UNLV coach Tony Sanchez is starting to notice a pattern with his new assistant coach.
Sanchez reunited with Sean Manuel last month when he was named the director of football strength and conditioning for the Rebels.
Manuel had the same role at Bishop Gorman High School the past seven years, five of those with Sanchez as the head coach of the Gaels.
“I told (Manuel) why are you always following me when we’re about to start winning,” Sanchez said jokingly. “I was at Gorman one year before he joined and then we took off. He’s always around at the right time.
