I dont want him, although he probably will be a better option than whoever they bring in. But, most coaches walk away (or are fired first) while under contract, you cant recruit unless you have years on your contract, so no one fulfils their contract and then retires unless there is a coach in waiting situation
My cousin makes a ridiculous version of it!! It’s in our family get together.
Murray is a ridiculous suggestion. What are these media guys thinking?
Not to mention the actual eye test of football on the field. Some of the worst football product I’ve seen at this school and that’s definitely saying something. Those SJSU and AF games were a sight to be seen. A complete joke in all three phases of the game. Arroyo put a terrible product out there.
Frost is interesting. Yeah, he failed. But he built a program and then had to navigate a major program. That’s all valuable experience.
Ed Lamb would be a disaster. No thanks. Actually no thanks for all of those names, except for Patterson, of course.
Coaching Nebraska football is a lot like coaching UNLV basketball. No thanks, buddy. You're setting yourself up for failure with boosters who are too involved and who have crazy (and probably unattainable) expectations. It's not the 70s - 90s when Osborne could roll into Texas, Florida, and other southern states and just have the pick of the litter. You have national championship expectations with regional talent. A coach at Nebraska is going to have to catch lightening in a bottle to just keep their fanbase happy.
I see USF in his future....which means UNLV should go after him. We can outbid them and I think Mullen would be a very good hire.
Agreed there. Just listing names in the article not mentioned prior. My personal preferred guys would Deion, Patterson or Herman if they were willing. Mullen would be great too, but doesn’t have any ties to the area or conference. I’m sure he could develop them, but something to consider. Sanders doesn’t either, but he is able to recruit nationally and would develop those relationships locally faster than Mullen IMO.
Wow. Without knowing if he was ever in the conversation for our position, that feels like a kick in the nuts.
Where did you see this? The news I saw said he's a serious candidate for the position.

When I was in shape, I followed his water diet..I drank tons and tons of water. Unfortunately, I was peeing everywhere too.
I don't really love Rolo and don't think he's really interesting given the other options. If you look at his historical SOS and SRS he struggled with some absolutely terrible schedules (never had a above average SOS, only two season with SRS > 0).

Edit: saw it on CBS sports now.
FAU hires Tom Herman: Ex-Texas coach makes soft landing with Owls in return to college football
Herman is getting back into the coaching game two years after he was fired at Texas
Will we still like the choice? Or did the choice go to FAU? Should we worry that a top flight coach might have spurned us?
We should always have the belief that top-flight coaches will spurn us. UNLV is where head coaches go to ruin their careers.
Not sure yet. I guess it depends on how it all shakes out.
I think the jury is still out.
And I'm not sure that Patterson is looking to leave TX, but hopefully the AD can get one of these 4 locked in. Unless there's someone else out there that we're completely missing.
