Early life and high school
McCollum was born on May 3, 1999.[1] His father Cory Carr had a stint with the Chicago Bulls basketball team and his twin brother, Zyon, also played defensive back with him through college.[2] They both attended Ball High School in Galveston, Texas, with Tristin being ranked a two-star recruit by 247Sports and the 40th-best player at his position in state.[3] They both initially committed to play college football for the Utah Utes, but later re-committed to Sam Houston.[3]
College career
As a true freshman at Sam Houston State University in 2017, McCollum appeared in 13 games, one as a starter, and totaled 30 tackles while being mostly a special teams player.[4] He started all 11 games for the team in 2018 and posted 48 tackles, 6.0 tackles-for-loss, 2.0 sacks and four pass breakups, being sixth on the team in tackles.[4] He played 12 games, five as a starter, in the 2019 season, tallying 49 tackles, a sack and an interception.[5] McCollum was part of the national championship team in the 2020–21 season, being named second-team All-Southland Conference while having 50 tackles and two interceptions.[4] He repeated as a second-team all-conference selection as a senior in 2021.[4] He finished his collegiate career with 229 total tackles, 12.0 tackles-for-loss, 4.0 sacks and three interceptions.[6]
