Re: Hawk tells staff he's back next year
Supposedly Hawkins has met with Distephano every week.
Supposedly Hawkins has met with Distephano every week.
The world I live in in my professional career is a world of analysis. There are advantages and disadvantages to almost every decision. Pros and cons. It seems that if I post something that seems to "favor" Hawkins, then I'm a "Hawkins lover." I get sick of that bull****. I've been clear that I believe we need to make the change. But the title of the thread was "Excuses vs facts." There are some "facts" that, if someone puts them out there, maybe gets misinturpreted.
You say "CU football is DEAD." Here is the way I see it. The next coach will inherit a better pool of talent than Hawkins did. Across the board, CU has a lot of good, young players. Now, that sounds like a defense of Hawkins. But the way I see it, it is an indictment that he could not win with the guys he has. I can see, with the right coach, this program turning around FAST.
He must be able to describe every detail of the bottom of Phil's desk.:wow:Supposedly Hawkins has met with Distephano every week.

Maybe Hawk will be the new A.D.!
Bohn re-takes the now open A.D. job at San Diego State.
Kiesau takes the Portland State HC job.
Hawk and Mac conduct a search for a new coach, with Bob Simmons and Brian Cabral getting inside chances at the job.
Greg Brown is promoted to DC.
Jon Embree is hired as new OC.
Everything will be sunny again in Colorado.
Hawk can keep selling his development of a clean program without it taking away from the on-field performance of the football team.
CU saves $3 million+ by not buying out Hawk, and Bohn's contract runs through 2010 so wouldn't be a huge hit.
All is well in Buffalo country!
I think you misunderstand my name calling. I am just joking when I do that. But I've stopped because I realized that it was taken the wrong way. Sorry if I offended you in the past. I'm not like that. I think there have been a few times where I actually did get angry and lashed out and I apologize for that as well. This season has brought out the worst in many of us, I'm afraid. But the whole "dickwad" and "douchbag" thing almost always was done jokingly as if kidding around with your friends. I got caught up in thinking us Allbuffers were just a bunch of buddies joking around on the internet and that got me in trouble.Is that professional analysis where you come up with calling other posters names and being a general ***? Just curious...
Took you off my ignore list because you were replying in my thread...
That's a very good point.If they were dead set on keeping him, they could have killed speculation months ago instead of having us in coaching and recruiting limbo for so long.

Apology accepted. I certainly am one who took it in the wrong way.
then screw it, I will get behind him, because I want him to succeede. He has done a very good job of cleaning up Barnett's mess so if keeping him for one more try is his reward then I will root for Hawk to turn this thing around. My loyalty is to the program and if Hawkins is the leader of that program next year then I will be loyal to him, until he goes for it back in his own 20 on 4th and forever.
"I will be back" ... making sure everybody gets a juice box and an orange slice after every practice, two juice boxes per game.
the fact is that the buffs have been outcoached before each game (save for maybe 2 or 3) for the last 4 years.
Relax. You don't need to go there. Enjoy your Thanksgiving. We'll soon have a new coach to get excited about.
In these days of trying to outscoop each other no other media outlet has picked up this story. By now everyone would be running with it if the story had any legs.
It is now on footballcoachscoop.com that Hawk is returning.
