I am drafting an email to Jim Livengood that sums up my feelings and will post it here later. I have supported this team for 25 years. This is the lowest I have ever felt.

This is horrible.

I wouldn't even wish it on a UNR fan.

Rock bottom. And it sucks.

I guess that's all I have to say about UNLV football.

Call me stunned because I really thought Hauck was a smart hire.....boy was I wrong......we had Tark after y'all did, so maybe y'all should give Pat Hill a call.

I'm being dead serious. He'd be good to build the football program to a decent plateau and then y'all can get a buckaroo to replace him after that's accomplished.

Pat Hill coached for UNLV before he ended up at Fresno. Just FYI

I don't know if it matters who UNLV hires to coach that football team. They must have built Sam Boyd Stadium on some sacred indian burial grounds or something because that football team is cursed. Even the coaches who have had some success there go through stretches where they are absolutely horrible.

But if Rebel fans want to find someone to blame for tonight's loss, I would suggest Rebels2K3. He jumped in on the Nevada-USF thread to gloat over how we blew the game, just like how he started the infamous "Beatdown" thread in 2008 after UNLV took a 10 point lead on us. That is bad mojo.

Dont give up! You're a great fan to have stood by your team! But still I would write the letter expessing your concerns!

Done.

This school is currently unwilling to hire anyone who can fix this. Don't think I will attend another game. First time in 25 yrs I've said that.

I was considering taking UNLV up on the 2 for 1 ticket offer, but my better half had a headache all day so we opted for an easy astronomy outing out at Red Rock Canyon..........when we got in the car & heard the game was tied 14 - 14 w/ 5 mins left I said "guess we made the right call on the evening's activity........then listened to the debacle of a loss on the way home.

I have NO DESIRE to attend any of the remaining home games.

You're a good guy so I say this with the utmost sincerity.

I don't think complaining to Livengood is the best approach. He just gave Hauck an extension, thereby showing what an astute judge of coaching potential he is. So go to the top. Let your president know what a bumbling fool both this AD and football coach are. No, Livengood won't be fired too but consider this. What good will it do for Hauck to be fired if Livengood just hires another marginally qualified guy to replace him. Maybe complaining to the prez will get him to take the decision making process away from Livengood and put it in the hands of some former UNLV players who actually know a thing or two about hiring a HC.

Anyway, from somebody who's been there and done that, I feel your pain.

Don't blame you. That is pathetic. It is hard to get excited about UNLV football, when they are this low.

UNLV doesn't have the money. Instead of an "up and comer", they need to grab a proven coach, who has flamed out recently, but who is a proven commodity.

Pat Hill?
Bobby Petrino?
Rick Neuheisel?

All of those and add Dan Hawkins and Ralph Fridgen.

In another thread I said that your AD should look at FIU's HC, Cristobal. But Rutgers couldn't lure him away from FIU, so not sure UNLV would be able to.
Because he's the hero SDSU deserves, but not the one it needs right now...and so we'll hunt him, because he can take it. Because he's not a hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector...a dark knight. -Commissioner Gordon on Rocky Long

I feel your pain. After the last 3 years with Mike Locksley I thought Lobo Football was dead for eternity. Then Davie came along and things are looking up. Yeah we just got rolled by Tejas, but the score doesn't show the improvement that UNM has made. UNLV will get the right guy. You guys have the potential to be a beast in college football. Don't quit on your team. Do everything in your power to make things better. Put pressure on the administration, encourage friends and family to go to games. Keep supporting the program. It will get better.

It is plain and simple but UNLV still doesn't get it, you will not build football program on the cheap, spend some $$$ and hire real coach.

As bad as UNLV has been - this program has really never been this bad. We all hated Sanford, but I dont recall him ever losing to an FCS team, let alone two. We've actually declined considerably under Hauck, which I wouldn't have thought was possible after Sanford left such a mess of a program.
