- ALT1: "... that Tank Collins' mother forced him to play basketball as a child and would often play him in games of one-on-one?" Jrcla2 (talk) 18:12, 16 October 2011 (UTC)

- ALT2: ... that "Tank" Collins was forced by his mother to play basketball to get over the death of his father and went on to become the American South Conference Men's Basketball Player of the Year?
