Coach Collins brings a wealth of experience as the leader of the 'Rocker football team --- along with some

familiarity of the program and institution --- as he was previously the defensive coordinator for SD Mines in

2002 under former head coach Darren Soucy.

With 16 years collegiate football coaching experience, Collins served at Portland State University before

taking over as head of the Hardrocker football program in 2012, an NCAA Div. I FCS program, where he was

the assistant head coach and special teams coordinator. Prior to that, he spent three seasons with Central

Washington University (NCAA Div. II) as the special teams coordinator and linebacker/defensive line coach.

The Hardrocker head coach's career also included stops at Southern Oregon University in 2007 (defensive

coordinator), Idaho State from 2005-06 (linebackers coach), Western Washington from 2003-04 (linebackers

coach) and Western Oregon from 1998-2002 (special teams coordinator and linebackers coach). In addition,

he spent time in Europe on the coaching staff of the Vienna Vikings (Austria) European League football team

as the defensive coordinator and interim head coach from 1999-2001.

Collins played college football at Western Oregon from 1993-97 as a linebacker, graduating with a degree in

physical education (1998) and then a Master's in education in 2001.

Collins, a native of Sutherlin, Ore., has been married to his wife, Mandi since July 2002. The couple has four

daughters, Kayla (12), Mackenzie (10), and Kylee (4) and Mackenna (2).

Tinker brings a considerable amount of football coaching experience to Rapid City. He joined the

Hardrockers after a very successful stint at Eastern Oregon University in La Grande, Ore., where he was the

assistant head coach as well as the offensive and recruiting coordinator (2008-2011). Tinker spent four

seasons with the Eastern Oregon Mounties, a NAIA Div. I institution. While there Tinker also served as the

quarterbacks coach and wide receivers coach.

" I've had the opportunity to work with Coach Tinker at two different universities and I couldn't be more

excited to have him take the reins of our offense," Collins said. "He is a tremendous coach and an even

better person. He is professional and passionate and will be instrumental in helping lead our program into

Division II football."

As an offensive asset to the Hardrockers, Tinker believes the key to football success is being able to make in-

game adjustments, being flexible and to attack personnel match-ups to name a few. He believes an

aggressive game plan will net positive results.

2013 – Hardrockers finished season with 6-4 record marking only the 2nd winning season in the previous 25

years of SDSMT football … Recognized as the most prolific offense in the 109 year history of Hardrocker

Football … Rocker Offense set mark for most points scored in a season (384 / 38.4 ppg) … Set school record

for total yards in a season 4268 (426.8 ypg) …

Verdun Wheeler is one of 17 interns coaching this season on the Division II, Division III or NAIA level. Mines

head coach Stacy Collins said the NFLPA sends out an email advertising the program each spring and this

year was the third time they had applied for the internship.

Verdun Wheeler, who is coaching mike and rover linebackers, said his number one concern as a coach is to

make sure the players are ready for life after their playing days, as well as making sure they are ready for

Saturdays (game day).

He also said he wants to teach schemes that he knows from his time in the NFL and Division I football.

Originally, he said he was a little shy about talking about his playing experience with the team, but he has

been encouraged by Collins to do so. He finished with 164 tackles in his four years with the Bulldogs (2003-

2206) in the Southeastern Conference (SEC).

After stops in training camps for the Chicago Bears and Washington Redskins, Verdun Wheeler turned to

high school coaching for four years in the Atlanta area.
