She was clearly pissed but she didn't have to say anything or wave the gloves in his face. It brings negative attention to what should be a big day for her son.
The whole family was pissed. It looked like they couldn't wait to get off of that stage.

I wouldn't let my son go to a rival of LSU period

I'd let my son go where he wanted, he has his High School Diploma and is free to shape his own life and I sure wouldn't let the fact that I'm a fan of a colleges' sports program even enter into the equation of what's best for my sons future. Be happy that he's going to college instead of getting some menial minimum wage job

Although she was asked directly why she looked unhappy, she probably could have been a little supportive on camera.

Why would a mom having a want for her son to be closer to home make her crazy?

I think any parent would be pissed knowing their son was thinking with his dick on such a big decision. I know I would be.

Ifound it rather sad and distasteful, both the reactions of the family AND ESPN

This is strange. When your family don't want you to go to Bama, why announce on national TV? He could have committed on signing day or any day before.

He didn't exactly look excited about it. Maybe it is because he knew his family would react that way, or that it was really hard to turn away from your home school.

Either way it's more of a loss for him than LSU because we can make just about any DB a top NFL pick, Nick has trouble making 5 Star DB's top NFL picks

Naah, Bama boosters have that covered now. If she shuts her trap they'll prolly pay hers too.

It should've been a group decision from the start, other posters have stated they don't live together, so maybe she wasn't part of the group that makes the decisions. I find it hard to believe this kid just up and decided last night to go to Bama without the support of the major influences in his life.

Some ignorant people on Yahoo!
It seems she wasn't all that crazy, but spoke her mind. To hear them, she jumped up in his grill and screamed at him. But it seems she was subdued, just not in favor, and likely quite surprised by the decision.

Girlfriend loved it though, from the look of it.
Idiots can't even interpret what they're watching. Must educate and TD the comments on Yahoo!
Do Work.

He probably knows at LSU he has more talent in front of him that he does at Bama.

LC and his mom should have worked thiat out ahead of time. If she couldn't be supportive she should not have been on the stage.

Collins is a treasonous, disloyal liar. He lied to his own family and to the LSU coaches. I wouldn't doubt that he did so at the behest of Saban, who has employed this modus operandi previously (e.g. Jamarcus Russell). I hope he has a miserable, unremarkable college career and ends up dealing yeyo to Saban's coke fiend son.

I can't stand sedition, especially when it is accompanied by blatant prevarication. Little liar.

Worse yet, he's pussy whipped at the age of 18. That's just sad.

I wonder what Wendell Hudson got from the athletic department for giving an Alabama schollie to a girl with South Alabama talent just to lure LC. If he pulls a switch and signs his letter to LSU on NSD, he may have single-handedly screwed Bama in both football and girl's basketball.
