In the past couple of days, it’s become patently obvious that UNLV’s choice for their new head coach would come down to either Dennis Franchione or Bobby Hauck.
Those reports were indeed correct, and the winner is... Montana head coach Bobby Hauck.
(Or, as one emailer put it, “Billy Bobby Huock Hock Hauck, Has been hired by UNLV.” For some reason, I think that was a shot at me and how I butchered the name in previous posts. Could be a coincidence, though.)
UNLV is expected to make an official announcement on Wednesday, the Associated Press is reporting.
The 45-year-old Hauck had been the coach at Montana since December of 2002, and will replace Mike Sanford as the Rebels’ coach. Sanford, incidentally, was named as Louisville’s new offensive coordinator earlier today.
