I would disagree that it was a "crappy" bowl game. The top team in the MW is chosen for the LA Bowl (if they don't go to the national playoffs). I believe that UNLV got $1.6 million for it.

It’s pretty bad when no one cares the coach is complimenting a dui killer and what a great kid he is.

In an era where families are priced out of the professional sports market, I can absolutely see unlv hockey taking off in Las Vegas. 10-15 bucks to watch college hockey? It’ll take off.

60 bucks to see the AHL team in Henderson?

whatever the Howard vs UNLV (sorry for the reminder) line was and multiply that by a couple thousand and that would be the line. UNLV is just a club team playing a storied college hockey program that’s won multiple championships with multiple nhl draft picks.

It’s a huge win, adds legitimacy to unlv hockey.

I saw that Heisman trophy winner Travis "Simp" Hunter and QB Shaduer Sanders seemed to be arguing quite a bit after several plays.

Cal wasn't so bad, but a 5-8 LA Tech, yeesh

I believe Marshal was scheduled for that game but because nearly their entire team hit the portal they dropped out. La Tech was quickly substituted

Even if we win out, I don't think there is saving interest. Offseason will need coach search posts on all socials. We are no longer stopping the bleeding, we are full blood transfusion mode. I am glad we won, for the players, and nothing more.

Harper seem seem uneasy greeting people making his rounds when only 5k in the seats. I don't know if wins alone can save kruger from that aspect of an disinterested following.. but its the same thing every year. Wait till next year. Well everyone constantly waiting until next year and same result.

I thought my 7.5 years of schooling was a lifetime. I hope and pray that he at least earned a Masters degree in that time. If not, he’s a true idiot, even worse than @Bullmastiff 1

Even more context..

Now to be fair hockey has the most amount of 'luck' of the major sports. Harmless shot from 20 feet out catches a skate takes weird angle goes in. Your team dominates puck possession triples the opponents high danger chances and somehow you're down 1-0 or 2-0.

If UNLV played Denver 10 times they are losing 9 of them. This just happened to be the one. And it's pretty damn impressive regardless.

So who are all the NBA coaches who later transitioned to college and had success? Now compare that to the list of busts and you will know my opinion on this idea.

I would have liked to go back to the Guaranteed Rate Bowl vs the other Kansas team, we would have been a better draw than Rutgers.

Sneaky good game there.

Not to mention a potential 3rd win over a conference we might be trying to get into. (I mean pipe dream but still)

More context.

Denver had 5 power plays to UNLVs zero. That's nuts. Hockey refs almost always give you a soft call when the penalties get that lopsided. (It's not like some unwritten rule but you see it a lot)

And just where did you come up with the notion that the Pac-2 is paying anybody's exit fees? Why, pray tell, would some of the traitors be suing the MW over exit fees if the Pac-2 was paying them?

And yeah, we have known about the windfall amount for a year now. Your article is from Dec 22, 2023.

What do you think of the actual hire? What's the consensus among Cougs fans?

Not taking shots here, I think New Mexico may have actually made the better hire. Eck completely rebuilt Idaho program with limited resources. Vs Rogers who took over a program that was already rolling similiar to Bobby Hauck.

They will lose that lawsuit.

Just to illustrate how bad this hire really is and to underscore how poor the leadership is with the G-5 PAC it was reported that the total gross settlement with the departing PAC-12 members on all issues approached approximately $255 million. Instead of using the windfall to pay debt and to hire a really good football coach they blew close to $70 million just to pay the exit fees for the 4 departing members of the MWC. With an extra $35 million WSU could have paid CDM’s salary for a decade.

Pretty bad when there are no posts regardless of game outcome, win or lose. Twitter was...crickets. Avg view count analytics of 100-900 views per post (even from official UNLV feeds) and in the 10's for non verified accounts with over 10k followers.. no replies, no favorites (roughly 0-5 each). Not even the hate threads, and that's rare considering it's Twitter. You've even lost the haters, not even they have anything to say anymore.

Yes and no.

The game thread and comments after the result would have been pretty over the top.

Maiava is the second coming ! Why didn't we pony up the money! If USC won.

Maiava was a bum ! Good riddance! Enjoy that NIL money! If Rebs won.
