You’re right the first classes for “UNLV” occurred in a high school in 1959.

However, classes (even in 2024) at Washington State are STILL in Pullman, WA.
Yep. God's country. Although we do have 3 branch campuses across the state.

Do you think she should have played nice and rolled over? Also, the 4 that left signed off on the negotiations and agreed to the poaching provision. Gloria’s job was to protect the MWC and its members. Not cater to the PAC 2 or Boise and the 3 that left without a TV deal in place and no clue as to future revenue. Smart move by the PAC 2! Now they will find out what their true value is in the market place…..same as the MWC they just left because they are all G5 schools and they will get paid accordingly.
Just pointing out that the MWC is undoubtedly worse off after she tried to overplay her hand than they were before. Not saying I would have done it differently. We also don't have all the information that she is privy to, but that was what had been reported early on.

They will definitely not match p4 money, but I'd expect them to get double or more MWC money. And they don't have to give reno, wyo, unm, us currently, any of it. Bigger pie and fewer mouths. Easy choice for them to leave once offered.

Edit- she is the commissioner, her role is to look out for her schools. Expect that to have been in good faith, but it obviously didn't go as good is it could have.

Not from me buddy. This isn't my board, and I am respectful of that. If you want to talk shit and call WSU fans dumb, come on over to my board and have at it. Cougs are always happy to banter with folks from UNR Southern. We are in awe of your esteemed history. I mean shit, WSU had only been around for 70 years when Nevada Southern got its start.

Wikipedia: The first college classes, which eventually became the classes of UNLV, were offered as the southern regional extension division of the University of Nevada in 1959 in a classroom at Las Vegas High School.

Respect for Rebel-Net prevents me from going on. And I remain optimistic that we will soon be conference mates. Even if you have to bring your mothership UNR with you.... :) :)

Odom finishes strong and we are looking?

From the perspective of a Utah fan, this year for UNLV is like the year that Urban Meyer led the Utes to defeat BYU to win the conference championship, a BCS bowl, a victory in a BCS bowl, and then left for Florida. He laid the foundation for the defensive coordinator, Kyle Whittingham, to continue with success, make another BCS bowl, defeat Alabama in the BCS bowl, and get invited to a BCS conference. I am not saying that UNLV will make the playoffs this year but a foundation is being laid. UNLV has more upside than Boise State and other posers. I cheering for UNLV to have success this year so that it would have the opportunity to lose to Utah in the quarterfinals of the playoffs and receive a Big 12 invite :) !
That's my point. I know some would like to hire Marion if Odom leaves, but I'd rather go offer a HC that might be on the sidelines looking for their shot and just looking for a big opportunity with a hood foundation.. I sure hope we aren't hiring assistants again as first time HCs, especially those with minimal experience as a coordinator

James Madison - group of 5 competition?

So, would you like my Cougs to beat BSU and Fresno for you? :)
We need to take care of our own business and beat them both ourselves. FSU is looking like they will be pretty good. SJSU looks decent and they have given us a hard time as of late. We don't have many easy games on our schedule and need to worry about our own games.
