Rebel Nation: UNLV preps for opener at USC

Known for his offensive mind, UNLV football coach Dan Mullen also has a clear view of how he wants his team’s defense to perform.

UNLV offensive line coach Mike Sollenne was part of the coaching staff that led Ohio State to the CFP title in January while he was also on the Rebels’ staff.

The UNLV football team held the first of three spring scrimmages Saturday, and coach Dan Mullen said he wants the pace of play to improve.

Picked to replace Zach Arnett, who resigned Monday as UNLV’s defensive coordinator, Paul Guenther has already begun adding his own wrinkles to things.

Power Four transfers Alex Orji and Anthony Colandrea are focused on learning new UNLV football coach Dan Mullen’s offense more than anything right now.
