The news was first reported by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

The buyout for Collins is expected to be $11.37 million, compared to $7.2 million it would have cost the school in January. (It would have been nearly $10.6 million at regular season end). The buyout for Stansbury isn't considered prohibitive.

Collins is 10-28 as Georgia Tech's coach after arriving from Temple. Stansbury has been Georgia Tech's athletic director since 2006. Stansbury hired Collins and made the decision to bring him back last year after a 3-9 season.

Collins has three years left on his initial contract. He was making approximately $3.3 million this year.
