Rickie Collins is a three-sport star at Baton Rouge (La.) Woodlawn, playing football, basketball and baseball. But it has been on the football field where he has shined the most. As a junior, he was named District 5-5A Offensive MVP after throwing for nearly 2,000 yards and 16 touchdowns. “I like to call myself a hidden gem, a utility player because I can do it all,” Collins told BR Proud. His hobbies include cooking, taking pictures and working out. He is the son of Riketiuna Ruffin.
