All coaches give a decent presser. Except of course Kevin who I think didnt say anything about winning.
That said, and Im certainly liking the energy and the things he is saying, I will reserve judgement on the hire until its February and we are playing a meaningful basketball game.

FWIW, it’s not just pressers, it’s postgame commentary as well. I used to tune in to postgame talk and listen to Bayno explain what he saw in the game. Spoon was ok, he sometimes had some folksy cliche but haven’t really paid attention to them. Lon-Rice-Marv were all dry ball/zero personality.

TJO was actually decent in explaining the game and he was not afraid to pull punches, even publicly benched guys. Then there was the previous coach, I couldn’t listen to any of what he was talking about. Someone correctly described his personality as a trout.

Just couldn’t follow it and I can only imagine how it was in practices.

You didn’t break any rule, new posters are rate limited on their posts.

Cuts out the riff raff and spam bots. Eventually after you “prove” yourself, you can post all you want.

Our overlord, Spilotro, can probably explain better than I but that’s my understanding.

Interesting. I didn't know there were rules on # of posts. Is that just for starting new threads or replying also?

Saw the post in Confidential, but am not a member so I cant comment on it there.

If Pastner wants to get Las Vegas buzzing again, this is the player that you start with. I am not saying that he is the best or that his past actions shouldnt be overlooked, but when Pop would not be a bad player to get. His asking price should not be that high since he is coming off injury and he is not an All American.

Pastner brings a DIY NIL here, meaning he can creatively find ways to raise money. If anyone else has any specific names from the portal or just names in general. Let me know. My buddy is very well connected and we will try to find out more information on said players.

EDIT: To whoever runs this site, why am I not allowed to post or reply anymore? Did I break some rule?

Agreed. He also seems to have the persona that will work better in the Vegas market. Hopefully he can reel in more community support with NIL and filling the T&M

Reminder about UNLV Rebels Giving Day. It looks like you can start donating today from what I see on the website. This link is for the athletics donations but there are also University wide donation opportunities.

I'd be the worst press conference coach ever.

Style of Play - whatever works the best for the players we got.
Goals - score more points than the other team. Win more games than the other teams in MWC.
Recruiting - try to get the best guys we can get.

It's good that we didn't hire Belichick for football then.

WORST. PRESSER. EVER.

Very few people followed UNLV basketball this year with only a few thousand at each game, so I really do not think the average Las Vegas resident was following the team, thus I do not believe most people will miss Dedan Thomas.

It is far past time to start anew with this team.. i was hoping djt was going to be the next mark macon for unlv as was for temple back in the day.. ridiculous expectations and just didnt work out. And just ridiculous that he was talking about trying to get back from injury for the MWC tourney.. next...
