UNLV is presumably eager to build on its best football season in history—but in true Las Vegas fashion, the Rebels will need cash to cover their latest gamble. The school can only cover the first two years of the five-year contract it handed to new coach Dan Mullen on Dec.

Dan Mullen is signed to a 5-year deal at UNLV, but the program's AD says there are only funds for the first 2 seasons.

UNLV is sitting in a giant financial hole and just inked Mullen to a $17.5 million contract they're not sure how they're going to pay for.
