Great Season!

What an amazing run by this group of guys the past two years. My dad was a K-State grad back in the 60s, and they had the absolute worst program for 40 years till Bill Snyder turned them around. My dad finally got to watch his alma mater be relevant in football. As a UNLV grad and Vegas native, I feel this is the same path I've been traveling. Just waiting for the Rebels to awaken. I think that time might have officially come. What a time to be a Rebel football fan.

Kamran Williams is staying a Rebel

A good story on Kamran. Went through a coach change going into his senior year but, he embraced the circumstances and showed his leadership. Doing the same for us with the coaching change. I like the kids character and leadership. Go Rebels.

Odom has always given credit for al of the positives for the defense. He calls it "his" defense.

Though in these situations, who knows how much Odom was there for a part of the scheming, playcalling, etc.

That being said, I think Scherer is qualified to be a stand alone DC, he may have been that already.

If Mullen wanted to stay I would have been more than happy with that.
I'd love if Scherer wanted to stay. I'd love to see what his defense could do if he came back. But since Odom and Mullen are friends, Odom might have had a side bar conversation with Mullen on who Odom was planning on bringing with him to Purdue.

Mullen was the HC at Mississippi State when Scherer was in high school. He or someone on his staff could have very well tried to recruit him. Though to your point, even if Mullen tried to recruit him and if there is an established relationship; there is no way its to the same level with the student/mentor relationship that Odom has with him.

I wish he would have but also get it head coaches want to work with people they know and he probably has no relationship with him.

Mullen didn't even give the guy a chance. I'm guessing Odom didn't give him a chance at Purdue but, I'm not sure. We will see him on the sidelines somewhere in the near future.

Great Season!

I always thought the best UNLV could do was maybe win 6-7 games, if not no big deal there’s basketball season. Someone says 11 wins back then and you’d think they are smoking crack. Not the case anymore, 6-7 wins would be a disaster probably now that the standard is set.

11 wins and a bowl win is incredible. 20 wins in 2 years is even more so, CDM has to keep the train rolling next year and bring in even better and more talented players to get to that next stage.
With Zach Arnett coming in as the Defensive Coordinator I think that will help. He has been in the SEC with a nationally ranked team. I am sure he can put together a great list of potential players for CDM.

He was excellent at adjustments. When you think of how much better our defense played in the second half of games this year. It is a shame we can’t keep him.
