Read any LC thread, 99% of the thread will be illogical hate. Offering a ban bet on Hootie having a better career before he's played his senior year makes no sense.
Yet a good bit of the posters in this thread are trying to make it seem like Hootie is a scrub compared to Collins.
I think Collins will be great, but I also think that Hootie has more potential than any other safety in this years class. Which is a really big deal considering how stacked the DB class is this year.

LC has range and could play corner if he wanted to, you honestly believe LC doesn't have as quick of feet and hips as Hootie? Come on.
It's obvious. Look at their highlights again.
Plus the fastest shuttle he's run is a 4.2, while his average is higher. He would have trouble in close coverage on great receivers. That's why most of the time he played 5-10 yards off the receiver, while Hootie is in press coverage a good bit of the time. The difference between them is not much at all.
I'm just pissed people are acting like Hootie is a JV player compared to Collins. Both will be beasts, but at the same point in their careers I give the edge to Hootie.

No a good bit of the posters are aware of the type of prospect LC was. Nobody is calling Hootie a scrub.

No need to, I've seen both plenty. LC could play corner.

Shuttle doesn't make or break a defensive back. I don't understand why you act like that says if you can be a good defensive back or not.
There's also nothing to say Hootie runs a faster shuttle than LC to begin with.
