Assuming he had lots of internal support when the program had been to 3 NCAA tourneys in 4 years under Devries 6 straight 20+ win years, most of which were 25+ wins.

It is pretty wild though that they legit only had 2 returning players, 1 of which was a significant contributor.

I think your point is something echoing what many on this board have been saying for 4 or 5 years, maybe more.

First year d1 considers competition, "level" of recruiting, and facilities, generally. But it also means he didn't have to learn how to do his job. He applied what he already knew at a place with more resources than his previous stop.

Why? UNLV can’t even get to the semis in the conference tournament. Routinely eke out wins vs the Air Forces and then get smoked by Utah State or choke vs Wyoming. Yet we’re thumbing our noses at final four runs and ACC championships.

Wild. Considering this program is a dumpster fire.

I'd love for us to have a fluke run one of these days, bit I'm not hiring a HC hoping that they fluke into the post season...
