When will the ‘announcement’ happen?

7
If it doesn't happen by Monday we aren't getting rid of him! Man we need a reset with an all new culture to get it going again ala Odom style! I've said this since the beginning, he should of NEVER gotten this job! He had about half a dozen years of assistant coaching experience then straight to head coach at a school like UNLV, insane! Because of his name and DRF having one foot out the door he got the job! I mean take away the name and just look at the resume, there's no way you would say this was a good hire! I know Dave Rice had no head coaching experience as well but the man had like 20 years of being an assistant coach, big difference!

I would think a lot of the leg work has already been done, or least it has already started to "secure funds"

I wouldn't think we have a Mullen situation where he was seemingly lined up early. NO idea, but it feels like Harp knew Odom was leaving before the Championship game and could repurpose Odom's extension funding for Mullen.

I would be surprised if we could find the money to both buy him out and get 2+ mil a year that it would likely take for a Wade or a Marshall though. Especially with NC State publically courting Wade pretty hard. I think it would be tough to outbid them.

I wouldn’t worry about the plan moving forward.
We’ve got this!

There’s a reason things have been happening the last couple of days. Let’s call it sabotage.

Well if CKK thinks he deserves another year or 2 and it him or his associates doing the sabotaging then we need to run him out of town. I mean u get 4 years injuries not withstanding (this year) and you are doing underhanded shit to keep your job?? That is BS. Go to a Div II school and prove your self and then maybe get another shot somewhere else. KK was here for our S16 run with a packed UNLV home games and NOW with coaching there are 2-3000 thousands . At some point you have to look in the mirror and say that your not living up to your end.

As I said, it’s likely a fluid situation.

Harper has to secure the bag to fire CKK and also there’s probably a final sit down where CKK has to outline his plan and also why would it work this time after failing 4 times. Not only does CKK have to convince the AD but also the people cutting checks for NIL. As an article last week indicated that they were not happy campers, to say the least.

First thing is securing the funds. Someone gets cold feet like that “Howland situation” and it could be a disaster.

I did this once against our football team when we played AFA. It was either during the Sanchez or Arroyo years and I didn’t worry about if I’d win or not. It felt a little wrong to me but I got over it as soon as the ticket cashed into my account.

We've got 10 days before the portal opens. If CKK is still here on Monday we are ****ed. If it was Harper who gave CKK a $100k per year salary boost after the first year and then built a buyout that currently sits at over $2 million then all I can say is what a ****up of a situation.

Perhaps what someone here suggested of moving him to the baseball clubhouse is not a bad idea. Pay him his $800k, remove him from his head coach position, place him on his salary for a few years until he can be Riffed with zero or a small buyout. Now we've got the money to hire a new coach and let's get going.

Never in my life have I bet against one of my teams...until last night. It wasn't a matter of rooting against UNLV because I just knew for certain they would lose and USU would cover. 100% certainty.

I think we have seen what a difference having a big guard like Henley on defense instead of a little guy like dt can change the physical makeup of a team . Hopefully whoever coaches next year will get strong physical players with size.

Well that’s what CKK wanted in his team during his introduction presser, tough and physical but didn’t pan out. Almost immediately went for soft guys because they were hometown guys.

Don't know if this is true, but since being tipped off to it I've started paying attention and it's been true (so far): Grimala won't use the word Rebels in his write-ups. It's either UNLV or the Scarlet and Gray. He's probably one of those with the dumbass opinion that a rebel can only be someone from the antebellum South who supported slavery. Must be that liberal New England upbringing. ...
