TOO MANY unknowns remain to make an informed decision about what is happening to former LSU offensive lineman La'el Collins, who had been considered a likely top-20 pick in last week's NFL draft.

He might not be involved or have any knowledge concerning the April 24 shooting deaths of 29-year-old Brittney Mills and her unborn child.
