I hope so too. I was told by an assistant coach from an in state college this summer that Collis and Jones had a little falling out. This guy usually is in the know but this was during the summer and they may have patched things up by now. I saw Dale was quoted as saying that he believes Jones should get at least 2 more years to fix thing but that's not a surprise. Hopefully Jones has lost Collis's support but I agree neither one of those guys need input on the next hire.

Collis also had a falling out with Trent fairly quickly.

Here's my take..Collis is very opinionated and strong willed and because his sons were able to help Brady bring some talent in here he was granted some access and liked that.

Well, his sons have been gone a while and he really is no help in recruiting anymore, but still has this feeling of entitlement to weigh in the program and wield his influence. And the last two coaches probably did not appreciate that an maybe told him as much.
