Very fair to wonder WTF is going on with cities.

Dangerous to read too much of anything, but I wonder if they've hit a snag in Vegas given that they haven't filled out the coaching staff.

They'd be very wise to reconsider given how poor of a record Vegas has had with alt leagues.

It does seem strange and makes for some awkward phrasing when announcing coaches, directors of personnel, and coordinators without being able to attach them to at least a city.

That said, summer was the general time period I believe The Rock last mentioned cities and teams being announced, and we’re still in that period. Mike Mitchell and Aaron Wilson have been consistent in reporting the cities; June Jones and Dave Boller have both put their destinations in their Twitter bios; and the latest “leak” from XFL Shop has all the cities that have been reported on t-shirts at the site.

Watch them be announced the week of the USFL Championship game :lol: :lol:

Strong group of coordinators with most having a long resume, the exception being Becht’s as GDAWG has already pointed out. Maybe that group will bring some new ideas in and it will work for them. I like all the experience with the other teams though.

It’s rumored Woodson is going to Vegas so I would agree that’s where perhaps the issue lies, if there is one. A little hard to confirm coaches if you can’t tell them where they are going yet.

I think Ward will do fine because Elizondo has years of experience including recently as Head Coach in Edmonton. Ward can rely on Elizondo as a sounding board on game days in regards to clock management and game time decisions. I fear Becht is going to be like the Kirby Wilson of the XFL, not having any clue as to what is going on.

Just a totally new ballgame being able to play right off The Strip and indoors, imo.

Interesting that Woodson has had no assistants named.

I didn't expect Las Vegas to return to alt football after they finally sit at the big kids table the last two seasons.
