I personally don't want LC anymore. After that stunt last night

Good riddance. It's one thing to play the game and have fun

With it. You don't string out your home team. Bottom line is,

If he knew two years ago he shouldnt have played it this way.

I have never seen anything so uncomfortable in my life.

Being a parent, I can understand his mom and dads

Frustration with their son. The girlfriend appears to be

Manipulating their son with her vagina. There is NOTHING

That bama can offer him that LSU can't except a girlfriend

That he probably won't be with anyway. Actually LSU and

Bama are equal in terms of academics and facilities. Where

LSU offers more is the chance to be close to home,play

On a team with his best friends,and give his family and

Friends the opportunity to see him play

I thought it was weird he claimed New Orleans as his home during the announcement.

It was definitely the weirdest announcement I have ever seen. It would have been nice to have him in the class, but since he is a safety I don't think it is as bad as it could have been.

Make up your minds...

A. He knew for 2 years and "strung LSU along", which means his girl followed him. (What he says)

B. He is following his girl to Bama.


Answer my question.

If the girl were going to LSU, where do you think Collins would be going?

Yea, obviously she needed that free ride to Bama since her family is so poor.

Seriously though, her family is LOADED and she could have paid her way to Bama.

1. I agree he should have committed early if knew that far in advance. I feel that the Bama PR dept coached him on how to handle that to maximize Bamas exposure and recruiting momentum.

How good is that to sit in a corners living room and say he hasn't announced it yet but we will have LC back there over the top. you will have a great defense for the next 3-5 years come to bam a.

2. His family wasn't happy. it was clear and it was not an act.

3. I don't feel he led LSU staff along. he has the right to listen he did grow up around LSU. Why not explore options and plus it actually is good that he listened to LSU staff never know what could happen and he may change his mind. He could have committed and been closed minded about the and shut CLM out. I feel he is solid but you never know.

4. The only thing he did wrong was wear his state on his chest like he was proud of it. Then did this. Why even go out and be proud of something you are abandoning. Plus the way he corrected the announcer was cool but it showed very little class. When he did that I said Uh oh were in trouble..

5. The person LSU fans should mad at the The Mods and LSU pundits. It has been rumored for years that he was in love with Bama. The Mods and sites did everything they could to keep us watching and up there subs. That crap yesterday with pay 9.95 and get it was horse shite. They didn't have anything and they know it. But by keeping you tuned in everything went up. Advertisers and social media.


people who are mad are mad at themselves because we were filled by our own people who we trust to give us privy information not the Kid. If he had been shooting of LSU stuff it would be different but i can't blame him for listening and thinking about to make sure it right.

You're just a fan too and you do not know his reasons for picking Bama, besides the reasons he stated himself. Why suggest otherwise?


Because his reasons don't pass the smell test.

He's going to Bama because of the players? Everyone here says Dwyane Thomas & Debo Jones are his childhood best friends.

Come on man connect the dots,

Girlfriend. Scholarship. Bama.


Or maybe he just likes the suits that Mark Ingram and Julio wear.

He said his main reason for choosing Bama was because of the coaches and that it felt like home.

I hate to say it, but LSU fans are sounding like a bunch of butthurt little bitches.

I wanted LC as much as anyone, but it's his life and his decision.

So he says he was thinking Bama 2 years ago...so what. Obviously his family wanted LSU, which is probably why he left it open for so long. He could have wanted Bama, but still be undecided because he may have decided to go to LSU to keep mama happy.

The funny thing is that I can remember situations where an oos kid stayed home because of mama and we convinced ourselves that the kid wanted LSU but mama won. Of course, we bitched about that also.

Cheer up Tiger fans. We're about to win the national championship and be the only 3-time BCS champion. Life is good.

Right, it feels like home cause his girlfriend is there.

I honestly have no problem with him going there cause of his girlfriend or even wanting to make a public spectacle over it.

Just don't bullshite me with bullshite cause I can always smell it from a mile away.

If you couldn't see this kid is trying to get as far away as possible from his meddling, over-bearing mother...you weren't watching very closely.

Well lets not talk about stuff we don't know.

We don't know the dynamics of his personal life and no mod or insider can prove that. We should ban all disbarring remarks about Mom and GF.

It is clear that she followed him to Bama not the other way around.

ETA: In 3 years LC will be worth millions i seriously doubt she pulled rank and convinced him to go where she wanted. I bet she would have loved to stay close to her family as well.
