I was excited to see the team playing so well early in the season and in the early 12 Pac games.  It gave me hope that there would be continuing improvement and hope for a tourney team this year and a solid tourney team going forward.  The current skid is very disappointing.  I expected this team to have a few bad losses and they've had those, but right now, they are also not showing their potential upside.  I'm at a bit of a loss about what should be done.  I don't expect Bowlsby to replace him this year and I used to think that 5 years is ok to give a coach who seems to have a clue and who is showing improved play and recruiting.  It would take a strong finish for Dawkins to meet that in my mind.  I would wait until the end of the year and re-visit the issue.  If the skid continues, I would dump him. 

Cheers,
Pete F.
