Dan Hawkins told me a few days ago that he might wait until at least game week to name a starting quarterback, but I wouldn’t be surprised if he just waits until the Buffs actually get the ball against CSU to reveal his choice between Tyler Hansen and Cody Hawkins.
I mean, why not?
Seems a little silly to give your opponent any extra material with which to prepare. In fact, not saying anything makes the job that much tougher. I wouldn’t be surprised if Steve Fairchild returns the favor. Heck, based on what Fairchild has had to say about his quarterback situation, I wouldn’t be surprised to see the Rams run the Wishbone.
Actually, yes I would. It would be the Wishbone mixed with the Spread and no-huddle. Don’t want to stick out too much.
Of course you have to deal with the question 27 times a day from reporters, but it seems like a small price to pay for some element of surprise.

WHY IS DAN HAWKINS AND COACH KIESAU WAITING TO ANNOUNCE TYLER HANSEN AS THE CU STARTING QB? WE DON'T WANT CODY HAWKINS AS THE STARTER AGAIN. LAST YEAR CODY HAWKINS WAS RANKED THE 12TH MOST EFFECTIVE QB IN THE BIG 12…….OUT OF 12 QBS IN THE BIG 12. IN BOTH PASSING EFFICENCE AND OFFENCE YARDS GAINED. IN 2007 CODY HAWKINS HAD 17 INTERCEPTIONS, IN 2008 CODY HAWKINS HAD 10 INTERCEPTIONS. IN 2008 HANSEN HAD NET RUSHING YARDS OF 261, IN 2008 HAWKINS HAD MINUS RUSHING YARDS OF 23.
HANSEN OFFERS MORE VERSITILTY, CAN SCRAMBLE AND RUN BETTER THAN HAWKINS.
HE CAN SEE OVER THE O LINE BETTER AND CREATES MORE OPPORTUNITY TO MOVE THE OFFENSE. I FAIL TO SEE ANY DEBATE OVER WHO SHOULD START AS QB FOR THE BUFFS IN 2009………IT IS HANSEN.
WHY DOESN'T COACH HAWKINS AND COACH KIESAU JUST NAME TYLER HANSEN STARTING CU QB? WE DON'T WANT CODY H. TO START!!!! __THE LAST TWO YEARS, IN THE BIG 12….CODY HAWKINS WAS RANKED 12TH OUT OF ALL 12 QB IN THE CONFERENCE IN BOTH PASSING EFFICENCE AND OFFENSE YARDS.__IN 2007 CODY H. HAS 17 INTERCEPTIONS, IN 2008 CODY H. HAD 10 INTERCEPTIONS.__IN 2008 HANSEN HAD NET 261 YARDS RUSHING….CODY H. HAD NET MINUS 23 YARDS RUSHING.__
