Mom Runs Off With Letter Of Intent
Arkansas Recruit Can’t Commit Because His Mother Ran Off With His Letter Of Intent
http://deadspin.com/5982166/arkansas...ium=socialflow There might be more to this. ESPN's Corey Long says the letter of intent was ready to go, but that Collins's mother absconded with it: "The papers are not there. I've been told by two different sources that Alex Collins' mom confiscated the papers and took off and ran with them. They are looking for her currently. From what I understand, Alex is not at the school right now, he is looking for his mom. She was quite torn up about him leaving." |

I swear, it didn't even register with me that this was another one of those Florida stories. |

Evidently he doesn't live with her. What an embarrassing situation for the young man.

mom is nuts and a helicopter parent.
Quit living through your son. There is a reason why they call it 'going away to college' forgot about the FLA thing. Way to go.

Sounds like he's going to sign with the Hogs tomorrow.
I can't imagine a mom being that ****ing selfish and inconsiderate as to do such a thing. What a headcase. It also, of course, raises red flags about his home life and possible stability issues. It doesn't matter too much in college, because people are going to recruit you regardless. If something like this happened in the pros, though, it would be sending serious bad vibes to the scouts. Anyway, I hope his mom comes to grips with it all, and their family isn't damaged too much from the incident.

No wonder she's pissed. She was probably standing to get paid a lot of money under the table if he went to Miami.
