The University of Colorado announced Sunday afternoon that it had fired head football coach Karl Dorrell after the team lost its first five games of the season, often in embarrassing fashion.
Dorrell was hired by the school in February 2020 after it lost first-year head coach Mel Tucker, who left for a better contract at Michigan State.
Dorrell started off decently, going 4-2 in his first year as coach, sailing through the shortened season due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The wheels quickly came off the program, though, as Dorrell went 4-8 last season and then lost numerous starters and talented young players who transferred to another school.
