Green Bay Notre Dame running back Christian Collins commits to Northern Iowa as preferred walk-on

GREEN BAY – One of the most prolific high school running backs in state history has found his college home.

Green Bay Notre Dame senior Christian Collins accepted a preferred walk-on offer to play at the University of Northern Iowa, an NCAA Division I school in Cedar Falls.

The program has produced several NFL players, notably Hall of Fame quarterback Kurt Warner and former Green Bay Packers linebacker and Green Bay Southwest football coach Bryce Paup.

Collins visited the UNI campus last week. It didn't take long to decide it was the right fit.
