Hawkins Hangs In
The news that University of Colorado will retain head football coach Dan Hawkins for another season is not what Buffs fans want to hear. Witness this sentiment on The Ralphie Report: Today, the University of Colorado had a chance to send a message that it isn’t acceptable to go 2 – 18 on the road….
