He has zero business coaching at this level. Why did we even hire him? Wow. How could it take so long for you guys to realize this? When you hire a health teacher, from a high school. Now you just want him fired. Fan base for Unlv is not very bright. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Addressing UNLV's need for a new stadium was a huge justification for the public funding used to build the stadium.

Gotta love all the experts that know everything about UNLV and their new stadium, lol. Raiders don't happen without UNLV.. I'm still in favor of BYU and UNLV scheduling each other on an annual basis. (BYU currently does this with Boise and USU, and those games usually sell out). UNLV is going to need some help filling that new stadium on occasion. And one thing BYU brings is fans (not just BYU fans, but lots of Mormon UNLV fans come out for this game too). Otherwise....could get ugly. What if there are only like 10,000 fans filling that new stadium for every game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest #1Stunner Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 For UNLV, would it make sense to try and run Army, Air Force, or Navy's offensive system? Those schools don't ever get elite talent, yet they win. I know it's probably not what most UNLV fans want, but what if they at least won games? UNLV really really needs a way to win games or they are going to not have any fans left. The Raiders are about to steal their few remaining fans.

Sanchize was a great salesman when it came to pumping people up on what he wanted to build at UNLV. But that was the problem, he was just a salesman--not a D1 HC. By the end of the year his salesmanship had a direct hand in raising over $40 million in donations for the Fertitta Football Complex, and towards renovations for the Lied Athletic Complex and Sam Boyd Stadium....and he's brought in better recruiting classes than any other coach in recent memory. One shred of optimism UNLV football fans can get behind after yet another head coach fire FLOP is unlike HAUCK.... who left the cupboard completely bare after his departure at UNLV----at least Sanchez will leave the program to the next coach with a team with some depth to be competitive and a $32 million practice facility...plus a $2 billion stadium by 2020 will help things along. To be certain- you don't have a $2B stadium. You are borrowing one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
