Because our brand, conference, football, and basketball teams are about to drop to division 2 and he is leaving tooWhy is he laughing?
I think he's in shock... must've thought we were in good shape with Odom and whatever offer was on tableNo shirt and tie? Can barely hear him. We just hit an iceberg not the most calming body language.
I agree. Apparently UNLV put a considerable offer on the table and Odom accepted the Purdue job which appeared to catch him by surpriseI think he's in shock... must've thought we were in good shape with Odom and whatever offer was on table
He was just reading here on Rebel-Net.Why is he laughing?
He’s obviously disappointed. He made some interesting comments.No shirt and tie? Can barely hear him. We just hit an iceberg not the most calming body language.
Yeah I am sure it is nervous laughter combined with resignation.I agree. Apparently UNLV put a considerable offer on the table and Odom accepted the Purdue job which appeared to catch him by surprise
He seems pretty intent on hiring a specific person in today’s presser. He mentioned hiring someone with HC experience.The good thing is Harper has hired the HC before, he is experienced and I wouldn’t want any other AD in this spot than him!
Well is it going to be long term or short term ? This next hire is critical. Drop the ball and it's going to put us back years. It's already going to put us in a school zone. We will see how how long of one it is shortly.I have confidence in Harper because he is a football guy. Next, he hired Odom. UNLV is in a much better position today than it was when Harper hired Odom.
If we are highly successful there is no way we keep the coach. But a coach with 7-8 wins and a bowl game can be kept quite a while.Well is it going to be long term or short term ? This next hire is critical. Drop the ball and it's going to put us back years. It's already going to put us in a school zone. We will see how how long of one it is shortly.
Couldn't agree more with your read.He seems pretty intent on hiring a specific person in today’s presser. He mentioned hiring someone with HC experience.
Not saying this is personal beef but he seems intent on hitting a big home run with this hire to take UNLV to the next level.
Nah go get coach Saban!Get Shane Steichen out of Indy. 😂
I heard it was more money, but not P5 money. Obviously. To make up for some of the shortfalls, they made an offer like Lon where he’d get a percentage of the gate.He definitely seemed a bit stunned by the last 24 hours and the outcome. Not necessarily surprised but disappointed and appeared to believe we had a good shot at keeping Odom. Based on their relationship over the last two years I suspect there's personal disappointment as well as professional. If it's true that UNLV put a substantial offer on the table, that is really good news. It means Harp was able to raise the $$ necessary to make a competitive (perhaps not equivalent) offer and should be in a good position to do the same for the next HC.
Harper was confident in the quality of coaches being considered. He’s referenced some of those qualities in the presser.Well is it going to be long term or short term ? This next hire is critical. Drop the ball and it's going to put us back years. It's already going to put us in a school zone. We will see how how long of one it is shortly.
Urban retired because of stress. At UNLV is the stress level less than OSU and UF? LOLHarper was confident in the quality of coaches being considered. He’s referenced some of those qualities in the presser.
I would think Harsin is a no brainer hire but Harper mentioned someone with nfl/college experience (could be Urban) reached out to him.
Harper looked all shooked up. Yes the portal open tomorrow but the right Coach can bring them back. He just need the hire that "right" Coach.Harper stated that hiring Barry took 10 days and that he hopes to get it done quicker than that given that the portal opens tomorrow.
For NFL/College experience Joe Judge I believe.Harper was confident in the quality of coaches being considered. He’s referenced some of those qualities in the presser.

We’re on the verge of canceling our athletic department within the next decade. CFB is ruined. We’re broke and it’s been decades of negligence getting us to this point. The sooner people wake up the better.Because our brand, conference, football, and basketball teams are about to drop to division 2 and he is leaving too
Come on, this is out of control. I'd guess the dude spent all night and morning soliciting money and trying to work with Odom, talking to other candidates.No shirt and tie? Can barely hear him. We just hit an iceberg not the most calming body language.
