Not shocking at all! Kevin Kruger is a lousy recruiter.Title states it all. Massive loss on the recruiting trail by the staff. Would almost call it a blunder
No words.Not shocking at all! Kevin Kruger is a lousy recruiter.
Who has he gotten other than Dedan Thomas?No words.
Maybe you’re only speaking to high school recruits in which I still agree to disagree but see where you may be coming from. I think the landscape has changed so we will see less high school kids. But I’m also happy with getting Hicks. But he remains a question mark. So I can understand skepticism on the high school kids.Who has he gotten other than Dedan Thomas?
If he can land Pharaoh Compton, then my stance will soften somewhat.
As I see it, staff decided on transfer portal this year and succeeded. Their offers for 2024 are all high value recruits at their positions. KK and staff appear to have pivoted to HS route after this year.Maybe you’re only speaking to high school recruits in which I still agree to disagree but see where you may be coming from.

When it comes to transfers this is my list of quality guys who could have gone to big programs.
Hamm
Donovan
Parquet
Rodriguez
And this year
Hill (b12 starter)
Kalib (b12 starter)
Keylan(6’8 40% 3pt shooter)
These three are huge to me. Two of the three could have literally gone to any national caliber team with the third having good options as well. And then we have Dedan. Especially now I struggle to see how Kevin is an awful recruiter. He’s at least better than average. Kevin was also the recruiter on hill to Oklahoma. I won’t go out on a limb and say he’s an ace, because he’s not. But I have to give him a little credit.
Obviously that’s just my point of view but sheesh, he ain’t awful haha. Average? Maaaaybe.
247 Sports agrees with you and currently ranks UNLV transfer portal class 26th in the country and with only 3 players. With another transfer UNLV will be top 15 easy.Maybe you’re only speaking to high school recruits in which I still agree to disagree but see where you may be coming from.

Any word on the last scholarship?I wouldnt be worried about this loss in terms of a talent aspect. It does suck though because its a kid that the staff thought they had on lock. Again, the staff thought they had him.
This is not sour grapes at all, but I actually prefer 2 guys that play his position over him.
Another thing to note, DJ didnt recruit him personally but DJ is recruiting two others personally. Take that how you want
He, the captain of the ship, has to be recruiting 110% of the time. Blunders my ass.Title states it all. Massive loss on the recruiting trail by the staff. Would almost call it a blunder
Wow, talk about adding insult to injury. Not only did Kruger lose out, it was to the conference leader that we need to beat out. This kid will be the next Billy White (local if goes to SDSU and kills us every time).
Oh man that’s a name that brings back painful memories!!Wow, talk about adding insult to injury. Not only did Kruger lose out, it was to the conference leader that we need to beat out. This kid will be the next Billy White (local if goes to SDSU and kills us every time).
Rebel Robert is the man!@lobbybuu why are you clogging up Twitter with replies to likes of Rebelrobert and unlvgirl or whatever? Just block them and move on.
Lorenzo Wade before that, no?Oh man that’s a name that brings back painful memories!!
I'm not clogging up anything. I haven't replied to unlvrebelgrl at all and I'm allowed to reply to anyone on my account.@lobbybuu why are you clogging up Twitter with replies to likes of Rebelrobert and unlvgirl or whatever? Just block them and move on.
I was kindly asked by some followers to not have negativity on the account and i respected it.You responded to her basically saying she is crazy, then you deleted it, then you made a post about it on here... And today there were like 4-5 posts between you and rebelrobert that kept showing up each time you guys would reply to each other.
All of it pretty immature stuff.
As usual when something doesn’t go right half of the Rebel so called fan base start eating their young. Just blow these guys off. We appreciate your efforts to keep us all informed.I was kindly asked by some followers to not have negativity on the account and i respected it.
if its too immature for you, you can unfollow instead of coming on here to bitch. thats pretty immature too.
You know how it is for these crazy "We're just one freshman and a few bounces away from a Final 4" Rebel fans...As usual when something doesn’t go right half of the Rebel so called fan base start eating their young. Just blow these guys off. We appreciate your efforts to keep us all informed.
Lmao, I’m blocked by Rebelrobert because I made him look silly AF, and have UNLVgirl on mute lmao. Both are unbearable.@lobbybuu why are you clogging up Twitter with replies to likes of Rebelrobert and unlvgirl or whatever? Just block them and move on.
