Parents would never let their sons go there unless they love to gamble. I say this, because they are near the bottom in recruiting.

I'd say the parents of the majority of football players at UNLV are just happy their sons got a FBS offer. It probably is the hardest place to maintain the athlete's focus.

My guess is that you were born in the 90's or you are in denial.

Yeah, but as a coach, you would have to do a shitty job to get fired. Easy money and little pressure.

No way, private schools like Rice and Duke are probable 1000x tougher.

True, but that is the first thing you think about when you think Las Vegas. Lousiana is not.

My vote goes to Hawaii. Everyone wants to go there for a week, but not for four years. Also, the travel expenses tie the coach's hands.

Hawaii gets Samoa. Samoans are 40 TIMES more likely than an American to be in the NFL.

Lots of Asian Street Meat to lure the recruits with.

Umm, no. Quality of education is pretty important to a lot of recruits. Maybe not the recruits LSU is targeting, but you can get quite a few guys that would like to play college football and get a good education.

I'm not saying that Duke and Rice are the easiest places, or that they're easier than UNLV, but they are marginally tougher than UNLV at best.
