    Were we still paying him? And if so, now that he’s hired does it lessen our remaining payout to him?

    They almost did this year. Not a bad gig for him to slide into.

    Might not be easy. Wasn't it Bobby Bowden who said, "Boise will be Boise"?

    Good point.

    So... I'll just let this percolate in its juices.

    Grantham just took a DC job at OK state. so UNLV may have an okay D.


    Mullen can coach up an offense with lesser talent. If they get a half D they will win a lot of games.
    I’d bet that UNLV makes the playoff in 3 years or less.

    Should be interesting to have a schedule that doesn’t have teams like Miami, LSU, Texas, Texas A&M, Georgia, Ole Miss, and Tennessee on it.

    He will do good there. No pressure and not a marquee program.

    I do not think they will work together again- not that I care but TG was not happy about how it ended

    Like some others, my first thought was "great, I don't have to hear his passive aggressive drivel or look at his face anymore." My second thought was that at the level to which he has fallen, DM might finally be the smartest man in the room for real now. Good for him.

    It will be an interesting watch into. Partly on the staff he is able to assemble. I know there is an OL coach at Lowe’s currently….
