Some things are so obvious in hindsight: they bought all the HS hype on Collins. Thats why they landed him in the portal. He got to camp, and the coaches, and Pena all realized he wasn’t going to cut it. The staff knew the other guys were development guys, not ready to play. They missed on him, just like every school who offered him. (Are people really surprised HCFB didn’t announce to the world that Collins stinks, so we are QB shopping?)
They went out and got Angeli. Problem solved. Then he got hurt. Problem resurfaced.
