Conference Play begins

So UNLV finishes 6-5 in non-conference play, it looks like UNLV is getting healthy, starting out with 3 softies, i mean Toilet Paper Soft with Fresno this weekend.

If KK cant have this team 9-5 and 3-0 in conference, just fire him right now, this is year 4, the Mack is Funeral Home, avg around 4-4.5k a game depending on tickets sold, you guys in Vegas will most likely tell me they havent had a crowd over 2.5 for one game outside of Memphis.

As i expect, UNLV has no offensive game inside, Cherry getting around what 6 shots a game, Hill is what he is, and that's it, Whaley played 15 minutes the other nigh.

The kid who is gaining more experience is Pape N'Diaye, i believe he had 8 points in 9 minutes, he's athletic and very raw, but he better option than Cottrell.

Looks like the rotation will be:
Cherry
Hill
Thomas
Rishwain
Henley

Bedford
Hicks
Cottrell
N'Diaye

I was just thinking the last time i was excited was when Rice was here in 2015, outside of Thomas, who else would he have recruited on this roster?

This landing seems off to me. I have no proof, but something tells me his agent took him for a ride and promised him P4 opportunity. My guess is that those offers fell through, and by the time he recognized he was being taken for a ride, Unlv recruited over him.

Mullen said players were welcome to look. I imagine that also means do so at your own risk. Mullen doesn’t have to guarantee that he’ll save your seat on the bus.

Wish Greg the best of luck, but with him being a local and future star here, this hurts a bit.

That's an interesting one..

Between Jett staying and incoming Utah guy was he worried about touches here?

Did he want to go somewhere that he would likely be 'the guy'

I really thought he'd end up at a Big12 school or maybe follow Odom.

Got a Quarterback

And who is to say he doesn’t pick up another guy that can play the spot. We all thought Sluka when we got him and then we got Hajj. Regardless of how they performed this year, they were neck and neck …. Not a tremendous talent gap, if any, between the two.
That's not entirely accurate... Sluka beat Hajj out after basically 3 weeks in camp. Hajj was here all Spring and summer. The fact that Sluka struggled with his passing in 2 road games vs Big 12 defenses is an aberration and because he walked away we will always have a jaded view and never got to see him get into real rhythm. There was certainly a talent gap and we got the most out of Hajj we could've expected but his struggles vs Boise and Cal show why he got beat by a guy with 3 weeks of practice... again, our judgement on the matter is skewed because Sluka quit.

Colandrea Highlights....

I think this deserves its own thread. I encourage you guys to watch Anthony's highlights. Remember, these are true freshman and sophomore highlights versus teams that normally had more talented than UVA.

I love the quick release and gunslinger attitude. He is also sneaky quick and athletic. Can definitely keep teams honest with his legs but more on rollout and keeps and squeaking through the LOS for 20 yards when coverage is good.

I would say that I would caution using him on designed QB runs inside the box versus LBs and DL. Would worry him holding up


Reminds me of Brock Purdy little bit and I bet a tape of his interceptions might show some of those same mistakes trying to make a play rather than just blowing the reads altogether. I could be wrong, though, that's for sure

Got him for both his Junior and Senior years too after having almost 5000 yards passing in the ACC as a young player.

Anyway, I like the signing in an Omar Clayton kinda way if you want a Rebel comp lol
