January 7, 201214 yr I read that this morning, and the idea that she didn't know in advance is ridiculous to me. She knew. You could see it in her demeanor leading up to his announcement. Don't blame the kid for not having worked it out with his mom.
January 7, 201214 yr Saw this last night, seems really strange since he said his mom has always been a Bama fan and she didn't even talk to him for a couple days afterwards. Almost sounds like mom was some how losing out on something by her son choosing Bama....

Almost sounds like mom was some how losing out on something by her son choosing Bama.... Seems like she's way more of a LSU fan to me. They're from Louisiana and she was wearing a LSU colored shirt underneath her blouse.
January 7, 201214 yr Verbal only...February 1st when it really counts, they may have wanted some TV time. His girlfrind will be attending Alabama. Or is already enrolled. Mark Barren All American safety for Bama is a senior.
January 9, 201214 yr That's one of those just keep your mouth shut situations. Your son is going to college, be happy. She ruined a big event for her kid.

Don't blame the kid for not having worked it out with his mom. With the Stacey Poole situation, you had said his dad should have final say over where he goes to school. Do you feel the same in this situation?

January 9, 201214 yr Wow! I agree! Even though I think a lot of times these verbals are ONLY for hype! I think someone just withdrew a deposit from mom's account... :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

January 29, 201214 yr Author Updated story from ESPN the Mag on the situation that led up to this. http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/7492921/ncf-alabama-bound-safety-landon-collins-picked-tuscaloosa-lsu-mother-dismay-espn-magazine?eleven= Mama ain't with Coach Saban nor the girlfriend of her son.
January 29, 201214 yr With the Stacey Poole situation, you had said his dad should have final say over where he goes to school. Do you feel the same in this situation? We are still waiting your response Rockmom. It sure seems you feel the boy has the right to pick his college in this situation.
