listening to the radio and perusing the message boards. Would be a shock if he is not let go after the Nebraska game.
One thing bothers/concerns me though. Two people I know that are close to the program threw out Karl Dorrell's name at me independently. One was before the OSU game when I was trying to see if he had heard anything about Hawkins fate - he claimed he had not heard anything and then out of the blue asked me what I thought of Dorrell as a potential HC. It is hard to explain, but it was kind of abnormal for the conversations I had with him in the past - it almost seemed like he was testing for traction with the idea that was not his.
After the OSU game I had a similar experience with someone else that has contacts pretty deep in the University.
I will admit I am not a fan of the Dorrell choice, but I am more concerned that once again Mike Bohn is going to make a hire without doing a decent search and vetting of candidates - which has been Bohn's MO. CU has not had a decent search for a FB coach since Mac was hired. I really don't have a particular front runner for the job but I want CU to really find out which candidate is the right fit for the job (assuming that it becomes open). And regardless of what some will say...this is an attractive job. It has potential to be in the big spotlight.
