Craig Smith available

Utah fires Craig Smith before season end. Getting ahead to work on new coach. He had some good years at Utah st. but Mediocre at Utah. Anyone want Smith at UNLV,?

15-12, 7-9 doesn't seem worthy of mid-season firing. It's not good, but let him play it out. I think they just wanted to beat UNLV to the marketplace.

Nie they can start to "inquire" out in the open.

I’m not a fan of that one.

I'd much rather have Kevin. If its a binary choice.

I mentioned Craig long ago that he might be canned and he will get a buyout. Which makes him a candidate to be a good coach that can be hired on our budget.

65 percent winning percentage in his career and lots of experience in comparison to CKK to be an upgrade.

We could do worse (CKK, Menzies) but I think there are better options Harper will pursue. If Craig was hired, I would be fine with it especially if he can put together a good staff.

Not only no on Craig Smith but hell no! He wont he able to bring in the players to UNLV to be a top 1-2 in the conference. I guess if being a middle of the conference team is acceptable then he would be a good candidate. But at that point is that much of an approvment over Kevin?
Harper needs to bring in someone that attracts attention and has proven they can win and bring in talent

could he have won more with Kruger's roster?

Not enough to have made much of a difference. Dont want someone that might have won 2-4 more games then Kevin did. Want someone that can have us playing for the top of the MWC.
