Expert Analysis

Eliot Clough

Prep Redzone Scout

Over the weekend, Amos Collins Jr Amos Collins Jr 6'0" | 190 lbs | RB/ATH Sioux City East | 2027 State IA picked up his first Division I offer. Previously holding offers from Division 2 Sioux Falls and Black Hills State College, the Sioux City East junior received the offer from Drake.

A bully-ball runner, Collins uses his low center of gravity and powerful legs to bust through arm tackles, keeping his balance and chugging along to make the next would-be tackler miss. Quick in and out of cuts, affording him the opportunity to take a screen or a short run in the middle of the field for a 20+ yard score, Collins’ burst makes him a slippery runner that makes the Black Raider offense even more difficult to slow down.

As a junior, he took 99 rushes for 506 yards and four touchdowns, along with 11 catches for 103 yards and a touchdown through the air.

Rob Howe

Prep Redzone Lead Scout

Collins got his feet wet with 12 carries for the Black Raiders varsity in 2024. Thrusted into a bigger role this fall, he’s shined with more opportunity. Collins has carried 62 times for 367 yards (5.9 YPC). Showing off his versatility, he’s added six receptions for 60 yards and a touchdown. His Hudl page houses a highlight video from the Norwalk game, won by East, 23-13. The first clip has him scoring off a screen pass, when he makes a few guys miss and accelerates through traffic. Collins’ ability to stick his foot in the ground and quickly change directions stands out as does his burst. He can run with power and shows good vision.
