The longest day-after

After watching a significant amount of the Utah State/ New Mexico game, two teams that are truly bereft of talent, I watched 2 erratic left handed quarterbacks in your game. Somebody had to win, and with 5 minutes left in the game, San Diego, after being stuffed the entire game. suddenly finds its running game. You have no excuses other than you are the web-Ls. Haener is up next, and its more than likely you will experience another long day. You have alot more talent than either Hawaii or Nevada, but winning at Hawaii is never easy and Nevada, despite one of it's worst teams ever, will show up. Losing to Nevada with a bowl berth in the balance would be devastating. I suggest you lose to Hawaii and diminish the impact of the Nevada game. Besides, a 4-8 record is pretty good for you guys.

Good Old Days

The games tipped off at 8:05 which gave plenty of time for day shift dealers to get to the game either on time or with 15 to go in the first half. I was working at Caesar's at the time and the buzz was palpable from 82-92. Everybody wanted to go see the Greatest Show in Town.
From the time we got to work we would be making deals and finageling for the EO (early out) so we could get out by 7:40 to get to the T & M before tip off. The light show was new to college and pro hoops at that time and everybody stood and did the Shark Arms to the theme of Jaws. Nothing like it, Rebel hoops was electric.
i still go, still love my Rebs no matter how much they break my heart and always will. Can't wait for Monday, Go Rebels, hoping for one more magical season.

Juco commit

I didn't see this mentioned elsewhere on here, so...

Top 50 JUCO Rob Whaley chooses #UNLVmbb over Wichita State & Boise State. Their 1st pledge for 2023, Whaley is a brute force, multidimensional type. At 6'5, he has elite post moves, can face up, has terrific vision, is a savage rebounder, & likes to finish well above the rim.

Bryce Reppin’ Hustlin’ Rebs

Does any other professional athlete rep UNLV as much as Bryce Harper? I don’t think our Alumni represent as hard as he does. I guess that speaks volumes of our athletic department and culture. He’s just a fan. Didn’t have to deal with the BS behind the scenes? Or maybe he’s just one of them hardcore East Las boys ✊🏻

Pretty tight lipped

So not a lot of in depth detail from anywhere - and remember, this is SUU so there are other angles with info. Still tight, trying to stitch info together. But it was a complete blowout from what I understand. SUU couldn’t match up anywhere, UNLV did what they wanted.

UNLV is extremely active defensively. Think SDSU. Not as skilled or athletic, probably quicker, but it’s all in on the defensive end. They create a lot of mayhem and turnovers and easy buckets against lesser competition. And that will show in OOC because everyone is lesser competition.

Offensively, a definite weak spot, work in progress. Shooting isn’t good, Webster is probably best from outside. K Gilbert is the best offensively but all damage is from inside the line. But he’s the alpha on the team and will have the ball in his hands a lot.

it’s a team of several “decent” players, Gilbert being the best by quite a bit and he has control of the team. Heard some good things about Muoka overall. Hands, touch, defensively. No Cottrell.

It’ll be rebound by committee, all hands on deck.

Will have trouble with scoring when we get stuck in the half court. Might not look that way early given the competition but it’s considered a weakness. But the defensive freneticism is a strength but competition must be considered.

I heard probably looking at best case, 4th place MWC, worst case, 7th.

OT: Invasion of North Dakota hocket fans tonight

U of North Dakota plays Ariz St in vegas tonight in hockey. Thousands from North Dakota are in vegas for the game. Vegas connection is Ralph Engelstad who owned Imperial Plaza in vegas before his death built a $100 arena for U of North Dakota hockey. And as a big ____ you to ncaa he put a indian headress on every aisle and at other places around the arena so when ncaa made them retire the fighting sioux nickname, they could not totally make it go away.

Last 4 have gotten better

Haner throws for 400+ to lead Fresno St back from 28-10 deficit

SD St scores 28

Nevada loses to SanJose by 7 where we got destroyed by San Jose

Hawaii loses by 7 to Wyoming. We would be underdogs by more than 7 to Wyoming.

Early in the year Nevada and Hawaii were gimmes, not so much now.

Will be a real test for rebels to see if they have gotten better or worse as season went on.
