UNLV met again with Cincinnati basketball coach Mick Cronin on Thursday morning, but he returned home without agreeing to take over the Rebels.
Athletic director Tina Kunzer-Murphy said in a text message that UNLV officials and Cronin “had another great discussion.” She added in another message the two parties were “still working, (Cronin) and his agent are reviewing…this is a process.”
UNLV president Len Jessup sounded optimistic in an interview that followed the presentation to the Southern Nevada Tourism Infrastructure Committee of plans to develop a $1.3 billion domed stadium.
“The process is going well,” Jessup said of talks with Cronin.
