In a way I feel bad for Bohn. He clearly rolled snake eyes in hiring Hawk. I thought Hawk was a good hire at the beginning, and I held out hope as long as I could, but the guy is a disaster. IMO, MB knew getting rid of Hawk was the right move, but was overruled. Now he gets the heat for playing the lap dog. I think he is really trying, but the FB hire, and it's subsequent lack of positive results, may kill any momentum MB developed so far.
It's pretty obvious, recruits, fans and supporters are rapidly losing interest. It all starts and ends with the FB team. The end of last season was the tipping point, everyone knew what had to be done...it wasn't. The fans, supporters and recruits took that as a lack of commitment to win, and acted accordingly. No amount of talk will undo the actions taken...or in this case, not taken. It's a sad state of affairs.
Now MB has to hope and pray the FB staff can somehow figure it out. Good luck with that. MB said CU is not a win at all costs outfit, and I wouldn't want them to be, but as the FB team goes, the AD goes. It appears the price of winning at CU is somewhere south of $3MM, which compared to everyone CU is competeing against, is little league.
