Colorado has relieved Dan Hawkins of his duties as football coach, the university said in a release on Tuesday. Brian Cabral will coach the 3-6 Buffaloes' final three games. The team was told of the move at a meeting Tuesday morning.
"We collectively believed that it was important to provide the opportunity for Dan as head coach and his current staff to pull things together, and things looked bright just one month ago after we opened with a 3-1 record," athletics director Mike Bohn said in a statement. "However, things have gone downhill from there. While we recognize the progress that we have made in several areas during nearly five years under Dan, the negativity and divisiveness that is associated with the current leadership has become detrimental and is beyond repair to our current enterprise and it's time to make a change."
