Thought this was interesting. There are some on this board disappointed in our QB pickup. Well, Michigan insiders are saying that they're going to get Mikey Keene in the portal.
Depth. They just signed the #1 QB in the class for a crap ton of NIL, cant see him not getting the nod to start. Interesting that Keene thought hes better off sitting on the bench on Michigan than starting somewhere,I don't know if this is for depth, or if they're thinking he's going to be their guy, but I thought it was interesting either way.
Hopefully we DID! Unless we got someone else coming. I do think this one sees the field MUCH better and can spread the field better. Seems like a gamer. Might be able to pull a upset or 2. Fingers crossed!Was discussing it with somebody here … he’s one I would not want. Saw him play enough. Feast or famine, very questionable decisions. Experience would be great but I felt like we could do better.
lol, funny to say this. But we gotta change our thinking a bit. We will probably be ranked in the top 25 or close to it, deserved or not, based on this season and following it with hiring a proven coach.Hopefully we DID! Unless we got someone else coming.

IF we can upgrade most of the 50 some players we lost than i will be a happy camper. WE lost a TON! We were just one slight upgrade at QB from being 13-1 . I imagine that would of been our record if we had the NM or Reno QB!lol, funny to say this. But we gotta change our thinking a bit. We will probably be ranked in the top 25 or close to it, deserved or not, based on this season and following it with hiring a proven coach.
If we pull two upsets, we might be undefeated.
We will be the favorite in the vast majority of games.
I know, I know … tough to get used to. We will have the target on our backs.
Exactly. I don't like the fact that they do pre-season polls, because based on perception, it's much easier to stay ranked higher than if you start way down the list, even if you perform well. But it will benefit UNLV for a change, so that's cool I guess.lol, funny to say this. But we gotta change our thinking a bit.

Some of the current players that entered the portal have since come back to UNLV, so that should help. But either way, we lost a ton of impact players. I'm hoping CDM will be able to pull back more of these UNLV portal guys to return next year.IF we can upgrade most of the 50 some players we lost than i will be a happy camper. WE lost a TON!

WE had a great year with Williams. I could only imagine if we had one of the TOP 3 QBs in the MWC. IMO we would of been in the playoffs. Deservingly or not.lol, funny to say this.

Maybe. Probably.WE had a great year with Williams. I could only imagine if we had one of the TOP 3 QBs in the MWC. IMO we would have been in the playoffs. Deservingly or not.
I agree. We were not going to beat most of these TOP 15 teams if any. Things would have to go are way in multiple areas to have a chance. Hopefully Boise St keeps it close. Getting blown out will take away from the non P4 schools.Maybe. Probably.
But we’d have been 45-10’d in a playoff.
We were pretty good, depth better than ever …. But still not P4 depth and P4 starter talent across the board. Never say never, but I cannot imagine battling favorably against some of the teams I’ve watched.
That’s not a shot at our program, we’ve come a long way. But you don’t go from 0-100 in two years in football. We went 0-75 which is still incredibly impressive.

Google a picture of Scherer when he was at Missouri. He looks like a middle age actor trying to play someone in a movie. No knock on the guy. Fantastic coach that I hope will come back one day. But the years haven’t been kind.He looks like he's 40 in this PIC.
Plus, he was a “member of the media”, and seemed to be well liked, there’s always some benefit of the doubt there.We will probably be ranked. Just saying we will finish the year in the top 25 final polls and yes, CDM will be able to use his contacts to keep UNLV in the preseason rankings just my guess. Which will be very helpful considering the schedule next year.
For what is worth, UNLV isn't the worst DI football program ever. We're only the 6th worst.Maybe. Probably.

Was Gottlieb well liked?Plus, he was a “member of the media”, and seemed to be well liked, there’s always some benefit of the doubt there.
Then again, it didn’t help Gottlieb at all, lol.
Don’t know, really.Was Gottlieb well liked?
And moving on up!For what is worth, UNLV isn't the worst DI football program ever. We're only the 6th worst.
