re: Update on battle for 18

I am always unsure whether a offensive lineman can't have singles or teens. The NCAA rule book "strongly recommends" certain numbers for some positions, including offensive line.

Rule 1 Section 4 Article 1 recommends numbering as follows for offensive players;
Backs 1–49
Center 50–59
Guard 60–69
Tackle 70–79
End 80–99
"Strongly recommend" is different than "shall" or other mandatory language. And it's clear that other players at skill positions don't abide by their guidelines: (ie Dupre is #15, Beckham was 3, etc.)
Like I said, I don't know. There may be some other rule I don't know about, but I think it would be cool for Collins to get #18.
