Andy Katz. Knowledge. Rumor or Just Pro Collins

Said last night Collin’s could leave for a major power five opening.

Was that said because we need to lock him up or is there smoke and fire out there?

Wildcat fans want to know.

I think it's all speculation at this point but Collins could be tempted now that his kids are all settled and the Collins family has an empty nest. I'm a little worried with all the openings out there. But would Brian James follow him? That might be the key to having CCC stay.

If Collins was super savvy, then perhaps this is a well placed advert to remind folks that he's doing a heckuva coaching job. However, I just see it more as Andy Katz hyping him up, as I'm sure there's deep affinity there as well. Agreed with Cataria - this is just speculation, but if you're Collins agent - it's not bad to have out there.

He’s the anti-PWB.

He's being mentioned as one of the prospective candidates on a long list for the IU job. I'm sure there will be more. When does his current deal expire?

He is a Chicago area and suburbs guy. Going to Bloomington might be a hard bridge to cross

Katz trying to stir the pot here. Collins isn’t going anywhere.

Agree that this is Katz propping up Collins on his own.

I don’t see Collins going anywhere, but I never say never. Shit’s weird sometimes and surprised you.

 

[Davidgolds5]

A move by collins would be pretty devastating. He had a long term deal I believe, but maybe it would be wise to consider sweetening it a little bit.

 

[Baz=Heisman]

Collins would only leave for Duke, in terms of college jobs. Not too worried. If we make the NCAAT next year again he will get another extension.

There are no certainties in life, but I am 100% certain that Chris Collins will not be the next coach at Indiana. There are a million reasons for this, but the first is that I don't think Collins has much interest in that job.

2028

If 2028, wouldn't it be best to extend him now for recruiting purposes?

 

[SimpsonElmwood]

The messaging in the Katz clip was most certainly planted by an agent or PR firm. Why wouldn’t Collins want to extend more years?

Jackson might initiate something, but NU as an institution is not going to be proactive. Rather, they need a fire lit under their ass.

Let's give Jackson some time as he might have a different perspective.
