Dan Hawkins, the head coach of Colorado is full of recruiting regrets in regards to one of the teams’ quarterbacks. That’s pretty harsh, considering that said quarterback is his son, Cody. The player has already been benched for not performing as well as expected, so it’s gotta be hard to here that his dad wishes he would have never recruited him…
In actuality, it has nothing to do with Cody’s skill level and instead has to do with his dad’s feelings that he shouldn’t have been a part of a team that was clearly in a rebuilding year. Says the coach,
“Here’s …read more

I have a confession to make. I didn’t think that the Independence Bowl would that great. Alabama…7-6. Colorado…6-7.
But put too mediocre teams up against one another, and what do you get? Four quarters of exciting football, apparently.
At the end of the first quarter, I was fairly bored. Sure, there were a few interesting plays, but Alabama was dominating the game, as I expected they would.

At halftime, Alabama was still …read more
