You could be right but I don't think JE will give it to him. He'd actually have to win the game for that to happen.
 
Hawkins was fired in season.

Barnett was officially fired on Thursday, December 8, 2005 - which was 5 days after the Big 12 Championship game, which Colorado lost 70-3.

We went to a bowl game in 2005, so Barnett was also technically fired in season.

They are. They want to say that they gave him the full season to make his case. I actually understand this, even if I don't agree with it.
 
I don't have any problem on waiting until the season ends to make a change.

However, I think it is rather silly to be deciding a future based upon ONE game.

2-10 = Embree stays, but 1-11 = Embree fired?

Both results are pretty ******, to me.

I totally agree, but I think it could come down to it. I honestly don't know what goes on in their ivory tower.
 
In my mind it isn't even the W-L totals. While 1-11 or 2-10 is unacceptable, the fact is that the team shows NO improvement at all from last year or during the season. If we were able to compete with the teams we face yet lose I think I would have been frustrated, but willing to support one more year. As it is, it is a complete failure that needs more than just a band-aid solution.
