Quarterbacks have plenty to think about, from reading defenses to avoiding blitzing linebackers.
Football coach Bobby Hauck’s message Monday morning in his first team meeting at UNLV was relatively brief — and that was the point.
New UNLV football coach Bobby Hauck didn’t take long to make a positive impression on local high school talent.
I’ve never been much of a conspiracy guy. I believe Oswald acted alone, that battleships don’t suddenly disappear in foggy weather off the coast of Philadelphia, that the quality control people really believed the new Coke tasted better than the old Coke and never planned to reintroduce the latter to sell even more Coke.

UNLV athletic director Jim Livengood apparently took Monday night to sleep on which coach he should hire to lead the university’s football program.
Montana football coach Bobby Hauck came to Las Vegas on Sunday to interview for the UNLV job, fresh off his third Football Championship Subdivision national title appearance in six seasons.
UNLV’s search for a new athletic director dragged out, but the man now running the department apparently is making sure the search for a new football coach is handled quickly.
Experiments can be dangerous. My son was 2 when he tried one at home, only to discover sticking a penny into an electrical outlet wasn’t as enjoyable as watching “Barney.” To this day, nine years later, the kid lives in a perpetual state of bed hair.
