Andy Staples from SI, great article on Buffs and their lack of talent.

Also says we should make a coaching change..

For his part, Bohn preached staying the course. "We're trying to re-establish the foundation for our program," he said. "We all recognize we're not there yet. We're not happy with this and our fans aren't happy with it. Again, it's where we are."

Bohn said the stain of Gary Barnett's scandal-plagued tenure lingered longer than the Buffs let on, especially when they were knocking off Oklahoma in Hawkins' second year. He reminded everyone that Colorado legend Bill McCartney, the original Promise Keeper, started 0-4 in his fourth season. Like this one, that season began with a home loss to Colorado State. The Buffs would win their next five games, including an upset of No. 3 Nebraska. Four years after that, Colorado claimed a share of the national title.

The difference is in the scores. After a 23-7 loss to the Rams in 1986, the Buffs lost to Oregon by two, to Ohio State by three and to No. 10 Arizona by 3. They did not get completely outclassed by a MAC team.

Talent level.. What talent.. ?

It's only going to get worse. Toledo -- a team picked to finish fourth in the MAC west division -- looked faster at almost every position than the Buffaloes. Colorado tailback Darrell Scott, who racked up 289 all-purpose yards despite no discernible role in the offense in the second half, clearly was the best athlete on the field. It seemed the Rockets ranked No. 2 through No. 23. That speaks to Hawkins' recruiting. Nebraska has Big 12-quality players. So do Missouri and Kansas. Judging by their first two games, the Buffaloes would have trouble competing in the Mountain West and the MAC.

Take note Unleash and talent believers.. A guy with an unbiased view even sees it.

This is the salient point: Florida athletic director Jeremy Foley, a man who has never been shy to fire a coach who doesn't win championships, adheres to a simple philosophy: What must be done eventually should be done immediately.
 
I will personally pack his things. I will lovingly wrap his family's knick knacks in bubble paper. I hope he goes on to win a thousand games at some other university because clearly he's not the least bit interested in doing it here. My theory about him being a nebraska sleeper agent sent to eradicate our program is looking better and better.

you want him gone, send Bohn the money to pay the buyout.
 
Royal, you are so correct in saying he shows no interest. He acts like a complete glug on the sidelines. Emotionless. That is not what your players want to see. I remember EB used to get the huddle going on the sidelines, on top of the huddle he would be. He looks so efn lost.:wow:
