The football coach, Dan Hawkins; was fired from the University of Colorado 3 days after the biggest meltdown in school history.
Athletic director Mike Bohn promoted longtime assistant Brian Cabral to take over as the coach for the final three games of the season, beginning Saturday against Iowa State. Hawkins was hired by Bohn in 2006 after going 53-11 at Boise State. Losing his last 17 games outside of Colorado, Dan was bound to get fired.
Quarterback Cody Hawkins, the son of Dan Hawkins, was among the captains scheduled to talk to the media. Hawkins was one of the hottest coaches in the nation when he was brought to Boulder to replace Gary Barnett.
In a statement, Dan Hawkins said, "My biggest pain comes from not being able to see the joy and happiness on our players faces on more occasions following a victory."
