One mother of a recruiting battle
Story on commit Landon Collins, favorite part of the article.
COLLINS KNEW HE wanted to play for Alabama when he saw the Tide beat Florida 31-6 in Tuscaloosa his junior year. "I just felt the love when I got there," he says. "I stepped on the field and it just felt ... big."

Good story.
Seems like a good kid. I hope his mom comes around and learns to love Alabama as much as he does. (And for goodness sake, don’t let him break up with that GF!)
God bless our Dark Lord.
Her complaint about Saban saying her son would be a top draft pick
reminds me of the baby in Jimmy Fallon’s commercial. “Who doesn’t want more money?”
God bless our Dark Lord.
She obviously had her mind made up that she was going to be offended no matter what.
If “your son will be rich” qualifies as “stereotyping”, she just wasn’t going to come out happy.

I was pissed off at her behavior.
This article puts the event in context.

Now I don’t know what to think.
