LEAD BALLOON: Top Louisiana Football Recruit Landon Collins Chooses Alabama On National TV, And His LSU Fan Mother Trashes The Decision Immediately Afterward – Deadspin
Wow! That video is amazing and revealing and at the same time, quite revealing. It was clearly visible from her body language at the beginning that his choice was known before hand. She was probably hoping that in the glare of the television klieg that he would defer to her wishes. We will probably never know the whole story behind what caused her to react that way.(I can venture to guess) I don’t believe she intended any real malice but, dis appointment was palpable.At some point you would hope that she will respect and support his decision. She will never get that moment back and thats unfortunate for both of them. Lets hope this plays itself out for the better, His loyalty to Louisiana and his family should not be measured by what college he choses, you would hope they would applaud his having achieved the opportunity at all. Unfortunately as is the case most often these days the father was conspicuously absent in this video.
