Back in the late 1980's I was a resident of the great state of Illinois, and a student attending Illinois State University. One of our university's most notable alums at the time was the head coach of the Chicago Bulls, Doug Collins. I remember watching the Bulls under that amazing head coach almost defeat the great Detroit Pistons in the playoffs a couple of years in a row. And that was a really good Pistons team.

Well anyway they let Collins go after that and who knows what became of the Bulls next. I'm sure most people stopped following them. Oh well. What might have been.

But wait... It's morning in Chicago again...

The team which gave Doug Collins his first coaching job is on the verge of luring Collins back to the bench one more time.

Numerous Chicago media outlets reported Thursday that the Chicago Bulls will soon announce that Collins is leaving his successful television career to be the Bulls' new coach. Multiple sources close to the situation confirmed those reports to ESPN.

How can this be anything other than a good move? Illinois State equals awesome! Derek will back me up on this.

((Also the Wolves are likely to be "rebuilding" at very least until they fire Kevin McHale (graduate of a lesser university of course). ))

Go Bulls!!! (for the forseeable future!)
