Frankly it wouldn't surprise me if Hawkins WAS back next year. Given the nature of the economy and the way the University is cutting back - it wouldn't surprise me one bit if he was back.

If he does return, hopefully he makes some fairly significant staff changes.

Honestly didn't have much of a reaction. But a kitten died while I was reading it.

I'd be shocked if he is brought back.. Only staff change he could make to make the team better would be to replace himself. Because he truly is that BAD of a coach.

I still don't think of Hawkins as a "bad" coach. But I do think his message is not connecting with the CU players or translating to the Big 12 game.

If Hawkins could just find a way to make that connection with the team, and get everybody (coaches and players) on the same page, I still think he could be a good coach.

Unfortunately, after four years, it just doesn't look like he's made that connection, and it doesn't appear that everyone is on the same page. As such, whether he is a good coach, or a bad coach, I don't think he's going to be coaching at CU next year.

Lt, with all due respect, his game day coaching has been a joke.. That isn't going to change brining in some staff members.. The guy is in over his head in big time college football.. Margin of error is much smaller in the BCS conference than in the WAC against the Idaho's of the world.

It's rainy and crappy down here in Austin today and I'm just plain jealous I'm not on the beach throwing a few of those back before going to watch the Buffs in Lahaina.

Not near as nice as the bases in Sandy Eggo or Pearl... and we constantly have to watch our depth control in Lake Travis or we're playing "mud darts!" :cool:

And Town Lake is more than secure, but I do have to say those UT co-eds sure do like when that big, long, steel tube full of seamen makes a port call at the docks under the Congress St. Bridge! :dance::dance::drink2:

I figured there had to be something going on there. If its any consolation I am here with you. Been putting off heading back to the Valley for going on 4 days now. Was in Cozumel before that though. No mai tais, but had a cucumber/jalapeno marg that was pretty good.

You really need to keep your post count up (nice tee).
 
My reaction was we should all set up a boycott of the NU game.... see if Bohn feels good about it when there are 20,000 NU fans and 10,000 CU fans.

Also I must go clean up the drink I hurled across my living room when I saw the title of this thread.
 
I am sure that Bohn is doing some serious number crunching.

$3mil to buyout Hawkins vs. the expected losses in donations / gate receipts over the next couple years.

I think the only way Bohn lets Hawkins go this year is if those numbers show that it will cost CU MORE to keep Hawkins than it will to fire/buyout Hawkins.

My first reaction was: who is the dickwad ****ing with me?

My second reaction was: i hope DBT isn't serious, because it might mean he's finally gone off the deep end.

What a sophomoric post.
 
first reaction was not surprised. and I now believe that he will be our coach next year. I will be shocked if Hawkins is not the coach next year.

I heard some things over the weekend that make me believe that Hawk is back. The only thing that would change that is a blowout loss to the corn.
