He's played in several games. He can't redshirt. The question will be how happy he is, but he'll likely start at one of the guar positions next year, likely LG.

Blackwell and T-Bob (thank God) are going to be gone next year, and he and Williford will take the guard spots. He'll then likely move over to tackle in 2013 when Hurst graduates.

T-Bob has been a huge factor for us on the line. His guard play is actually good. He had trouble at center last year. His versatility alone earns him the gratitude of Tiger fans. The hate he gets seems to come from people that don't recognize his contributions.
Hell he won us the Tenn game last year by snapping it.

This, he'll be a 3-year starter for us, and may be our Barrett Jones and start in several different positions. I could see him at LG next year, RT in 2013 and LT in 2014. He'll get himself a lot of money in the NFL draft if he plays well in all those positions. I hope Collins will be happy if he starts next year and beyond. Maybe he just wasn't happy with his playing time this year thus far (just playing in garbage time).
