How many wins in 2010 for you to want Hawkins back in 2011?

9 wins next year and all of you guys would have a Hawkins poster on your bedroom walls. :lol:

9 wins doesn't make a Hawk poster good enough to wipe my ass with.

I hate being a hater but I'm convinced that Hawk will never lead our Buffs to the promise land. Time to move on.

Put me in the group that wants him gone. I am convinced that he will not be successful in the long run at CU and he is not the man for the job. He would have to have a very big change in his approach to get me back on board.

While it's very early, I think CU stands a very good chance at a lot of the top in state guys next year. A 7 win season keeps most of them home imo. Hell, 7 wins would've kept a few of the guys home this year, but that sort of didn't work out.

I think you're right. 7 wins this year and we would have kept Jones and I doubt Spond would have ever waivered. We probably get 2-3 other guys as well.

Hawkins has failed so badly, that he will never be able to recruit at a high level again. If he can't recruit, he will never turn the program around. remove him the sooner the better.

9 wins for me. It is a tall order, but I think w/ 8 in the RS and a bowl win would mark hope for the future and give Hawkins a reasonable chance to build on the success. I was close to choosing the 8 wins, but 8-5 just doesn't quite sound good enough to make up for 4 losing seasons. I'd take the winning season, but would rather see someone else build on that momentum.

Some would use it as a dart board, others would put it on their bed and ......

I remember how so many people (Lot's of Buff fans included) were ripping nU for firing Solich after a 9 win season. Now we (self included) want hawkins fired even if he reels off 9 wins this year. Funny.

'Course the difference is that in nU's case, 9 W's "just isn't up to the expectations". Here it's because 9 W's just wouldn't be enough to make up for the disappointments.

Compare Solich's tenure at neb before 2003 to Hawkin's tenure at CU.

neb was stupid to fire Solich. Solich won at least 9 games in all but one season while coaching for 6 years at neb. He never had a losing season.

Hawkins has had a losing season in all 4 years here. He's never had a winning season.

Hence the last 2 sentences of my post. On the surface, it's funny. Take away the first layer of the onion and it's totally different.

The discussion of 8 wins as if it is something that is even within the realm of possibility is funny to me.

Who said anything about it being within the realm of possibility?

Yeah, a loss to CSU and we may be talking about a midseason coaching change.

Loss to CSU and WE BETTER DAMN WELL SEE AN IMMEDIATE COACHING CHANGE!

I am in the boat of 8 regular season wins or GTFO. I don't care about the schedule or any of the other excuses that have been offered up over the past four years. No slack, no excuses accepted...shut up and show you can win at a BCS school! The talent is there and just about any coach worth a lick could win with this team now.

I'm with you. He will never amass to sheet. Oh wait, he can amas to a big ol' bucket of sheet, I for one cant wait until he's gone. We are the bottom of the BigXII in recruiting and the lambs are beating us in every way possible. I'm sorry, but I cant believe we got rid of GB for this crap!
