73. Dan Christensen(1st year as a NCAA Head Coach)- Wyoming made one of the better offseason hires last year when it grabbed Christensen from Missouri. Many credit the offense of Christensen as the reason why Missouri has been such a hot team as of late. With Brad Smith he had one of the better duel threat QBs in the country, with Chase Daniel he has had a great dropback QB. The ability to adjust to 2 different QBs in such a short amount of time shows the man is a great coach. Poke fans should be excited about the future.
74. Dan Hawkins(13-24 at Colorado and 107-46-1 overall)- When he left Boise in 2005 Hawkins was one of the hottest coaches in CFB, but he has still yet to have a winning season in Boulder. He did take over a very difficult situation, but improvement must be shown soon as Colorado is the type of program that should be down too long.
So, a first time head coach, who's so important they can't even spell his name right (Dave, not Dan), is ahead of Dan Hawkins. Sure, the real Dan hasn't done much, but I really do expect that to change this year. Not 10 wins worth, but back to a bowl. Besides, how can you rank someone with zero experience with someone who actually did get his current team bowl eligible (once)?
Shows just how ludicrous these ratings/rankings/opinions are.
