Another Austin Collie Thread

Discussion for professional sporting events/teams and players.

This would be a great place to discuss the Super Bowl, the NBA Playoffs or whatever else.

Another Austin Collie Thread

Post by Matty-B »

Love this guy! Has all the potential in the world and everything is lined up for him to be the best BYU-produced NFL player since Steve Young IMO.

A couple articles that are giving him the props he deserves:

" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

A couple other interesting tid-bits:
* Of Austin Collie’s 171 receiving yards, 79 were gained after the catch.
* Peyton Manning to Austin Collie has yielded ridiculous numbers this season. On 32 targets, Manning’s connected with Collie on 27 passes for 11.2 yards per attempt with four touchdowns and a passer rating of 153.0.

I've heard he actually talks about the Church a lot with his NFL teammates. Good for Collie.

His little brother (Dylan) has an offer from Utah already. I'm not sure if BYU has officially offered yet or not.

Utah stands as much chances as getting little Collie as they do Nick Emery or anyone related to Max Hall... Also right now, Dylan is quite a bit behind where Austin was developmentally, but still worth a scholarship and a worthy legacy player.

I think you're spot on with both comments. He's certainly not the best WR on his high school team, but there's potential. Even Zac Collie made the NFL... for a few days.

Zac makes our current receivers look like pop warner.
