Unlv & Air Force in contact w/AAC

Article covers Utah State but brings out much more than just them. Some interesting things mentioned in this article like UNLV and AF staying in the MWC with unequal revenue sharing as an enticement. Also, mentions some possible targets of acquisition for the MWC.


I swear to God if Utah State got in over us.

Some rumbling on twitterverse (no actual reports) Memphis negotiations may have hit snag.

Lady Rebels Infinity basketball thread

How do you think we will do without Young? Roland will be coming into the lineup I presume.
I, think Meadow Roland has big shoes to fill. It, will not be easy to fill the role of, 1 of the 25 greatest women players in MW history.
Also, I hope Meadow's shoulder, is completely healed and doesn't effect her motion, in anyway. We, need her in an important role.
In, 5 year's of Lindy's coaching. This, non-conference schedule is the best at UNLV.
Games, against Arizona, Oklahoma, Baylor, UCF, DePaul and Northwestern. Are, exciting and competition will be tough for our PG Kiara Jackson.

What, are your thoughts on the Lady Rebel season?

Grass ain’t always greener!

Maiava is a sophomore backing up a senior. He is learning from the best QB developer in college football. He is one play away from being "the guy" there. He is also taking a big bag of cash.

Way too soon to say he isn't a pro. There have been back ups under Riley that had 1 or 2 years starting in college that were drafted and now starting in the NFL. Not saying he will get there or that he won't get recruited over, but it seems like a good decision to me.

Also look at what we did after Maiava left. Got 3 guys (Ochoa included) that were the exact opposite of him. Safe to say that Marion just didn't like that skill set as much. I'm not saying that the decision was mutual, and obviously we haven't passed the ball that great this season, but I think Marion is happy changing the offense overall with the new personnel.

As for Jerrae? Yeah, that kinda sucks. He was a bright spot for us when healthy, but he has been injured. We overhauled or defensive backfield and I don't know how much he would start this season if he stayed? Do you think he did a better job that Baldwin is now at that same nickel/LB hybrid position? Eh, I don't know. Baldwin seems a bit beefier and can stop the run better.
USC has 5* QB Julian Lewis who is the #2 rated player in ESPN’s Top 300 coming in next year. I’d say unless he transfers again, Maiava is never going to be the starter at USC and definitely not going pro.

Baldwin moving to nickel and the addition of grimes, catalon, ware, Chavis, etc has been a huge upgrade so far. Love having Baldwin down low playing that nickel spot.

Did he get that though? What about Jerrae?

I mean, I get what you’re saying. Call me too punk rock…I still feel you don’t sellout.

I saw Green Day in an Oakland garage around 1987 or ‘88. The co-owner of Lookout Records (Green Day’s future label at that point ) took us there…a guy that hated sellouts (his partner on the other hand was a weasel)…this guy said these guys were just looking to cash in. He was right, and they did just that…AND look at who Green DAY is now. Rich delusional asshole sellouts.

It’s like being a RAT Joe, and I know you hate a rat….i also know, deep down, you get what I’m saying.

I know this isn’t really the point of this post, but I’ve almost always been on the opposite end of this. This was my thought process when I was a punker kid in high school. Then I joined a band and realized that it’s not easy and rarely glamorous and you play your music day in and day out. Bands should do whatever they want to do. They have to live with it every day. If they hate their own music because they are selling out, they have the money but not the enjoyment. Or maybe they actually enjoy playing music deemed as “selling out”.
