C N Red Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 I was at game. Not sure if could see it on tv but after Collins got his unsportsmanlike the coaches tried sending in VV for him. He waved him off and wouldnt come out. They then called a TO and in the huddle during the TO it looked like him and another player(Gangwish maybe) were having words. Anyone else see this?

Swiv3D Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 I was in the student section so I was too far away to really see what was going on in detail. If what you say is true, though, that is pretty pathetic on Collins. Quote Link to comment
True2tRA Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 I'd love to hear the story behind this. Banderas was saying something to Collins afterwards and it appeared Collins didn't want to hear it. Then the timeout was called and Collins was being talked to by Riley and another coach on the team (not sure who). Collins did not come back out, not that he needed to. The game was over after that penalty if not already before that. Unfortunate. Again the leadership on this team is in a position to be questioned. Not a good sign. I never saw Gangwish speaking with Collins so I'm not sure about that. I wish somebody on this team would up the expectations and accountability a little bit, but I just don't know if we have that guy on the team right now. Hard to say without being in the locker room. . Quote Link to comment
huskerfan92 Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 I take that as him knowing he just cost the team the game, and is frustrated at himself. I guarantee you he knew that he messed up there. Him and Gangwish having words is expected, emotions are running high, Collins is frustrated with himself, Gangwish is frustrated, the whole team is frustrated. He let the Northwestern player get under his skin and reacted. Collins hasn't had any issues in the past, and he's been putting forth a heck of an effort out there on the field. Not concerned about him at all. Quote Link to comment

Scratchtown Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 I was told from some one sitting in row 2 of the north end zone that it was Gangwish having words with Collins. Quote Link to comment
QMany Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 I think frustration is going to inevitable after the start this staff has produced. It will be interesting to see how this plays out. Quote Link to comment

lo country Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Leadership. Non existent. Say what you want to about Peter, Wistrom etc and the glory days, but the half a$$ing by some on this team would not have been tolerated. Plain and simple. If in fact, VV went in for Collins and he waived him off, his a$$ would be done for at least the 1st half. That undermines the staff and everyone sees that.... IF TRUE, complete BS. Now if he and Gangs got into words, good. A little too late to try and make guys accountable after 6 piss poor games, but its a start. 3 Quote Link to comment
Judoka Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 If this is true, would you expect the coaches to not play him for a game or two? Quote Link to comment
Bowfin Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 If this is true, would you expect the coaches to not play him for a game or two? Wouldn't you have expected Alex Lewis to have not played for quitting the team and mocking the fans? So I guess the accountability (or lack thereof) is not what one would expect these days. 1 Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Dayam! Collins is the best we got on defense. We sure don't need any controversy that will cost him play time. 2 Quote Link to comment
cornographic Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 The loss was a foregone conclusion at the point of Collins' foul--although I thought it was a ticky tack call by the ref. Collins is the best player on the D by far and plays for keeps on every down. Can't fault him too much for losing his patience. Quote Link to comment
StPaulHusker Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 The reason for being selected a captain is that you lead by example. This is now the second captain that has publicly done things not worthy of the honor. 2 Quote Link to comment

Absolutely happened just like this (the first part anyway). Since the numbers sucked I couldn't see who was coming in for him but he waved them back off and stayed in the game. Or tried to - until the timeout. I didn't see the interaction on the sideline. Quote Link to comment
