Washington State hires South Dakota State HC

It doesn't always need to be bad to have zero west coast ties. Odom really had no west coach ties when he took over UNLV, and they did most of there recruiting from the south, and look what that did for UNLV. So far of the five recruits for UNLV under Mullen, four are from Florida, and one from Texas. Also all of the coaching staff he has brought in came from back east.

With the portal now I don't think regional ties matter as much like you said. Football recruiting use to be a lot more regional in the past. Now not so much.

I think it helps, in regards to HS recruiting. Knowing coaches and programs etc. But with the portal now..Not so much.

UNLV Hockey

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.

Washington State hires South Dakota State HC

Scroll up to read my thoughts. But to summarize, I think this is a shit hire. We could and should have done much better.

My idiot Coug brethren? Most of them think this is a home run hire. And that Rogers apparently bringing his entire staff of completely non-FBS experienced coaches with zero West Coast ties is great news. And that he apparently will be bringing a bunch of his FCS players to bolster the roster is wonderful news.

It's definitely high on the list but I might put Caddyshack ahead of it. Or Airplane.
