Collins (#5) Arrested and Dismissed from Texas
Texas junior Brandon Collins has been dismissed from the football team after being arrested and charged with aggravated robbery and engaging in organized criminal activity . Collins is using a redshirt this year and hasn’t played in any of the team’s football games this season. Collins was ruled academically ineligible for this season which forced Texas to burn a redshirt season on him. Before the academic suspension, Collins was expected to assume the #2 receiver role opposite of Jordan Shipley.
I’m no fortune teller, but it looks as if Collins’s career with the ‘Horns is over. It’s a shame whenever situations like this occur. These young men receive the opportunity of a lifetime only to throw it away my making bad decisions. Hopefully Collins will use this as a lesson learned and make something of himself.
