Collin Saring’s Long Road Back
We ended last week’s episode with the night that sent current Gulf Coast Fire QB Collin Saring to the hospital. The night that changed the course of his life forever.
But after finally waking up from a coma, his mind reverted back to a childlike state. He spent months recovering: group therapy, speech therapy, physical therapy, everything.
By the time he felt back to normal, his life came crashing down on him again. Clinically depressed and weighing 305 pounds, he knew he had to dig deep to make a change.
In part two of our interview, Collin Saring discusses the grueling recovery process and how he picked up the pieces to sign his first professional football contract.
