[edit] Boise State
Hawkins was promoted to head coach at Boise State to succeed outgoing coach Dirk Koetter on December 2, 2000, after serving as an assistant coach for the Broncos since 1997. In 2004, Hawkins was honored with his second Western Athletic Conference (WAC) Coach of the Year title in three years. Through the end of the 2005 season, he had compiled a 53-11 record with Boise State, including a 37-3 mark in WAC competition with four straight WAC titles. Only Walter Camp, George Woodruff and Bob Pruett had more total wins in their first five years of head coaching. He holds a 31-game WAC winning streak, the longest in conference history. [1]
[edit] Colorado
Hawkins was introduced as head football coach at the University of Colorado on December 16, 2005. [2] Hawkins was signed to a five-year contract paying him $900,000 annually with incentives totalling to $1.5 million. The Colorado football program was left amid controversy over departed coach Gary Barnett's tenure, marked by events such as a recruiting scandal that allegedly involved luring recruits to the Colorado football team with sex and alcohol.
