  • David Collins' age

    Anyone notice that David Collins is 22 years old? That's about 2 years older than most college juniors. In fact, he's older than Crouch and Singh (who would be a senior without all the injuries). Only Dan Ruffin is older. Hopefully this means he plays like a man among boys, because against some of the league's post players, he will be literally playing against 18 and 19 year old kids.

    David Collins (4) Center -     Personal Full Name:  David Andrew Collins Birthdate:  July 6, 1985 Birthplace:  Toronto, Ontario, Canada Parents:

    I really think Collins, along with Austin, will be huge difference-makers for the team this year!

      Anyone know why David is so old? Was he in high school until he was 20 when he was in Canada?

        This is nothing....Drake had a juco recruit a few years ago who was 23 when he got to Drake. Didn't help him at all....he scored 1 point in his career.

          David is the age he is because he was born in 1985.

          Just Kidding, I don't know why he's older than your average junior in college.

            "A Toronto native, Collins comes to Bradley by way of Missouri-West Plains junior college. Collins spent three years there, including a redshirt season. The 7-footer had 51 blocks last season...and shot sixty percent from the floor."

            I guessing he was the definition of the word 'project' when he came out of high school in Canada.

                I'm not saying it's a bad thing. I was just curious if there was any rhyme or reason as to why he was old for a junior.
