Thunder Collins Bio?

Nebraska running back Thunder Collins was sentenced to life in prison for his part in the slaying of a suspected drug dealer that he felt no remorse over the death.
This guy is going to spend the rest of his life in prison and he's only 30 years old. I'd like to read his bio. He was also given a total of 110 years on other counts in connection with the shooting that left Timothy Thomas dead, including attempted second-degree murder, assault and two weapons charges.

Thunder Collins Bio:

Thunder Collins is an exciting player to watch on the football field. He has speed, agility and big-play potential every time he touches the ball. Collins sat out spring camp after having surgery in January on his left shoulder, but he is healthy and enters his senior year ready to pair with fellow running back Dahrran Diedrick. The two seniors are a good complement to each other as Collins is tall, fluid and flashy, and Diedrick is big, strong and powerful. Both will be used extensively as the Huskers traditionally have utilized several backs.

Collins established himself as a dangerous weapon in Nebraska’s option attack in 2001. The I-back from Los Angeles, Calif., ranked third on the team with 647 rushing yards. Collins’ total trailed only Diedrick’s Big 12-leading 1,299 yards and Heisman Trophy winner Eric Crouch’s 1,115 rushing yards among the Huskers. Along with running ability, Collins proved himself an excellent receiver, ranking third on the team with 19 receptions for 189 yards. Collins had at least one catch in each of the last eight regular-season games. His 19 season receptions are the most by a Husker running back since I-back Lawrence Phillips had 22 receptions for 172 yards in 1994. He is tied for fifth among I-backs in season receptions and his 189 yards are the most by an NU running back since Jeff Kinney had 252 in 1971.

A serious big-play threat as either a runner or receiver, Collins uncorked a career-long 50-yard run at Baylor and added a career-best 45-yard reception against Kansas State. Collins owns one career start, coming at I-back in the season-opening win over TCU.

Collins rolled for a career-high 165 rushing yards as Nebraska racked up the second-best rushing total in school history with 641 yards against Baylor. He was one of four Huskers to go over 100 rushing yards on the day, joining Diedrick, Crouch and Judd Davies to tie an NCAA record. Collins had a career-high five receptions for 33 yards against Iowa State.

Thunder Collins is like many of his Nebraska predecessors at running back; sized well and fast. But unlike many in the Cornhusker backfield that played before him, Collins is an outstanding receiver and a viable threat when the ball is thrown in his direction.
