No. They are a team we can actually beat.

Ooooh...good point. On topic, maybe we can dummy down the conference a little further with the next round of alignment, and really be able to compete (now)? Think how proud Burman would be of our budget compared to these fine institutions...I can just hear him say it now, "It is great that we now have a conference we can compete in with similar athletic budgets". Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Crazy move by UNLV, but that must mean the money is coming in. It isn't a bad move. If they can get budgets in order and some facilities in place over the next 4 years, that will be more beneficial than a lot of things.

Probably not a great hire for immediate success, but he really can't do any worse than his predecessors.

I have no reason whatsoever to base this on. I have no idea who this potential coach is or who the potential donors are, so this next statement is 100% irrational. Still, for some reason, I can't help myself from predicting a drastic rise of UNLV football followed by NCAA sanctions :lol:

Yeah the AD had to pull the trigger with all that money on the table from the outside. No way she'd survive if she didn't take the chance. Whether he wins or not is a diff story, but the money is and was a necessity.
 
Hell, if they use some of the money to buy an OC and DC that know what they are doing, he can just take a back seat and let them run the show.

That's what it's sounding like from initial reports. May have not been getting along with people wanting traditional Wisconsin run-it-down-your-throat football and his spread offense.

Early names for new HC at Wisconsin:

Paul Chryst - HC at Pitt, was OC at Wisc under Bielema
Darrell Bevell - OC for Seattle Seahawks
Greg Schiano - former Tampa Bay HC, former Rutgers HC
Dave Aranda - current DC at Wisconsin
 
Doesn't surprise me about Andersen leaving.. heard Alvarez is a control freak and quite the prick. Because Youngstown hasn't "officially" offered Pelini as far as we know.. Wouldn't shock me at all to see Barry throw the bank at him and hire him. No brainer there.
