  • Summary

  • Cecil Collins may be one of the biggest "what if" stories in LSU football history. Collins attended Leesville High School in Leesville, Louisiana. There, he amassed 99 touchdowns and 7,833 yards over his high school football career including 3,079 yards during his senior season. Leesville was the 4A state runner-up that year and Collins was selected as Louisiana's very first "Mr. Football". Collins enrolled at LSU, where he would redshirt his freshman season. Collins only played in only four games for the Tigers in 1997, yet many LSU fans consider him one of the best running backs in program history nearly 30 years later. After one season at McNeese and one season in the NFL with the Miami Dolphins, the former LSU standout ran into a series of poor decisions off the field, which eventually landed him in prison for 13 years. Now, the man once known as “Cecil The Diesel‘’ is a changed man who has devoted his life to God looking for a second chance.
