Please, spare me this strawman crap. Show me one reply on this thread arguing that Hawk should stay...
You can want Hawkins gone and still think Klatt is pompous dick. But like a lot of people here have pointed out, Klatt's schtick is the nature of talk radio. Any of us who don't like it are free to turn it off.
The point isn't that some still want Hawkins to remain. We all realize that FINALLY the holdout fans saw the light after the Cal game.
However, there are some that are still overly sensitive to honest criticism directed at Hawkins and the state of the program. That is the point.
this belongs in the pet peeves thread, no? oh and he is a doosh..

No, the point is whether the way JK is doing it is appropriate, effective, annoying or just entertainment. Everybody is entitled to their opinion... even if it doesn't match yours.
Sorry I have to disagree, Kiszla is never entitled to an opinion...

I honestly believe Klatt wouldn't be ranting like this if the chair moistener occupying the Head Coaching position would take some ****ing accountability for his actions and his team, rather than coming up with 90 million excuses and blaming the previous staff.
I think he'd still want him gone, based on the on-field results. However, I agree that his over-the-top mocking of Hawkins probably wouldn't be quite so biting if Hawk would stay away from the "little things" comments. We all know this team has a lot more to work on than a few little things. He's just making things worse for himself by saying stupid chit like that.
I agree. It is spelled "douche", not "doosh."
Klatt is full of bravado. He and CJ were to have Hawkins on for an interview. Prior to Hawk coming on, Joel was full of his usual rants and bragged about he was going to RIP Hawk. Then the interview began and Joel hardly said a word. I was kind of squirming as I waited for him to RIP into Hawkins. But he never did. Which is a good thing.
Can someone explain to me what CJ's status is with the school? I think he is still affiliated with the AD. If so, it is interesting that he is doing this show with Klatt. CJ has had his moments of questioning Hawkins, but he keeps it very controlled. I'm just wondering if he has any kind of conflict with his show and his position with the school?
I remember when DH came on with Klatt and Kreckman last November, when it got hot (i.e. questions about the QB) DH said he had a meeting to go to and couldn't answer the Q. Lame as lame can be.
When MB was on with CJ and Klatt , he jumped JK's questions and kind of came off sounding like a jerk. Bottom line is I think JK is not real popular with the current AD regime and I am not sure at this point he could do a solid interview with DH or MB. There is just too much bad feeling at this point. I have always given MB props for pretty much answering the bell for every radio interview out there. That can't be easy when your HC is not only failing in the biggest way, but an insufferable blowhard to boot.

Exactly.

But to take it a step further, I think that's the case with almost all of us. If Hawk would come out and pull a Jim Mora and admit we suck, I think we'd all cut him a little slack. We'd still want him gone, but we wouldn't hate him. I'm at the point where I can't hear the guy speak without getting the urge to rip his lungs out with my bare hands. I can't stand the guy. Honestly. If he were intellectually honest with us, my feelings towards him wouldn't be nearly as strong. I'd just want him fired.

Yup. And my mute button is working perfectly...
