. Especially when you consider our lack of depth next year. The majority of the guys we do have are small. Next to interior D linemen, Collins is the most important recruit in the class, even over the TEs.
 
Kids flip flop every cycle. There are plenty of RBs in FL every year.

I expect AG to stay on Collins until LOI is in regardless if he flips or not.

@Hegemon - just post the info, no one on RCT will care.
