Collie Antonio Langham (born July 31, 1972) is an American former professionalfootball player who was acornerback in theNational Football League (NFL) for seven seasons. He playedcollege football for theUniversity of Alabama, and was recognized as anAll-American. Selected by theCleveland Browns in the first round of the1994 NFL draft, Langham also played professionally for theBaltimore Ravens,San Francisco 49ers, andNew England Patriots of the NFL.
Langham was born inTown Creek, Alabama. He graduated from Hazlewood High School in Town Creek.
Langham attended the University of Alabama, where he played for theAlabama Crimson Tide football team as adefensive back from 1990 to 1993. On the eventual1992 national championship team Langham, in his sophomore year, he returned an interception for a touchdown late in the 4th quarter of the1992 SEC Championship Game. As a junior in 1993, he was recognized as a consensus first-team All-American and would win theJim Thorpe Award as the nation's top defensive back. Later, however, he caused the Crimson Tide to forfeit most of its1993 season and sufferNCAA sanctions by signing with an agent during the previous offseason. Langham also signed and submitted an application to enter the1993 NFL draft, rendering him ineligible under NCAA rules, regardless of whether he had signed with an agent or not. The Crimson Tide's head coach,Gene Stallings, failed to inform both theSoutheastern Conference (SEC) and theNational Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) of Langham's draft application, or to declare Langham ineligible as required by NCAA rules. His ineligibility was revealed in late November 1993 and the University of Alabama eventually had to forfeit eight wins and a tie from the 1993 season.[1]
He still holds the Crimson Tide's team record for career interceptions with 19.[2]
