Posted on: Players on championship team always worked hard

How could Tark be "uncertain" about where LJ--the heart and SOUL of that team-- was?

I love LJ...LOVE LJ...but, really, he couldn't show up for THAT? I hope he has a fantastic excuse.

Actually, the solution for making UNLV a better football team as well as give the university a chance at hiring a big-name coach is simple: The MWC needs to become a BCS conference. End of story.

If the MWC was granted inclusion into the BCS cartel the positive by-products would be innumerable. Being part and parcel to a BCS conference would validate every single program in the Mountain West Conference. As a result, you would not have top flight coaches turn down the UNLV job--not because they are a historically bad football team--but because there is ZERO chance to win a National Championship.

Top notch coaches are just as competitive as top notch athletes. They enjoy the challenge--but ONLY if the reward is on par with the challenge. If the right kind of big-name hire is out there, with a chip on his shoulder and something to prove, I have no doubt he would consider UNLV if we were in a BCS conference simply because a.)he knows that he would be able to lure higher caliber recruits and b.)he would have a shot to win a BCS Championship with those recruits.

Yes, the solution is simple and obvious: The MWC MUST be included in the BCS. Period.

Posted on: In the end, Mountain West took the money and walked

And I meant "they're" not "their"...

I bet you were all fired up to rebut my "lack of intellectual flaws" statement but then that smile turned upside down with this correction.

Let this be a living lesson to you all that Firefox spell check doesn't recognize the miss-use of homophones (these are words that SOUND alike but have different meanings and spellings).
