[QUOTE="GTNavyNuke, post: 821036, member: 322"] When should Collins be fired if performance doesn't get a lot better in your opinion? I think at least to the end of next year (year 4) and probably to end of year 5 so I voted for year 5. I'm resigned to us not being relevant this year based on the depth of the problems I saw Saturday night against a marginal opponent. Only Duke may be close to NIU. Sorry guys/ gals, Collins can't game day coach very well. And the team was unprepared for the game. [I]But the buyout is too big along with the salary for a "proven" coach [/I]assuming we could get one. [B]There are no good options here (tic) except hope that things turn around and Collins gets some gameday help IMHO. [/B]I think he is too old / experienced to suddenly have the gameday presence to manage a game. I put in some qualifiers on the poll questions. The Stansbury metric of "looking like we belong on the field" was not met Saturday IMHO. And at some point the low bar of making a bowl becomes relevant to me. [USER=3178]@yellowjacketabe[/USER] posted this which I'm assuming is right: [URL]https://gtswarm.com/threads/fire-geoff-collins.23705/post-820104[/URL] "Doing some digging into CGC’s contract will lead you to these facts… + 7 year deal worth 23.1 million + He is in year 3 currently, making 3.2 million + If he is fired within the first four years, he will get all 23.1 million. + If he is fired after year 4, he will get 2.4 per year for the years remaining on the 7 year contract. In conclusion, if we fire him this year, we would fork out 13.8 million. If he is fired at the end of next season (at the end of 4 years) his buyout would be 7.2 million. He isn’t going to get fired this year; that’s a lot of money that I don’t think will be put up or raised. Financially, it’s smarter to wait until the end of next season to can him.
