Hawkins: message board posters are "scum of society"

[huskerred00]

Interesting to hear Hawkins downplay the game... oh and by the way, message board posters are "scum of society".... hahaaaaa!

 

cu station posted the coaches show without commercials

 

here is their site

 

GO BIG RED!

Wow. And Michigan fans need to "get a life" accoring to their coach.

 

These coaches today do not handle criticism very well. They could let it roll off their shoulder. You would think.

 

ohhh the pressure of being a coach...

[tattooedhusker]

I'll take the pressure for that paycheck (head coaching)

[Vince from ShamWOW]

How does the coach of a program with pathetic fan following have pressure? Who is applying the pressure at CU?

[HuskerCuse]

he does... of course... relize that there are CU message boards, right?

 

"the worst day as a buff is better than the best day as a husker" ummmm.... no.

That phrase moved him up on my douche o meter..

[tattooedhusker]

him coaching at CU moved him up on my douche-o-meter

[MOD_CHAMPION]

In this day and age doesn't just about everyone have some sort of message board that they post on with some kind of regularity?

[Drowning_in_the_Sea_of_Red]

I can see where he's coming from...

 

I mean... I've seen some pretty horrible things posted. (yes, even on here) Stuff that I don't think people would normally say...

fyi that statement is a week old and taken out of context. He was stating that he thinks internet boards should not be taken seriously by anyone especially by potential recruits and current team members (much like we all think here). He wasn't being evil in any way. As a matter of fact he praised NU for the way they have been playing and what Coach Bo has done. Coach Hawkins downplays this game in much the same way MacCartney built it up

the sCUm of society huh? so puts us just below rapist and murderers.

This is how I see it from my point a view, his son was red shirted his frosh year and the CU brass/backers/expectations are allocating him 5 years minimum (after Hawkins throwing the baby out with the bath water approach-smart move). Look at it this way, after those 5 years his son will have graduated by then, a senior, earning close to the equivalent of $125,000 of education/possible degree at Boulder while the dad/Hawkins will get paid close to $6 million after 5 years. You could rant and belittle me, my family, friends whoever on message boards if I had a scenario like this with these expectations. If I was a new HC at a school, I definitely go the Hawkins route. Start off with a 2-10 season and there's no way to go but up. Even next year if CU finally gets to 7-5 and a winning season/bowl, things look peachy and you've weathered the storm enough for the next year. Great deal Hawkins set up.

The best part about the "best days as a buff" quote is that it's not even grammatically correct.

 

 

"The best dayS as a Buff IS better than the best days as a Husker? No.

He could have gotten the same level of education for a third the price if he would have just enrolled at Hamilton Business College...
