Collins visiting Arkansas on the 25th

I believe al practices what he preaches. Play till the whistle, work harder than next man. I am sure no matter what a recruit does his feelings aren't hurt by said recruit. His has his targets and will pursue with 100% effort until said recruit signs dotted line. Of course this is my opinion but sure seems it is his approach

Duke isn't a 25 carry/game RB. Collins can come in here and play as much as he would at Arkansas. I'm sure there are some RBs on that roster, and Brett Bullsh1t will sign a couple this cycle.

Everyone says that about duke but the kid absolutely carried his team to state title getting 25+ i know this is much tougher competition but lets not act like he's a special back that can't be counted on for 25 plus. kid can do it all

You cant compare HS football to college ball. The hits are much worse and take a toll on you throughout a season. Duke will probably be running kickoffs back again as well. You can run him into the ground with no back up

I adopt these words as my own.

One need merely look at last season to realize Duke is not yet built for high level FBS pounding at a 25 carry/game clip. He might get there eventually, but his body isn't ready for that yet. I think you diminish his effectiveness if you ax him to carry the ball that much. I'd like to see him at 15-20 carries per.

Collins may go to Fayetteville and love it or may hate it. However, they are doing a $125 million dollar renovation on an already premium stadium and indoor facility. And dont be kidding yourselves, with the SEC machines, they all have foundations, which is a slick word for money raising slush fund for football players. With Arkansas in particular, its the Red Razorback and Big Red Foundation, of which, my parents were members for many, many years and its a much slicker operation these days.

Anyhoo, Collins is no shoe in to love or leave the pig sooie. Midwest cats tend to be dazed and confused in Miami and the reverse is also true. But he could be a silent redneck who likes hunting, fishing, and camping/hiking. He will also be a big fish in a small pond who will worship his sweat laden jockstrap.

Gotta love recruiting, long as he doesn't give the gratuitous academic spiel.

I honestly don't care how big Duke, Collins, or any other back we have is or how much wear and tear they can take. I don't want any back getting 25+ carries a game. F that. Let guys like Spurrier run their backs into the ground. I want to get back to the days were we could keep hitting teams with fresh doses of bad news from the backfield.
