Barnett's Future

One rumor emanating from Betsy Hoffman's departure is that Governor Owens and Coach Barnett friend and confidant on the Regents, Pete Steinhauer cut a deal that Barnett could stay if Hoffman were to go. Well, in the wake of CU's 70-3 drubbing at the hands of Texas today, I wonder if we can make the argument that, "forget the scandals, the guy can't coach." Barnett has a great coaching record, but for that matter so do a number of others who clearly overstayed their welcome. After too long, players tune a coach out. If Colorado aspires to football eminence and wants that to be a rpiority (not that I think this should be in college), then performance dictates that they need a coaching change.
