Somebody at UNLV’s making some smart moves

I'm not close enough to the inner working of UNLV to know whether its the new president, the new athletic director, a combination of the two or something else. But somebody over there is reaching the right conclusions and making some good moves, the latest of which is the hiring of College of Southern Nevada baseball coach Tim Chambers as the new UNLV baseball coach.

The Ron Kantowski column in today's Review-Journal delves into it. I recommend it for your morning reading this fine Saturday. As Ron says:

"Speak confidently, carry a big shovel, recruit local kids, raise money, hit the cutoff man, win baseball games, build a program. This could really be the start of something."

UNLV should have one of the better baseball teams in the country, year-in and year-out. I think this could be the start of something big.
