Interesting ESPN Post by "BoiseStateInsider"

[Buffnik]

I think people are starting to figure out the truth - Dan Hawkins was not the brains behind success. It was Chris Peterson all along. We Boise State insiders always knew the truth and tried to tell the Colorado folks. Dan Hawkins was all about himself and puffery. He is not a good coach, he was not a good co-worker, he was not a good father. His wife has held that family together while Dan did everything he could to promote himself. Hopefully, he has saved a few dollars over the years because he has earned some money. Maybe he will move into his house back in Boise and maybe become a better person. Spend some time with his family was sacraficed everything for him. Few people know the truth about the guy, but I will tell you one thing - people who worked with him at Boise State cried with relief and happiness when that #### went to Colorado. Karma is awesome.

None of that would surprise me.

That sounds kind of like a hater that was pissed when Hawkins left, and is now trying to throw it in his face.

That is all such horse****.

They hated to see Hawkins leave. And as much as they appear to have gotten a great coach in Pederson - they had no idea what kind of coach he would be when he took over.

If Hawkins had stayed in Boise and continued to go 10-2 or so every year, they would have nothing but great things to say.

Listen---want him to stay at CU or not, we disagree on that, but, trust me that this is horse ****. You think Cody follows a dad thats not a good person? Dude is a good man and good family man. I wish we would've listened to Boise fans....but, seems like EVERY SINGLE ONE that I saw was bitching on the message boards about us taking their Danny. Absolute day of grieving in Boise when they found out he interviewed, anybody else remember this. "We tried to tell them" LOL

I agree, and good job to everyone here for no going personal on Hawkins and keeping the comments to on the field strictly.
