Portal opens up Dec 9?

This offseason is going to be real interesting. I would imagine after the Boise ST game we will know which coaches are staying Win/lose cant wait weeks until the outcome of the College playoffs Dec 20-21 to wait for their HC, OC , DC or Special teams coach to arrive. Poral opens Dec 9 closes Dec 28. Wonder where our previous QB will get his BIG payday?? Early signing is Dec 4-6.

I guess I’m super old school

And it’s jading me.

I truly believe in loyalty, unity, I think it’s one of the keys to making a program go.

That impacts my view of Marion. I don’t like people that aren’t fully committed to the task at hand. If you’re always looking, you’re not all in. You’re putting yourself first, I think the program/team comes first.

Not having that, I really do think creates issues, whether hidden or in plain sight.

Assistants are almost always keeping an open eye … they want to move up. But to be actively looking out, intently … rubs me the wrong way. Always will. We had a hoops assistant that couldn’t care less about UNLV and it hurt the program short and as it turns out, long term.

So if Marion is flirting heavily again, I really don’t care if he goes. I really don’t. Yeah, I like the impact he’s had but it’s not like we are talking rocket science either. He wasn’t even the first choice.

The key is Odom. He will make the right decisions regarding an OC if it comes to that. How do you not trust in the architect of what we are seeing. I’d much rather have a very stable coaching staff that is here with Odom for as long as possible, all on the same page.

It may change our offensive style, maybe it becomes less spread and more geared towards traditional offense. I have no problem with that. I do somewhat with basketball because it became our identity. We aren’t married to go go. I do like the TCU-ish type defense though. Active and swarming, players being able to thrive in multiple positions, speed based …

I’m putting the cart before the horse maybe, I guess I get a little sick of malcontents when the going is good.

Never Have We Ever…

Never Have We Ever played in the conference title game.

Never Have We Ever been ranked in either the AP, Coach’s or BCS/CFP polls.

Never Have We Ever played in bowl games back to back years.

Never Have We Ever played in anything other than a bottom tier bowl game.

Never Have We Ever won the conference.

And not in 40 years have we won 10 regular season games.

And not in 40 years have we had back to back winning seasons.

It took Odom all of two seasons to do what a dozen coaches covering several decades were unable to do combined. Pretty amazing what a good coach can do.

I'm not usually petty..But...

Hey @wolfgang jayn how you feeling right now?

I tried to look up info on the University of Nevada and found nothing. Oddly enough unr.edu takes me right to your University's website.

You are and will forever be UNR no matter how much you try to distance yourself from your city.

Happy holidays!

Enjoy Chode for the next 4 years....

Important FBS results this week

Michigan upset #2 Ohio State, this will drop Ohio state, and push Boise up.

Syracuse upset #6 Miami, this changes the math on our loss, and possibly moves them up to a mid 20's ranking

#15 South Carolina upsets #12 Clemson, there is a very small possibility that UNLV will be ranked over Clemson. Never thought I would see the day.

Memphis upsets #17 Tulane, which possibly adds Memphis to the rankings, and drops Tulane out.
-more importantly, this crucial victory paves the way for UNLV for the playoffs.

Wyoming upsets WSU, helps the "MW metrics". Sorry to our WSU guests here, but this one is pretty bad. If it makes you feel better, SJSU just beat Stanford.

Air Force crushes SDSU. "metrics".

Baylor crushes Kansas. I was hoping for an upset here to help us on the strength of schedule, but Kansas put in good work for us last week.
