I live 2 hours from U of Ark area (work reasons) and believe that when Collins sees the area it won't even be close. Haven't any of y'all seen the interviews with 6? Every time he talks Miami he has a big smile on his face. Don't see that when talking about any other school, including FSU. 247 was reporting that Dee Liner had high interest in Miami. Any truth to that?

Alex Collins situation is VERY strange.

I can understand recruits being pulled by 2 different schools 2-3 weeks from NSD, but truly being undecided there are outside influences messing with him.

Its very obvious he is giving Bret Bielema a chance for "some reason".

High school coaches need to understand that
1. college football is not the NFL and you are not guaranteed the kid a contract or playing time.
2. College coaches have a better idea of what to do with the talent vs a high school coach (hence the job title)

I was hoping for a much better news on AC over this weekend but only few more weeks!

He wants to start as a true freshman. But he is realizing that there is no team that will just hand a player a starting position. There is competition
Every school he is looking at would have a competition to see who starts in 2013.
This is not a knock on Collins as I would do the same thing. I would go to a program in the power 6 conferences that offer the most playing time. The game is different these days 5* and 4* players are willing to sit for 2-3yrs instead of play. Its like man I came to college to play not ride the bench. That's also why I don't get why 5* dlineman are not salivating at the opportunity Miami could give them after last season. idk if he realizes that duke isn't a every down back so there would be ample opportunity for playing time here.

What would your position be if we were stacked? It goes both ways. You come to compete. That's what made Miami so great. You truly have to work hard every day or you will be passed.
 
There is a brutal cold front that is going to sweep the country this weekend. Any recruits on OV's elsewhere will likely encounter sub freezing and even sub zero temperatures. Good timing for us.
 
I think we'll know before signing day whether Thomas is coming. I think he is, but I would feel better about that if he took an official visit to UM. And yes, we all know he's visited UM unofficially many times. Different kids have different personalities so it's hard to say how Arkansas being - well - Arkansas will affect Collins. I think that someone in his inner circle is putting pressure on him to go somewhere other than UM. Latest that I've read around here is that Dee Liner is planning to attend school in the SEC - I think someone here suggested Alabama.

I hope I'm wrong, but the Gatewood-Bielema connection has me thinking AC is going to end up at Arkansas.

It's always good timing for Miami. I've never understood how BC convinces anyone to play here with a visit in January. It's colder than a witches ****y and likely to stay that way until April.

Looks like local papers have him all but signed with Bama.
