Hawk's retention is a political question....

Benson thinks the heat will be more from the legislature and public than from the alums and fans. It's as simple as that. If it were a business decision, Hawk would be gone. Bohn understands the catastrophe heading the AD's way by retaining Hawk (i.e. empty seats, loss of revenue). The political hacks who made the decision have little appreciation for maintaining a bottom line. Instead they are worried about somebody jumping in line in front of them to suck off the public teat.

Until the political price for undercutting CU FB increases, CU FB will always be at the mercy of hacks like Benson and DiStefano.
 
Well put. Here's hoping that the alums and fans of the program keep the pressure on these guys. If they won't change, then put pressure on the regents to get some people in leadership positions that will do the right thing for athletics.
