I’d be surprised if a non db could catch him. I need to watch more film on him though. From the numbers, his accuracy is an issue, but that was also against top defenses. Hopefully he can pass on the MW.

The guy has been playing at the highest level of college football right out of high school for two years. If Mullen and Dennis can get his passing game to where it needs to be with two years of college ball remaining we might be seeing a great QB at UNLV. If Mullen can make that happen in one year we will be looking for a new coach OR we may attract some of the best of the best QB's here to learn from Mullen.

Orji is a very good pickup. I don’t understand the negativity, he’s a national champion that has seen the biggest stages of College Football and has been a starter for one of the CFB premier program. The pressure that comes with that is immense and he will do well here under CDM and playing vs MW competition.

Absolutely dynamic player and will be competing for the starter position. He has the potential to put up funny numbers against this level of competition.

Right? We just pulled 2 P4 QBs with experience as starters at higher levels than any QB we've had in years and the reaction is, meh-

If we drop the next one, that’s three conference games in a row. (We have consistently lost 3 conference games in a row for many seasons, if I’m not mistaken).

In Rice’s last season, that’s when he was fired.

Up until now, UNLV has no good wins and have been uncompetitive in conference.

Before Rice was fired, in OOC they showed ok in Maui, close loss to UCLA, beat Indiana, later beat ranked Oregon, both teams advanced into the deep NCAAT.

In our two straight losses in conference, it’s a combined 40 points (so far, if we lose to USU, add onto it).

I’d have to check, but I think Rice lost the three conference games by 5 or 6 points combined.

With Kruger, recruiting is JV level, Rice’s was much better.

So if you were pitchforking when Rice was midseason, it’s hypocritical not to be pitchforking now.

But I’m one who thought mid-season firing was wrong 10 years ago and I think it’s wrong now. Let them finish their season. They didn’t do anything salty, they just didn’t win enough for the fanbase.

I think we were up BIG on UCLA, like double digits and looked like ucla didn’t belong on the floor with us. That was peak UNLV basketball, post Tark mind you and then it all unravels from there with a bad second half. The flashes were always there with Rice. Unfortunately just didn’t have enough support from an incompetent AD that wilted under pressure.

i might be wrong but I didn’t see TKM firing anyone on her own accord. Wasn’t it a booster that pressured her? I think the stink of it was, if Rice and Co improved, it would be much harder to fire him.

I do think we live in revisionists history with CDR a bit. His last season was highly frustrating, they were rudderless, but the contrast from then to now, yikes.

Nobody on Kevin’s staff is a candidate so just let him coach out the season, can him like tuna on the probable Friday of the conf tournament, following a round 1 loss, and move on.

I hope I’m wrong and they go on a magician run and develop an offensive and defensive calling card that 100 percent doesn’t exist right now. They are just kind of a collection of AAU kids, going through the motions. That’s on the staff.

We play Utah st and San Diego St. next so we will lose 4 in a row however firing the coach now would accomplish nothing. Unless we miraculously win the MWC tourney the season is already over. I really wanted Kevin to succeed but he hasn't. Hopefully Harp is already planning for our next coach. They're might some more candidates available after the season. Eas a fan before Tark. Hopefully I live a bit linger to see Rebels play hard again.

Unless it's the second coming of Brady, we aren't happy. You haven't noticed this yet lol? TBH, more Twitter lately has been like a vacation, even with the crazy Karens.
