I don't think we should offer scholarships until a week or two before signing day. These kids need to prove themselves. Umm. Dammit!

Wtf does that have to do with stripper glitter? Talk about threadjacking. Jezz DBT.
 
I didn't want to dedicate a thread to this so I'll post it in the thread. This probably deserves to be in a dumbass thread like this :wink2:

I heard CJ mention something about Hawkins' recruiting that had never been made public: Hawkins made a decision to only recruit players from two parent families. CJ was so pissed that, at the time, he went up to Hawkins and voiced his objection. CJ felt it was akin to racism. Were any of you aware of this?

Not the first time I've heard this. Hawkins had very rigid views on what background he felt created the psychology of a Hawkins player. I'll leave it at that.

I doubt he would fabricate it. Now, maybe it was Hawkins' preference and not policy. I don't know.

I don't think he would fabricate it either but that is some serious ****. I'm a bastard. No really a true bastard so this really offends me.
 
Im so glad that ****er is gone, I had never heard about that and it offends me as well. I guess my son wouldnt be good enough for the Hawk either, Thank God for that.
 
The Hawkins views on two-parent families were reported with direct quotes a few years ago. I remember the board wondering why the hell he would make the comments, let alone make them publicly.
 
I seem to recall this being revealed just after he was fired. He was and is a buttscud (usually a term of endearment reserved for fuskers)

These came out in 08 or 09 I believe, way before he was fired
 
The more I read about Hawkins, the more he seems bat **** crazy. I guess those Boise State players had it right when they publicly stated that Hawkins was holding them back and they couldn't "take the next step" with him running the show.
 
it's a ridiculous comment that borders on eugenics theory. it's stupid.

my parents are divorced and they are both good people who didn't want to be married anymore. they made a change and are both a lot happier than when i was in my teens and they were fighting all the time. My sister and I have both done pretty well for ourselves, imo.

I won't miss Dan's moralizing or "you guys know me", "I'm the kind of guy....", "aw shucks" fake bull****.

when i walk past the Dal in the AM these days....i feel like we might play some football instead of being a national freakshow. while Embree has a lot to prove IMO and i don't think it happens right away, i like that feeling.

Was that before or after we hired DII?

My recollection is that those comments/sentiments about Hawkins were expressed by the BSU players almost immediately after his hiring. They weren't really sour grapes comments either IMO, more matter of fact comments like they knew something that we didn't. I dunno, perhaps I'm reading more into it now that I have a jaundiced eye from the debacle that occurred here.

That is unbelievable. Every time I think Hawkins couldn't have been any dumber, something like this shows up and proves me wrong. ::SIGH::

The more I think about this, I feel I did know it happened but managed to block it from memory

If anybody knew what he was, Id think BSU players would know better than anyone. They were right. The more I hear D2 was in over his head, the more I believe that was the case. No identity, no discipline in our play the whole time he was here. Maybe you can get away with drawing up plays in the sand hoping they will work at Boise. You cant do that **** consistently at a big conference.
