Honestly, the visuals of him in these tight games are kind of worrisome. His face toward the end of the game was a shade of near-NU-purple. Just hope he doesn't keel over.

He's simply going through the same emotions I go through during each game. It's nice to see I'm not the only one....but you still have to feel for the guy. I love that he's soooooo invested in his son! A true dad!

We all know being an NU fan is not easy, but he's at a completely different level that he's an NU fan AND wants to see his son succeed. I hope he takes something for his blood pressure.

Plus he sort of acts like all the players on the team are his grandchildren. Kind of cool

Doug Collins is a huge add to Chris as coach. A few years ago a sat near Doug during an open scrimmage prior to the "Gameday" night game against OSU. Many of the players cam over to say hi to "Coach" Doug. He promotes the program any chance he gets and you think about his connections in the basketball world. Another great coaching mentor for Chris as well.
