It’s looking more and more like Doug Collins will be the new 76ers’ coach for quite some time. ESPN’s Chris Sheridan is reporting that Collins is expected to sign a four-year contract.
Report: Doug Collins To Sign Four-Year Contract To Become 76ers’ Coach
The Philadelphia 76ers agreed on a four-year deal with TV analyst Doug Collins to become their new coach, a source told ESPN.com’s Chris Sheridan on Thursday.
The 76ers are expected to officially announce the hire Friday. Once they do, they will become Collins’ fourth team. It seemed like Collins was done with coaching after Collins’ difficult two years with the Wizards, but it didn’t take long for him to get back into it. Stephen A. Smith, for one, finds this confusing, and I agree. It does seem odd that Collins suddenly wants to get back into coaching.
