We should break out the shoulder pads and helmets like Oklahoma State used to do to make them more physical.

I think that UNR didnt exactly help him keep his commitment. If what is being said is true, these "nasty messages" left on his phone or the taking back of a scholarship, why would you stay committed to a program like that. I understand that commitment means Yes I will go to your school, but there has to be a breaking point. I think that his visit helped, but ultimately unr's coaches sealed the deal for navy.

UNR was the one who showed there true colors in this process packfan. When both recruits visited another school, UNR took back its offers. Where is the commitment to the players? It goes both ways, in college football coaches recruit players and leave for higher contracts, leaving the players sitting there. I guarantee if a bigger recruit would have come along, UNR would have told these kids see you later and used there scholarship. Nothing about a verbal is solid, and its good to see that these kids made the right choice.

I'm sorry, but I am behind this guy 100 percent. People in Montana are complaining that he couldn't win the national championship. HE GOT THEM THERE! I would love to hear what they have to say if the replacement doesn't do the same.

The truth is, he is coming to UNLV, where if he was to make a bowl game, it would be considered a success. Last time I checked, a national championship game loser, is better then a team that doesn't get there at all.

I think that we don't have the money to hire another rookie head coach or a coach without a track record of winning...

However, I think that boosters will actually come up with the money if a quality coach is hired.

There is Tommy Tubberville and John Gruden sitting out there waiting for a call.If Koloskie can hire one of those, he will get the AD job and the money will poor in.
