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.

Thanks for going out of your way to keep us up on how things are going for you out in Ely, Jason. I look forward to reading each of your blogs so that I can get an inside look on how you guys are doing and how you guys are getting along as a team. Your thoughts are greatly appreciated. Thanks again, Jason.

Cannon, here's the link to the clip you asked for.

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).

Fastcamron--

Oh, I have flaws, but their not the intellectual kind. I'm shorter than I'd like to be, I can't golf as well as I'd like to, and I wish I had more patience for people like you.

Your last statement regarding taxes explains a lot. You're a mis-informed Republican. You should probably stick to the Review Journal.
