I'd say we're fourth in that race, mike.

As usual, if he takes an official, we got a chance.

For some reason I would rather have this kid over Ankrah, but we have a better shot at Ankrah.

Third at best, but agree that fourth is a distinct possibility.

Inexperienced defensive end getting big interest -- dailypress.com

Quote:

Collins, who has gained 50 pounds in the past two years, has garnered plenty of attention from colleges. He's considering offers from Virginia, Virginia Tech, West Virginia, Tennessee, Penn State, Illinois, Boston College, Maryland, North Carolina State and North Carolina.

If his summer visitation schedule can be used as any kind of indication, it may be hard to drag him out of Atlantic Coast Conference country. He went to camps or visited U.Va., Tech, N.C. State, Maryland, UNC and Penn State. He visited U.Va. on the weekend of Aug. 29 for the game against Southern California, but hasn't visited any other schools yet this season. He also went to a camp this summer at West Virginia with his teammates from the Stafford high school.
