I agree with you. And, even if there are better recruiters out there, find it unlikely we could attract someone who could recruit better than CC.
Also, I do not think he is "not doing his job". I have no info or reason to believe he is not a hard worker.
But that's useless if you can't get more than 4 wins, like last season, with a fairly decent roster. Or you can't make the tourney, or even get close to making it, with a preseason ranked team. Guard play, league better than usual, losing glue guy, All State, injuries, blah blah blah. 4 and 6 wins was very mediocre.
Do you believe 4 B1G wins next season is acceptable? Or the season after?
Four B1G wins next season would merit putting Collins on the hot seat. Four B1G wins in 2021-22 and I would almost certainly support a coaching change.
(We also have different opinions on a “fairly decent roster.” While NU absolutely should have won at least 2-3 more games last year, the lack of a PG was killer. And again, that was beyond CCC’s control.)
