I wish him well!

Kevin the PG will be remembered fondly and I’m sure he is a good man and father but I was extremely glad a coaching move was finally made to remove him.

It was a year overdue in my opinion!

I’m sorry, I can’t get onboard with people that poo poo a talent like Stephens. I’ve been begging CKK to get somebody like Keba (BYU/UTAH), and Stephen’s mimics his game, he can be a rebound machine and protect the rim.

We cannot have soft 5’s anymore if we want to win, I’m happy to see Pastner address this critical need and have been impressed that he’s prioritizing athleticism (he’s retaining the most athletic guys on the roster). CJP is working overtime to get the right pieces with the right staff behind him.

I’m hoping we can get a couple dogs, get some lunch pail/glue guys because those players will push it in practices, and CJP is going to run a high energy practice.

I agree, Bear Cherry transferring to Sac St. tells me that CJP may have had a talk with him about his future at UNLV. From what I remember of Pastner’s Memphis and GT teams, was that they were all long and athletic and could run the floor.

Yes they had parties in the Student Union when I was in the dorms around 1991. I remember going to one and they were playing that fckn song "You Spin Me Right Round Baby Right Round" all night. Our RA Angela from Iowa got all jacked up and puked all over the place. Good times.

Oh God I remember that song hated it. Same band also had Brand New Lover as a hit. Played all the time at the Sports Pub. Not as often as their theme song "How Soon is Now" but in the rotation.

I remember things like that. Sometimes they’d have minor bands or minor comedians perform. I remember some really weak comedian named Barry Sobel perform a couple of times.

I remember him and you know who else performed there Richard Jenni. He was actually funny and pretty big for a while he was in the movie The Mask with Jim Carrey.

Sports Pub the bar upstairs with warm beer.

Guy we went to school with named Scott I think, from Michigan his first cousin is Anthony Kiedis. He used to talk about him before I knew really even who he was.

Do you remember back then when they had “parties” at the student union? More like informal gatherings but they had beer, not sure if it was allowed or not allowed and they just didn’t enforce it, but I used to see hoops players there all the time. Booby James was a regular. Ed Catchings too and he had already graduated.

I had a class with Larry his last semester, there were only about 12 of us in the class. Pretty sure he was there more than me even. One day I’m hanging out in the Union deciding on whether or not I was going to skip class that day. He sees me and yells “Rebswin come on let’s go to class”

I drove by, Maryland Pkwy and saw they completely tore down that shopping plaza that had the Kinko's there.
The place looks run-down now, with a lot of homeless people behind the back. Sad.

I would be over the moon if he could consistently put up double doubles. Not saying he couldn’t develop into that. But the score of that game against CMU was 41-94.
Remember when Karl Jones went ham on Bethesda? (Had to look that game up, I didn’t actually remember the team off the top of my head). Plus, 30 minutes of PT is a lot to ask of a raw 7 footer.

I’m in a spicy mood right now and I’m only challenging for the hell of it. I’m happy we got him but I just don’t see him putting up consistent points. I’ll jump on board if we are hyping him up for his rebounding and block potential.

I actually have footage of Karl Jones. Couldn’t be bothered to find it at this time of the hour..

That’s great that you have faith. But understand a lot of fans need to see it. I will support Pastner but he does not excite me in any way. I hope he’s learned from his past and time away but before I get excited with him he needs to win games.

yea i give the hire a B . It would of been a C plus if he was not so likeable and energetic . I believe with all my scarlet heart that if we can get into the B12 or better that we would be a TOP 15 in BB and FB. We have more of a chance than ANYBODY to increase our fanbase 100x. EASILY. It Vegas and Vegas sells itself. Plus with all the $ in Vegas it would be not far fetched that we would take a HUGE leap with a P4 invite. Vegas ONLY likes winners. Watch what happens if the Vegas Knights if they take a nose dive.

Opposing fan base is what drives the Raiders. I was told 17,000 Iowa State fans came here last time. I know we might not have everything lined up perfectly to get inclusion to the P4. I think we are close ,but it would be a great business decision to allow us in early. We would lead any conference by atleast 8-10x more opposing fans coming to Vegas than any other School. It would reenergize the conference and bring back excitement.

I don't see the Pac being serious about NM State but, who knows. Rumors start flying and minds start going in all different directions.

If TX St was offered and turned down 1/2 media share as some have said that might be the best indication that their media contract is worse than what I was thinking it would be. They may be struggling to get 8 million. Biggest loser BSU. Biggest winner Zags.

I just do not see this huge value that they would have had even a year ago. The PAC2 consist of the Washington State and Oregon State teams that are powerhouse in their own minds!

Other recent negatives are the drop off in football and basketball for SDSU and the drop off in basketball for Gonzaga. !

None of them are worth the prices they are getting paid. When a college student can make enough money to retire before he is out of school, he is way over paid, but currently there are enough deep pocketed alumni and no rules, so people are getting filthy rich while students who pay there own way through school are getting stuck with part of the cost of making them rich! I hope the court system gets involved quickly!

I just do not see this huge value that they would have had even a year ago. The PAC2 consist of the Washington State and Oregon State teams that are powerhouse in their own minds! In football Wash St: 2023 5-7 2024 8-5 (lost 4 of last 5) Oregon State 2023 8-5 2024 5-7 attendance for Washington State dropped from 28K to 22K. attendance for Oregon State dropped from 37K to 35.8K (including home game verse Oregon). My expectation is that these two program will continue to drop off, and I wouldn't be surprised if Washington state drops under 20K attendance next year. With or without a new media contract, they do not have the money needed to cover their debts. I just don't see a value as high as they are thinking, and the longer they wait, the more likely the media will force a bad deal on them.

Other recent negatives are the drop off in football and basketball for SDSU and the drop off in basketball for Gonzaga. Any way you look at it they currently have 7 football teams with 8 schools splitting the cash, and whomever they add will take that to 9 schools splitting the cash! I wouldn't be at all surprise if they end up around the $6-7 million range!
