92.9 FM ESPN's Jason & John Show discussed Bill Belichick to UNC, Rich Rodriguez to WVU, & Mullen to UNLV.
AUDIO:
Dan Mullen, the former head coach of Mississippi State and Florida, has been named the new head football coach at UNLV. He replaces Barry Odom, who left for Purdue after a successful tenure, including consecutive Mountain West title game appearances. Mullen, known for developing quarterbacks like Dak Prescott and leading high-powered offenses, brings a 103-61 career coaching record to the Rebels. He also looks to inject energy into the Las Vegas scene and the Nevada-Las Vegas Name, Image, and Likeness program.
This hire aligns with UNLV’s aspirations to compete in the evolving Mountain West and potentially contend for a College Football Playoff spot. Mullen’s recruiting expertise and offensive acumen are expected to bolster the program's competitiveness, with the transfer portal playing a key role in his first season.
