Wow, sent to me, didn’t expect this

No, no big news. Was sent to me this morning. I remember when it happened, didn’t know the clip existed though.

I think it’s easy to see that I meant what I said at the time. Obviously, that’s not what happened, I lasted another 30+ years without missing a game.

Pretty consistent. I still don’t like our admin.

It should go straight to the clip, if not, it’s around the 320 mark. I guess I’m 22 in the clip. Friggin’ dork.

Grain of salt

I don’t like commenting without actually seeing for myself.

But from people who have seen … I’m being told with regards to basketball …. Some potential, if things break right, we can fight for the top third of conference, but more than likely expect more of the same of what we’ve seen, sort of middling … not very athletic or big, kinda nondescript other than Dedan who has been really good. Just mediocre across the board … behind defensively, won’t look good in that respect but I always expect that early on in the season. It always lags.

Football, I expected Sluka to start breaking away, it’s still early, especially for him … seems neck and neck with Hajj.

Michael Allen

There hasn't been much talk about the NCST transfer running back Michael Allen. Coming out of high school Allen was 4 star and ranked the 20th running back in the country. He also ran track and posted a laser timed 4.48 40 in high school. He is strong at 5'11" and 215lbs and there was no reported injuries at NCST. What really piqued my interest was the fact that many of the NCST fans felt Allen was the best rb on the roster and should have have started as the featured back. Instead, the coach went with rotating the running backs and started a senior. Also, Allen has good hands out of the back field. I am really intrigued with Allen and what he potentially adds to the offense. He is explosive. Some film from his sophomore year:

This can’t hurt recruiting!

“Do you want NFL eyes on you during the preseason? Come be a Rebel!”

** Maybe the Raiders can’t scout these practices?? I did hear that NFL teams can have unlimited visits with players from local Universities so SF would be able to get Cal and Stanford players to visit as often as they want. Likewise with LVR and UNLV players **

Pacific December 14

I see we have scheduled Pacific to be played down in Henderson on December 14. Another game that will draw 3-4-5 thousand. To top it off, last year Pacific was # 358 out of 362 TOTAL teams. We could not stoop any lower. We should NEVER play somebody that is that bad. Aim higher. Playing games like that only hurt your computer rankings and your team’s mental toughness. And Las Vegas games away from the T & M are always a big financial flop. Bad attendance is almost guaranteed. Why do this ??? They never learn. Just play two true road games during rodeo and always play at the house that Jerry built when in Vegas…. Geez

MW reaches "deal" with TNT, will air games on their networks this season.


So I have no idea if this will do anything to the existing TV contract. Technically turner is a part of CBS, or more accurately the other way around. The article has no mention of any changes in terms of compensation with this deal.

Also worth noting, there will be zero UNLV games this season with these networks.

I would imagine that could/should increase payouts. Would we offer these games up for free? Or is it just an extension of the CBS contract? Unknown.

If you can't join 'em, beat 'em!

Just saw that BSU extended AD Jeremiah Dickey, when everyone was certain he was just a home sale away from moving to Houston to run the Cougars program. That dude has been an idea hatching, money raising fool since he hit town, and the league needs more like him. Got me to thinking, nobody's been beating down the doors of any of the MW houses, begging them to join them, cry as we might for a new, fancy home. Ain't happenin'. It's time to just cinch 'em up, ladies, and go to work. BSU secured Dickey, Harp looks like he has all the makings of a strong AD and he needs paid when his time comes, and there are others around the league. This league needs strength and energy running the athletics departments, and then retention. Instead of constantly peeking over the fence (sorry, PAC ain't there anymore) we need to build what we've got. When the product is entertaining and successful, the money will come.

Two Pre-Season All-Americans and more....

White, De Jesus Earn Preseason All-America To Lead 14 Rebels Honored By Phil Steele

Story Links​

LAS VEGAS (UNLVRebels.com) – UNLV football has a pair of preseason All-Americans heading into the 2024 campaign as wide receiver Ricky White III (Second Team) and return man Jacob De Jesus (Third Team) were named by Phil Steele College Football Preview magazine Tuesday.

The Rebels also had 14 players on Phil Steele's Preseason All-Mountain West/Pac-2 Teams, including a league-leading seven First Team selections.

White is college football's leading returning receiver after finishing with a school-record 1,483 yards last fall. He tied the UNLV mark for receptions in season with 88 and became the first Rebel ever to post five consecutive games with at least 100 receiving yards. In 2023, White was named First Team All-America by the Action Network, Second Team by the College Football Network and Third Team by Associated Press, becoming just the second UNLV WR to appear on an AP team in history and first since 1981.

De Jesus, who also plays receiver, led the nation in total return yards with 1,079. The only player to rank in the top 15 nationally in both kick returns and punt returns, his 96-yard kickoff return in the season opener was the fourth-longest in UNLV history while his 59-yard punt return at New Mexico was the longest by a Rebel since 2003. One of three finalists for the 2023 Jet Award, given to the country's best returner, De Jesus last year earned Second Team All-America from USA TODAY and Action Network along with Third Team from Phil Steele.

De Jesus was named Preseason All-MW/Pac-2 at both kickoff return and punt return and joining him and White on the First Team was offensive linemen Tiger Shanks and Jalen St. John, linebacker Jackson Woodard and cornerback Cameron Oliver.

Defensive lineman Jalen Dixon and punter Marshall Nichols were on Phil Steele's Second Team while running back Jai'Den "Jet" Thomas, tight end Kaleo Ballungay, center Jack Hasz and safety Jalen Catalon (a transfer from Texas) were Third Team picks. Linebacker Marsel McDuffie rounded out the Rebel contingent on the Fourth Team.
