When it comes to in-state schools recruiting 6-foot-5 Clay-Chalkville standout receiver Nico Collins, Alabama appears to have an edge over Auburn at the moment.

The four-star recruit said at Nike Football's The Opening Atlanta Regional that he had a top six in no order, including Michigan, Clemson, Georgia, Alabama, Florida State and Ole Miss.

"With Alabama, I have a former teammate that went down there with T.J. (Simmons)," Collins said. "Everything about them just seems pretty cool. When you go down there, you'll win."

Collins shined at the camp, earning an invite to the prestigious Opening Finals this July in Beaverton, Ore.
