On Monday, five-star running back Alex Collins committed to Arkansas. Today, he was supposed to announce his decision and sign his papers in his hometown of Fort Lauderdale, Florida. But this afternoon, he’s canceled that ceremony in order to take more time to think about his future.
But this is where it gets even more interesting (horrible, if you’re a Razorback fan). ESPNU reported that Collins’ mom actually “confiscated” her son’s letter of intent and left the school with it. Reportedly, she wants Collins to say closer to home and attend Florida, Florida State or Miami.
You can bet a whole lot of fans — and coaches — are sweating this one from the Ozarks to the Keys.
“Dog eat your homework?” “Nope, Mom stole my letter of intent.”
