M- brother-in-law does not dispute. Believes they just kept their home in boise and were there from time to time. Boulder not that far from boise. I have no doubt his family will move to davis.

maybe somewhat of a minor relevent point, but (if true) according to my brother-in-law who lives in boise and who absolutely loves hawkins, his entire family never moved to boulder when he took the cu job, but stayed in boise because they loved the town so much. apparently, they still live there now. again, if true, this may not have sat well with the true believers of cu. recall that tumey never moved to davis during his tenure and that was not at all condoned by the aggie community. now, BIL admits this is mainly based on grocery store sightings of the wife and family and hearsay, but may have some truth to it. hawkings was and still is revered in boise, so why move? hope he moves to davis! BIL is a UCD grad. . . . .but adds: "boulder is a lot more like davis that boise!" is that trouble? I don't think so as hawkins knows davis and is a cali guy.
