Santa Clara, Calif. • The Pac-12 football championship game Friday night matched two opposing assistant coaches who have attracted interest from UNLV, one of four Mountain West schools with a head coaching vacancy.
Utah defensive coordinator Morgan Scalley and Oregon offensive coordinator Marcus Arroyo “could have mutual interest” in the UNLV job, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported.
Scalley, 40, is among five finalists for the Broyles Award that will be presented next week to the country's top assistant coach. His defense was ranked No. 1 against the run and No. 3 overall, going into the conference title game.
