ESPN has his pay estimated at $1.57m; its a big upgrade for him coming from 310k. Everyone is happy. Its a discount compared to Dickert who was making $2.55m.
Most likely true, but I think we also had an issue with Odom already busy interviewing for other jobs instead of preparing the team to play, and an offensive coach who was also busy looking for another job, thus the offense was not prepared to play.The one difference is I would bet anything we score more than 7 points in the title game with Maiava as QB.
My guess is they will be somewhat lower than that. They are in financial trouble, and I find it unlikely they can come up with anything near $2 million. Washington State only averages a little over 20K per game attendance and is dropping!Guessing 1.8 - 2.2 maybe?
I think that is true. I read somewhere that for the first 2 years only OSU and WSU are the final decision makers.Its because none of the new schools have any voting rights until they officially “join”
The one difference is I would bet anything we score more than 7 points in the title game with Maiava as QB.We all do it, we tend to remember gaffes more. But it's not like Maiava didn't throw some that cost Rebs against Kansas in the bowl game.
I'm not suggesting Hajj is a better passer than Maiava, he's not.
But I don't want to read about Hajj's completion percentage and people not realize it's about the same as Maiava's.
Numbers don't tell the whole story but can't ignore them completely. Maiava turns the ball over at a pretty high clip. I think that over the course of the season it's bound to cost you a game. Flip side his arm likely wins us one. So ultimately a wash.
I am pretty sure we were in FG position because I remember saying take no chances and just get in better position.For the biggest game of the season, that single play completely flipped the momentum.
I can’t recall how much time was left on the clock when we got the ball, or exactly where we started on the field … but I do remember thinking at that moment in time that UNLV should just run out the clock instead of pressing it. For us to get the yards we needed in the time that was left on the clock, it was going to rely on using the air on successive plays. And that was a weak spot for us, especially when the defense no longer has to guess run and the whole quirky formation thing is nullified.
The best and safest way to get chunks we needed would have been Hajj scrambles or even designed runs.
But it’s super easy to Monday morning quarterback.
QB hard to say TE is a big downgrade unless this guy comes out of nowhere. No catches in three seasons doesn’t elicit a lot of confidence. We have some good offers and visits on the defensive side hopefully we make up for it there. Signed some WR’s from big schools also, would think good shot at least one of them pans out.The way the transfers are going, I think we are replacing significant losses with very capable players.
I think we upgraded at QB.
Equal replacement (size wise) at OL.
Kept a good RB and brought in a capable one (I’m willing to admit a downgrade from what we lost, though).
A same size TE that we utilize more, hopefully.
More like $375K/year.
More like $375K/year. Wazzu is a G5 school for infamy. Permanently entrenched in.Guessing 1.8 - 2.2 maybe?
It seems like they are trying the old way of UNLV going after a lower division QB. No doubt their money has gotten tight, so they are not going to go after a high price coach. Curious how much they are paying?
Not sure you can find a football, but they may have other items of interest? https://www.collegefootballnow.org/2024labowlapparel.html#/I was at the LA Bowl and wanted to buy a commemorative game day football they had at the souvenir stand for my son but something came up and I had to leave early. Can’t find them for sale anywhere. Any one have any suggestions on where I can find one?
He love UNLV and the possiblity with CDM then.True freshman, Odom/Vance Vice guy.
What is the deal with Jay? Why did CDM want him and Kiffen up the ante?Remove Jay!
