Adams returning to UTEP?

[WuDrWu]

If I'm ADKS, my first call is to Jory Collins of NDSU. He is from Kansas, had an amazing 8 year run at Emporia State, was an assistant at KU for a year and has turned around an NDSU program that has been dreadful since their move to DI. Probably couldn't get him unless we really stepped up his pay, but he is destined for big things.

He's at $165 now so I'm sure we can step up his pay. His success in the Summit has been marginal (early but still) however he's up against a monster at SDSU in Aaron Johnson who would be great, but he hasn't seemed to want to leave SDSU as he's been there since '99 (and he's only 48) and been linked to several higher profile positions, including Minnesota. And he's getting $300K now so I have to think he's not available for many schools at all, much less a WSU program that frankly has been poor for most of his career.
