Where are they now - Jason Collier

Jason is ready to prove himself - link here.

Collier will go the extra mile to stay in the lineup in Atlanta, where he starred his final two years of college at Georgia Tech after transferring from Indiana.

"It's great to be back here," said Collier, who was second-team All-ACC both seasons at Tech, averaging 17.1 points and 8.3 rebounds and who, as a senior, became the first Yellow Jacket to lead the conference in rebounding. "I wouldn't have it any other way. I went to school here, my wife and her family are from here, my father went to school down here. It's really an awesome treat."
Evidently Collier has really slimmed down, dropping 50 pounds in the off-season. Wow - that's a lot.
