Will Chris Collins stay at Northwestern?

To be fair, during that period it was Gragg that was the AD and hard to say he was a big fan of CCC. Plus other actions did not indicate he was at the top of the game. The extension was done after the first tourney run and it was one year later for the second and Gragg was sidelined so no one to push anything through. After this season was likely the first time it could be addressed by Jackson. That said, because of the injuries, it was a somewhat dissappoiting end, So while it likely should be done this offseason, hard to say whether it will be
It’s criminal that he doesn’t have 5+ years left on his deal. I’m sure that will be addressed promptly. That’s completely out of sync with the rest of the conference. I’m guessing in the next day or so, an extension will agreed and in place.

Barring a change in admission standards … though we could have made the second weekend last year with a healthy Berry and Nicholson imo.
Go look at the teams that have made Sweet 16 (or better) in recent years… St Peters, UMBC, FAU, SDSU, Florida Gulf Coast, Butler, many others. Any team in the field can make it to the second weekend.

Why is his contract only through 2028? Results from the last two seasons were great; I’d think he would’ve gotten extensions from that? Most Big Ten coaches have automatic extensions built in (e.g., get an extra year and $100k annual salary increase automaticallly triggered if a coach makes the sweet 16 or wins the conference). I’d think Collins would’ve at least triggered automatic extensions with an NCAAT berth?

It’s weird that his contract is down to 3 years remaining. That’s pretty unheard of in the big ten if a coach is successful and wanted.

Leaving now means our best ever recruiting class falls apart and we come to the cold realization than the Round of 32 at the NCAA's is our forever-ceiling as a program. A bitter pill indeed.

Fitz Suing NU Trial

I am sure he'll make a very credible witness in the Fitz trial! NU should just settle now and be done with this train wreck. I wonder if Schill is wondering to himself how in the world he could have been so dumb to give any credence to what this kid said.

The audio tape is the real smoking gun. Unfortunately its admissibility is obviously a big question. For anyone that has or will hear that tape, it’s case closed. Pure evil.

He's not staying forever. But I'm hopeful he gets a raise with a few more years tacked on so he can see this incoming recruit class through to Senior Night 2029. After that, I'd be more at peace with CCC leaving to chase a ring at a blue blood program.

Fitz Suing NU Trial

If you only knew @corbi296. It’s so much worse. I’ve heard rumors that Richardson has gone of the deep end even more (if that’s possible). Supposedly estranged from his family. He’s a sick young man. Unfortunately his actions have destroyed the lives of many. It’s truly a shame.

Those posts puts things into perspective. It makes more sense now that I know those two two are also bible thumping Chrstian psychos. Fricken lying hippocrates.
