Do the winners play each other? Or just the two match ups az vs Indiana and us vs wsu

I know Harper has said he wants someone with HC experience. I think it was a mistake in terms of PR.

Let's say UNLV has a list of 10 candidates all HCs.

Let's say they strike out for whatever reason. Get outbid, dream job suddenly opens up etc.

Now what?

So reason for USC/Utah thread, I think USC DC Alex Grinch should at least be on the radar based on his resume.

I hope Harper is able to get a guy with HC experience. Skeptical. Bot because of his ability but what we all know us the biggest issue. Money.

*not about doxxing. This is a joke*

Considering Barry Odom was making $1.85 million per year as an assistant coach, they must have opened the bank to pay for this contract. I fully expect he will be the highest paid coach in the MWC! What do others think?

is that true?

Name gaining the most traction. Slam dunk hire for UNLV if they pulled it off.

Ed would kill it in this city. Who doesn't want to see that guy get introduced at next Knights game, wind the goal horn and break it!

Sure Ed as purely an X and O guy might be behind a guy like a Patterson or Peterson, but he can recruit, he could put a staff together I'm sure and makes UNLV a player in the portal.

It will also allow me to create the Ed Orgeron secret decoder ring for press conferences so people can understand what the hell he's saying.

Make this happen UNLV. Not just for football but so I can be rich off the royalties of the secret decoder ring..

Tears of Joy ? I hope it in reference to the new coach. It would be smart to keep the players informed. Especially the good ones because the portal opens today i think. Login to view embedded media

The Bucs are trash and Brady has aged 31 years over the past 4 months.

It makes me a tad happy. I don’t wish a divorce on anyone so I’m not making fun of that, but I love watching the fall.

Still great and will go down as the greatest NFL qb ever, but…HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Am I the only one who HATES having season tickets and then is forced to buy tickets at some other Venue IN TOWN?

Came across this article about our current QB commit being offered by Pitt who just had their QB commit flip to ND. Have to imagine with the coaching change that he’ll flip in short order.

I don’t want to make a thread about every rumor out there but there seems to be some legs. Was in the newspaper he and Peterson are candidates. Either would be a home run, hope it’s true.

and go local with DeMarco Murray? He’s local. He’s experienced. No head coaching experience. But we got lucky with locals Kruger and La Rocque. If Murray can tap into the Gorman pipeline, I’m good with it.

Here’s how local news covers the head coaching search.

Arroyo is fired

Erick Harper says he’d like someone with head coaching experience.

LVRJ reporter googles “what college coaches are available?”

LVRJ reporter then makes a list of the available coaches they have heard of.

LVRJ reporter announces these as potential candidates.

Probably…..

You only get one chance to make a first impression. Coach Prime met with his players today and here is the video. It's 7 minutes of very serious talk. He let them know that things will be very different.

UNLV is getting votes in both polls again. It's been a while since we've seen that. There is no love in the Bracketology though. How can both polls put a team anywhere from 30th to 40th in the country with no bracket love?

Perhaps that win yesterday will bump them up a little bit more, but it's only one win against a team that isn't all that impressive anymore, much like that Dayton win.

Anyway, so far Kevin seems to have taken after his dad. Hopefully he finds more success and stays a while. God knows this university has no patience with coaches. Ask football.

You guys can describe what your ideal characteristics and traits that you want in your coach.
What I want is a guy who blatantly honest, doesn't care what the social media say, work hard, relates well to the community, family man, care about the players, care about the school, care about education, and HATES LOSING. That is all I want. I thought we had that in Arroyo. FUUUUUUUUCCCKKKKKKKKK!!

After having an opportunity to watch this UNLV team we know they are gritty and play tough defense. But a third scorer will be needed. Based on what I have read IC was brought in to start at the 4. I anticipate Rodriguez will slide over to 3 and Parquet will be the 6th man off the bench. Do you feel IC is capable of averaging 12 ppg and 8 rpg? If so, this team could be really good down the road.

Tom Herman.
Gary Patterson.
Dirk Koetter (Because he's always mentioned)
Rick Pitino.

Will the new 12 team playoff have a chillin effect on future conference expansion? Because why would Utah, Arizona, ASU or Colorado move to the BIG 12 when they all ready have a seat at the table? Other than the PAC expanding I don’t see much else happening.

He will be on someone's radar as a coaching prospect.

Donte Williams who has more than a dozen years of experience coaching defensive backs and is regarded as one of the nation's top recruiters, remains on the USC staff in 2022 as defensive backs coach and defensive passing game coordinator after serving as the Trojans' interim head coach in 2021

Apparently we still have a chance at a bowl game. Sounds like multiple 5-7 teams may have to fill spots this year and I guess UNLV (assuming a win vs UNR) would be #2 on the list because of grades.
Is it bad that I’m excited about possibly backing into a bowl at 5-7 only to get slaughtered by Liberty? Lol only at UNLV would an 8 loss season be considered somewhat successful.

He is available and here's his Buyout from Auburn. Hopefully we can get a decent discount since he getting BIG $$$$ from an SEC school. Lol

Harsin will receive $15.3 million (70% of the remaining amount on his contract) for his buyout. Half of that is due within 30 days to be followed by followed by four annual payments of the remaining balance, according to 247Sports' Brandon Marcello. Auburn is still paying off Malzahn's buyout of $21.5 million as it embarks on yet another coaching search.
