Great interview with Alex Collins about differences between his rookie camp and this year. 

Last year Alex was 214 lbs and now he's down to 205.  I wonder if he's picked up any speed....

AC hasn't forgotten who his people are.  He got in a "Go Hogs" during the interview.

Us acquiring E. Lacy has me a bit nervous about Collin's place on the team this year.  I was so thrilled when Seattle drafted him.  All reports I hear is he's an outstanding teammate.  He made some big plays for us down the stretch but our OL was patchwork at best.  Sometimes when Alex came into the game it was in situations where we weren't making any holes up front.  We've made some moves in the offseason to try and improve the OL.  Hopefully Alex gets another chance to show what he can do when he doesn't encounter defenders in the backfield. 

Alex caught some passes from Wilson too.  The knock on Alex was he was inexperienced catching passes out of the backfield.  He just needs some more touches and I'm sure he will be alright. 

If Seattle cuts him and puts him on the practice squad I expect another team will snatch him up.

What a good dude he is.

one of my all time face hogs too.I have always had a lot of respect for the kid after the way he handled his signing day nightmare.

[PorkRinds]

Who are your other face Hogs?

[The Hawg Marshal]

Are face Hogs in basketball too or does it only refer to football?

[flagstaffhog]

Go HOGS Go!

[Justagp]

Such a great guy!

[1highhog]

What the heck is a face hog?

[FraggleHog]

Can't listen to the interview right now, so don't know the context of the situation. Are you sure it wasn't a "Go Hawks " as in Go Seahawks? I know a couple of years ago Russell Wilson said "Go Hawks" and some on here thought he said Go Hogs since Coach B is now at Arkansas.

[FraggleHog]

What the heck is a face hog?

Pretty sure he meant to say Fave Hog.

Yeah, I listened to it several times and the first time through I thought it was "Go Hogs"...but mostly because I am not familiar with "Go Hawks".  When I listened a couple more times, I think it's definitely "Go Hawks".  Makes more sense in the context of the conversation. 

Great interview by a guy that is really sincere and selfless.  Hope he becomes a star.  Outstanding ambassador for the Hogs.

May face hog live on in hogville history.

I ain't scare of face hog.

[The Hawg Marshal]

I think it is safe to assume that" face hog" will now permanently  be part of the vernacular around here.

I think he says "Go Hogs."  They were talking about him being drafted.

Yeah, like I said earlier at the time I couldn't listen to the interview so couldn't hear the context that it was stated in. Now that I've had a chance I definitely agree. He said Go Hogs

...well, maybe we should add a dash of Tanner English, a mysterious amount of Vin Ascolese, and a "Gruden's Tie" to the mix? You know, to at least help bump it on to 2 pages.

Is he anyone's face poster?

Maybe that would get it to 10-12 pages!
