KTNV Channel 13 covered Monday’s Super Bowl panel discussion event and interviewed Host Committee COO Bill McConnell and UNLV Athletic Director Erick Harper.
From the story:
“The infrastructure that the NFL needs to support, even the football side, the event side, Las Vegas does not have that foundation if not for UNLV,” said Bill McConnell, COO of the Las Vegas Super Bowl LVIII Host Committee.”
“This is an opportunity to brand the university, not only from a sports perspective but also from an enrollment and admissions perspective with the general student population,” said Erick Harper, UNLV Director of Athletics.”
