Hawkins, who spend four-plus seasons in Boulder, never had a winning season with the Buffaloes. The 50-year-old finished his career at Colorado with a 19-39 overall record, leaving behind a team that never quite lived up to expectations.
With the impending move to the Pac-10 next year, the univerisity turns its attention to finding a suitable replacement that will rebuild the Colorado program.
Wednesday, Colorado chancellor Phil DiStefano talked with local media about who he would want to see coaching the Buffaloes next season.
DiStefano said he’d like to see “a coach who is either successful now as a head coach or has recent coaching experience either with someone from the Pac 12 or the Big 12. Somebody in a conference similar to, if not equal to, the conference that we’re joining.”
He also reiterrated that the coaching decision would be left up to athletic director Mike Bohn.
Bohn noted that he has already had some interest in the position including former Colorado head coach Bill McCartney and current interim coach Brian Cabral.
LSU’s Les Miles and former Tampa Bay Buccaneers coach Jon Gruden have also been mentioned as possible candidates.
Also mentioned is Air Force coach Troy Calhoun, former Oregon coach and ESPN commentator Mike Belliotti.

The Rise And Fall Of Prashant Batar

"K2T Wisata"

Prashant

Sony Channel on Idiot Box has its 9PM slot booked to the running and hit show Kaun Banega Crorepati Season 4 (KBC4) hosted by none other than the great and charismatic Amitabh Bachchan.
A young guy from Meerut in Uttar Pradesh has achieved a wonderful feat of reaching to a level in the game not done by anybody else so far in this game of its season 4.
He participated in the game with two big dreams if he had won a big amount of 5 crore. First dream was to go for a holiday cum date in Antarctica with Bollywood Actress Deepika Padukone (it seems he has a crush over her) and second dream was to present a BMW to his parents.
His name is Prashant Batar and has become the first person on this show to reach to 1 crore question, answer it correctly and appear for 5 crore question.
But even after reaching such heights stupendously with his promptness and knowledgebase, he had to rest back at an amount of 3 lac 20 thousand only.
He would have safely skipped the show after winning 1 crore with the booty but maybe because of a higher enthusiasm, overconfidence or bad luck he decided to answer for 5 crore question even when he was not at all confident about that answer he gave to Bachchan.
Prashant is fond of watching movies as a hobby and trades in shares as a profession. He is a bachelor but has become famous by his rise and fall in this show.
He got an opportunity on this show to talk to his dream girl Deepika Padukone over phone courtesy Mr. Bachchan.
After topping in fastest finger first on 8th November he was at Rs. 6 lac 40 thousand by the end of that episode with all his life lines intact.
That was after answering eight questions correctly. With only fours questions left for winning 1 crore and equivalent number of life lines unused probably he would have been feeling himself on cloud 9.
On 9th he continued his journey towards 1 crore and then the jackpot question worth Rs. 5 crore and even reached at 50 lac without investing his any life line.
After winning 1 crore he was left with a balance of only one lifeline. But unfortunately even after getting an advice from his father and an alert from Bachchan to answer for 5 crore question only if he very confident, he dared to answer for that which went wrong.
If he had not answered to that question and had decided to leave the show, he would have carried Rs. 1 crore with him but after Rs. 5 crore answer going wrong, he dropped down to Rs. 3,20,000.

The Right Charter For the Greatest Success

"K2T Wisata"


Charleston is settling into fall and making preparations for the coming brief southern winter us northeners amusingly refer to as nothing more than a late fall or early spring. People are exchanging bathing suits for sweaters, so the beaches are less crowded. Only the hardy soul is willing to take a dip into the cooling waters at the Isle of Palms or catch one more curl off the shores of Folly Beach. As warm weather activities on shore are winding down the cooler intercoastal waters are creating an opportunity of another sort.

Just ask Captain Marvie Benford of Benford Fishing Charters and he will tell you the time is right. The spottails are going on a frenzie because they too are making preparations for the winter soon to come. Marvie is new to the charter business, but not new to Charleston saltwater fishing. Although a young captain, having fished the Charleston waters for years, he is very familiar and well educated on the hot spots and techniques of Charleston coastal fishing. To top it off, you cannot beat the enthusiasm he brings to the fishing sport business.

Benford Charters first excursion, a group from Wisconsin, was a major success. The group caught 25 spottails. Four reds ranged from 26 inches to 30 inches. As an added bonus, they caught six sheepshead navigating around docks and a few trout. They fished the outgoing tide, in the morning, and all the reds were caught on cut mullet or live shrimp on the bottom and under a cajun thunder popping cork. Personally speaking, I have fished other charters in the Charleston area and have been disappointed. Catching 25 spottails in one morning, I would have been ecstatic.

Charleston waters contain plenty of structure and plenty of opportunity for the enthusiastic angler. Couple that with home grown experience and you have a killer combination. For reservations contact vacationrick@hotmail.com or Captain Marvie Benford at mrford250@yahoo.com or call 843-729-8079 and tell him Vacation Rick sent you. Spottail bass or red drum are probably one of South Carolina's most sought after fish and are plentiful in Charleston waters. Set the hook and keep your rod tip up.-Vacation Rick of Charleston.
