Bryan Collins was a legendary figure in NE10 football, as he led LIU Post’s program beginning in 1998 as a member of the Eastern Football Conference, before the NE10 began sponsoring the sport. LIU Post, originally known as C.W. Post, was an NE10 associate member and it became a national contender under Collins. He accumulated a 110-29 record in NE10 play – good for a .791 winning percentage, which is the best among all NE10 head coaches with at least 100 games coached. He ranks second in all-time NE10 wins. Collins is also a seven-time EFC/NE10 Coach of the Year and led LIU Post to at least a share of nine conference titles. His program’s best NCAA finish was in the quarterfinals in 2005, matching the best finish of any NE10 football team in history. Collins is the first football coach to be inducted into the NE10 Hall of Fame.
