Who's it going to be? I know that their athletic leadership is incompetent, at best.
However, the beautiful campus recruits on it's own.
If they get a decent coach..... :ohno:

Can you imagine what a Gary Patterson could do there :frown:
-
Would just dominate the north, scary.

Jeremy Bloom.

Klatt?

Just a hunch that it won't be the Boise St coach.
Could go with the Whittingham (Utah), Turner Gill (good jab at NU) or Gary "It's Patterson" Patterson.

I would be like, really heartbroken of Patterson went anywhere other than tcu or KSU.

If Gary Patterson goes to CU, we are &@#%ed. Fracked.

Good news is that CU can't afford a new coach right now. They don't have the cash to buy out Hawkins and sign a decent coach. Not saying it can't happen, but their boosters would have to step up in a major way to make it happen. Sucks to be a Buff. :lol:

Not really. I still love Patterson. I just hate Wefald and Krause.

Dude, those boosters are probably already scratching out checks as we speak. If they want Hawkins gone, he's gone.
-
Ron Prince would be a pretty good choice. I don't think K-State's defense was as atrocious as Colorado's at that level of play.
-
The guy they really want is Mike Shanahan, but most agree he would be too expensive and is likely to take another NFL job.

Plus he would bomb at the college level. They would be retarded not to hire Patterson.

Well, I don't know exactly what went down at the end, but I was lead to believe by Patterson's agent that they were talking with K-State. He asked me to take the site down so that the attention would die down. From the sound of it, the appeal of being near his family was bigger than the money or coming back to his alma mater.
Krause sent me an e-mail saying he wanted to talk to me about the site, then when I replied he ignored me.
After GPC released the "It's Patterson" story I called his agent and he said I could put the site back up if I wanted. I assumed it was because "the cat was out of the bag" . It made sense to me that they would deny any deal with K-State while football season was still in progress at tcu.
I don't know exactly what happened with the talks. Patterson could have made the decision to back out, and Snydez was the backup plan. Or Weefer / Snydez butted in, forcing the door shut on Patterson. Krause would take blame either way because as AD at the time, he had a legit chance to bring in an awesome coach who was apparently interested, and it didn't happen. If Weefer forced his hand (very possible) it's even worse.
The only reason the site was put up anyways was to raise fan support and pressure the AD to fire prince and look at Patterson. Seems like it was pseudo effective in that regard at least.

You might be right about that. They better have some rich donors, though, and historically CU hasn't gotten the kind of booster support that other Big 12 schools get. They are way behind in facilities as it is.
Funny post by CU Fan:
This is an enbarrassament worse that any rape of murder charges or any other
terrible scandal that can happen to any school. This is not intramurals Coach Hawkins!

Can you imagine what a Gary Patterson could do there :frown:
I truly believe he wouldn't be able to to crap. Bouldertown hates genetically modified foods, black people, women, poor people ... but most of all sports. The true intention of this university is to become a private university so they can conveniently do away with those pesky "in staters". To do that, they'll need to first eliminate any interest in the sports program. A prime example of this doctrine at work is the hiring of the mouth-breathing neanderthal, Dan Hawkins.
I still think they'll kick our ass this year.

IIRC, Shanahan has more connections to CSU, anyway.

Funny thread, but Hawk is going nowhere. The school is broke, but I would love Patterson now that you mention it. Our defense kind of needs it.

Sound like CU us up a sh1t creek with Hawkins. They still have a massive debt from their last coaching change and buyout of Barnett. Sounds like their athletic department is in no position to fire him at the moment. A Hawkins buyout would be in the $3 Million range. Check out this Kyle Ringo article for details:
http://www.buffzone.com/ci_13329737?source=most_viewed
The athletic department remains in deeply in debt with the majority of an $8 million loan from the campus and the CU system in 2006 still to be paid off. Part of that debt was caused by the last coaching change when Bohn fired Gary Barnett at the end of the 2005 season and hired Hawkins.
CU was heavily criticized for having to pay Barnett approximately $4 million when it fired him. The terms of Barnett's contract, negotiated by former athletic director Dick Tharp, required the settlement, and that led to CU trying to limit its obligations in Hawkins' contract.
The department would have to borrow money to buyout Hawkins and it would be hard-pressed to do so in the current economic climate in which state funding is being significantly trimmed and some CU employees have already lost their jobs.
Paying a coach millions of dollars not to coach might be hard to justify, maybe even more so than living with the results he is producing on the field.

Remember how he would have been here, if your website hadn't fracked that up. Fracked.

that KSU was negotiating with Patterson without tcu's knowledge or consent and once Fitz opened his pie hole KSU was guilty of tampering with tcu's employee. The only way out was to drop the whole freakin deal and go back to OB's, because I don't think KSU was getting somebody else without an AD or president in place.
I am predicting Venables to CU.

Can you imagine my meltdown if Patterson went to a Big XII North school not named Kansas State?
Good lord, that would be ridiculous.

Only in Boulder. (http://www.denverpost.com/colleges/ci_13346430)
BOULDER — After an embarrassing loss at Toledo, Colorado football players knew they would have a hostile greeting when they returned home, but maybe they didn't know the extent of it.
They do now.
"I have this geology class," senior linebacker and captain Marcus Burton said Tuesday, "and the professor's like, 'You people may think this class is boring. We're just talking about rocks. But it's no more boring than both the CU games. Marcus, you're a captain. Can you tell us about that?'
"He calls me out on the floor. I wanted to leave, but I didn't. I'm in the class to learn. I'm not there to talk about football."

Hey, welcome back on this Monday to Geo 211 . . . before we begin talking some more about the root causes of landslides in North America, I'd like Carson Coffman to come up here and explain to all of us how in the hell he missed completely on 8 straight passes . . .

See, sometimes I see I post on here, like some lame-o asking one of the rare women who might post here if she likes it "ITB", and think . . . "How in the fracking hell is there an ESPN banner up there???" :confused: :facepalm:
But it's an off-color post of this quality that keeps me a-comin back.

I told you that Mike Shanahan was their dream candidate back in September. Others listed here as well:
If there is a change, the list of candidates will be a large one. Expect athletic director Mike Bohn to aim high and go from there.
How high? We`re guessing Bohn will begin by testing former Bronco coach Mike Shanahan`s temperature.
Despite rumors to the contrary, the two have not spoken. Neither have they had discussions through intermediaries.
But it`s an intriguing possibility. Shanahan has two more years of being paid $7 million by former boss Pat Bowlen, meaning money wouldn`t be a major issue in Boulder -- for at least a couple of years.
The positives? Along with an immediate bump in ticket sales and a couple of Super Bowl rings, Shanahan would bring to CU a high-profile, high-powered list of donors who could fill CU`s donations coffers in a hurry. Such a hire would put CU back on the map immediately.
(We interrupt this dream, however, to inject a little dose of reality. CU has traveled this road before. We mention Chuck Fairbanks only as fair warning.)
It`s also difficult to imagine Shanahan developing an interest in recruiting. He`s a man who loves studying football -- not poring over lists of prep stars. Game plans, salary caps and free agency are his areas of expertise, not selling a program to 18-year-olds and their parents.
But it is nevertheless a fascinating thought.
Other names you are sure to hear if Hawkins is indeed on the way out?
Former head coaches such as Phil Fulmer (Tennessee) and Tommy Tuberville (Auburn) are sure to be mentioned. Oklahoma defensive coordinator Brent Venables usually finds his name in the mix when jobs open up.
Then there are current head coaches who might be ready to move up to a BCS school.
Houston`s Kevin Sumlin is a hot commodity this year. A year ago, the man on lots of folks` list was Buffalo`s Turner Gill. One guy we like is Air Force coach Troy Calhoun, who has a solid pro background (Broncos) as well as the proven ability to pick up and win in a hurry, as he did in his first year at AFA.
And, of course, there will be the names that hard-core CU fans favor: Jon Embree. Eric Bieniemy. Dave Logan.

I want Gary Patterson or Kevin Sumlin. I think we'll get either of them. The University is going to have to pony up the money somehow, because I don't see how da Cawk stays.

Hawk was a hot candidate last time around. They'll probably have a WTF hire this time.

Love the Dave Logan mention in every CU coaching search article.
