Agreed. Not having top notch facilities goes much higher than Bohn. Getting rid of Bohn gives CU another 3 or 4 years of doing nothing but give false platitudes about how they want to be a big time football program.
I bet if I looked up old archives when Bohn was hired you'd find the same type of articles about how Tharp didn't do this, didn't do that and Bohn would have to come in and "change" it.

Bohn got fired because he sucked. 2 miserable football hires bankrupt the AD. That's all on him
So they waited for him to hire another coach before they fired him ? How is it then all on him ?

Uhh he was the AD. The ultimate say came down to him
Should have fired him before but I don't think anyone could foresee firing Embree 2 seasons in. It would have been too short of a turnaround to hire an AD mid-season and then hire a coach.

1. Oregon: The Ducks' football facilities are among the best in the nation. And a new football operations building will make things even more outrageously impressive.
2. USC: The Coliseum is the biggest and most famous Pac-12 stadium. But the new, super-fancy John McKay Center, a 110,000-square foot facility that will house the USC football program as well as all athletic department academic and training support, is a game-changer for a program that long lagged on facilities.
3. Washington: The Huskies have been upgrading football facilities for years, but the big one is the renovation of decrepit Husky Stadium. Pair a great stadium with an unbelievable location and you could end up with one of the nation's best game-day experiences.
4. California: Across-the-board upgrades have seen Cal go from just about worst to first over the past five or six years. Strawberry Canyon has long been a great place to put a stadium. Now renovated Memorial Stadium will be as fancy-pants as its site is beautiful.
5. Stanford: Strong in just about every area as well as a well-executed stadium renovation before the 2006 season.
6. UCLA: The good: The Rose Bowl is a great, though off-campus, venue. And it's getting renovated, too. The bad: An 80-yard practice field.
7. Colorado: Great stadium and solid overall facilities. Still, things are a bit cramped and the Buffs could use an indoor facility.
8. Arizona State: If the renovation of Sun Devil Stadium happens -- it's only in the earliest stages of fundraising -- the program will make a leap into the top three or four. Arizona State lacks nothing in terms of facilities, but nothing blows you away (though the weight room is pretty impressive).
9. Utah: A new football building will bolster the Utes' facilities, addressing a long-standing issue. Overall, Utah has good, well-maintained facilities across the board.
10. Arizona: Good stadium and the North End zone project will make it better -- probably boosting the ranking here several notches. But there is a reason Mike Stoops took a shot at the program's football facilities a few months after he left.
11. Oregon State: The Beavers really lack nothing. Other than bells and whistles. But those count here.
12. Washington State: The Martin Stadium renovation will give the Cougars a substantial upgrade. And, not unlike the Beavers, the Cougs aren't lacking anything they need. Further good news is athletic director Bill Moos was the guy leading the charge at Oregon, when the age of bells and whistles began in the conference.
