And so ends the strangest UDFA saga in LSU history
Let's be clear about one thing first: this is not a happy ending. It's the best possible ending we probably could have gotten, but I still hesitate to call it a happy one. There is still a woman dead in Baton Rouge, and her killer is still at large. La'el Collins has done just about everything a human being can do to clear his name short of actually catching the killers himself, but he is finding out that one can't prove a negative. The cost of this lesson was his status as a first round draft pick and a few million dollars.
