Ernest Collins, Jr.

Much discourse here on Griz coaching records, past and present. Lots of discussion regarding 0.600 winning percentages in the pejorative. Compare to Earnest Collins, Jr., HC of UNC. Lifetime WL HC record of 31-64 (0.326). Played for Joe Glenn at UNC.

Ouch!

Reminds me of a point I mentioned on another thread: "FCS Coaches in the Hall of Fame"

Of course, the main thing I discovered was that most of the FCS coaches who are in the College Football Hall of Fame coached at HBCU schools. But also:

Another bit of a shock. Across the board, over a quarter (57 of 214) of the Hall of Fame coaches have a winning percentage below 63%. In fact, the low man in the Hall is legendary(?) Tuss McLaughry, who coached at Westminster College, Amherst, Brown and Dartmouth in the span from 1915 to 1954. His win rate was just 49.0%, the only below-500 member of the Hall. Two bottom feeders you might have heard of (not FCS, obviously) are John Ralston (inducted 1992, 54.4%) and Hayden Fry (inducted 2003, 56.4%). So the career winning percentage does not appear to be an over-riding factor for selection to the College Hall of Fame.

That would be interesting. Hasn't Souers said he may still want to coach somewhere?

That's my recollection too.

Oh yeah, cool. Let's hire a coach with an NAU all time winning percentage of .523 because Stitt's .600-ish winning percentage isn't good enough.

Read the whole thread, we are talking about Northern Colorado, not the Griz. Seriously, the thread it titled Ernest Collins, Jr. AKA the HEAD COACH AT NORTHERN COLORADO. Maybe read the whole thing, take a moment to comprehend it, then respond.

:fuel:

I'm calling it... Souers to the U of M and Hauck to NAU.

Would egriz survive the resulting chaos?

More concerned about the results. Hauck is 7-0 vs. Souers.

Yeah well, recommendation accepted.

7-1.

NAU beat UNLV when Hauck was in Vegas.

In all seriousness, we just do not belong in this conference. Montana: Less than 8-3 and 24,000 in attendance and you’re gone!!

Everyone else: Meh. We won 3 games, and actually had 2300 at Homecoming. Of course we gave 2000 tickets away, but still, they came! Here’s another 7 year contract!!
