[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 836375, member: 2299"] It's not hard to see the logic behind Collins' contract. It is structured in a way to pretty much guarantee 5 years. Year 1 would be before his first full class would get here. Year 2 would be where that class would be freshman. Year 5 is the year where his first full class would be seniors. That represents a full cycle, at least symbolically as redshirts extend it a little but that isn't really relevant. I imagine almost any somewhat qualified candidate we could have landed would have negotiated for something to pretty much guarantee 5 years. Otherwise it wasn't worth the risk that the job came with at the time And the reality is, no matter what some of the screaming heads here want to believe, this year likely doesn't mean anything for Collins' long term future here. Barring firing for cause he won't be let go until after year 5 and at that point what he did in years 1, 2, and 3 (and potentially 4) won't really be considered. And if you don't believe me all you have to do is look at Pastner on the basketball side of things. At the end of year 3 Pastner was 14-18 (6-12) and recruiting was a big ? to many. At the end of year 5 he was getting an extension. [/QUOTE]
