and a NBA team here in less than 5 ,but yet these Power 5 conferences have not included us yet??? Make it make sense. If you want to draw interest in your team and conference then UNLV should be at the TOP of everyones list and i mean EVERYBODY! The excitement VEGAS brings to any sporting event is amplified multiple times vs anywhere else in the country and its not even close. The shortsightedness is astonishing. The road trips for fans of opposing teams would be at the bare mininum 100x plus at the minimum for any game they play here. I dont want to here rhetoric about us not winning . Plenty of bottom dwellers in Power 5 conferences that have nothing to offer and have done nothing. Academics ?? We are improving rapidly and what % of kids on scholarships make a living off the degrees IF they get one ? Almost none. They have ZERO interest in those kids its a farce. We qualify. Other than the winning part and with inclusion that would of should solve that easily.
