Things are looking worse for the University of Colorado football program, especially after Saturday's 36-17 loss to Missouri. Most of the blame has been laid at the feet of head coach Dan Hawkins, who definitely knows how to talk a good game. Westword [2] declares, "the Hawkins experiment has failed." The Denver Post [3] reports CU athletic director Mike Bohn (pictured) isn't too concerned that many fans think he should be out looking for a new job---along with Hawkins. Apparently, he's too busy raising money and trying to attract new fans. That'll be hard, considering the football team is 2-6 and looks as inept as ever. The combined records of the 2008 and 2009 football teams, along with last season's men's and women's basketball teams, is 27-53, including 7-37 in conference play. In the academic year ending June 2008, the Post notes, Colorado's athletic department generated $52.63 million in revenues, putting the school at seventh in the Big 12. While it might seem like a lot of money, it's a far cry from the minimum $74.7 million the six schools ahead of CU pulled in. (The University of Texas led the way with $120.29 million.) So next time you think CU's poor athletic performance means little more than crabby CU fans, think about the money. Photo courtesy of CUBuffs.com.
