SJSU's coach compared the portal to window shopping. "So and so has entered the portal. That's NICE! Damn we can't afford that! Next!"He really turned the corner too.
UNLV still has severe limitations vs the big schools. And it’ll keep happening.
We have a pretty good NIL budget now he would be a worthy target.He’s going to get paid. Probably Purdue bound, if I’m guessing going with Odom and Scherer.
I hadn't heard Scherer was going to Purdue I thought that was just our own assumptionHe’s going to get paid. Probably Purdue bound, if I’m guessing going with Odom and Scherer.
He’s 1000% going to Purdue.I hadn't heard Scherer was going to Purdue I thought that was just our own assumption
Most likely unless Odom hires his brother from USC to be DC.I hadn't heard Scherer was going to Purdue I thought that was just our own assumption
8 guys hit the portal today so far, https://247sports.com/Season/2025-Football/TransferPortal/?institutionkey=24084.
Camac, Correa, Chittenden, St. John... some big losses if they do end up signing somewhere else.
The number was closing in on 20 this morning. UNLV better be happy they swung for the fences for a coach, otherwise next year could have put UNLV right back to where they were prior to Odom, but with a much weaker MWC in the future. I hope they get NIU along with another team from back east on board, and I hope the staff coming in with Mullen can both recruit replacements and talk some of the players that have gone into the portal into staying at UNLV.Mullen alluded to seeing some portal entries and "testing the market" with some players.
Hopefully we can retain many of these guys.
Truth is we are already losing a ton from just an eligibility standpoint. It seems like a huge chunk of our promising returners are in the portal too now.
Mullen has his work cut out.
