247 sports Transfer Ranking

New Mex loses to Air Force by 12. AF scores 89. They probably have not done that in years.

No team in the conference is truly horrid except Wyoming. And they would not be so bad without all the injuries and player losses.

Gonna give this a shot from mobile. Here are the guys announced as signed by UNLVFB on Twitter, in order of announced from first to most recent.

RB Jai'den "Jet" Thomas

Stayed up to whatever time it ended, just horrible basketball, UNLV won so freaking what, beating Wyoming team that's in total breakdown mode.

Harkless was great last night, the rest of the team, just horrible. Nothing else to say about the game, not sure Wyoming wins another game this year, so it doesn't matter.

Moving forward, I really think San Jose sweeps us, AF beats us, I am not sure they can get another win, last night and Fresno games just proves how horrible this team and how un-talented this team really is.

I believe KK has 3 kids committed next year, and with returning players, Rodriquez-Gilbert-Nowell-Hall combination, your looking bottom feeder 9-11th place finish next year.

I feel like it's worse now then the Marvelous One last year, it's bleak, how many games has the Mack actually had 5K in the arena seats? Next year they might not be able to fill the cox arena.

I know KK coming back, to me if what if you go to Rice at BSU, don't like him, but he would compete and win MWC at UNLV, you look what he does at freaking Boise, he can coach to the talent he recruits, KK shown he can't recruit to his vision, offense is horrid, defensively is just garbage.

I see Aztecs winning by 20-35 on Saturday, it's going to be ugly, if Harkless struggles in 1st half, might not score 20 at halftime.

According to a tweet by Brett McMurphy a few minutes ago.

How far of a lead do you think Brumfield has in the qb race? It seems like he and the commits coming in are treating him as QB1?

I feel bad for him. Loads of talent and it will take a near miracle to display it at the NCAA's.

We coulda been a contender. So many moving parts all moving in direct opposition to UNLV.

JTT is an absolute monster at Cal. Definitely my favorite player that year.

What in the world happened that Blake had to leave and help Pepperdine take down Gonzaga the other day. Best Freshman we had brought in for awhile.

Where was the NIL $$$ that might have been enough to keep Hamilton & Williams here another year?

How do you lose all of your assistant coaches/recruiters to Power 5 conferences in 1 year not to mention Beard & Otz.

Absolutely stunning when you look back and see how everything seems to work against us & this is just a partial list from the last several years.

Hey I know there are a couple of Rebel baseball fans on here.

I am shamelessly plugging a podcast my nephew is part of dedicated to Rebel baseball. He's a freshman at UNLV..Majoring in sports journalism.

It's called Hustlin' Rebels. I'll provide a link in the future.

Thanks in advance to anybody that gives it a listen.

Its been quiet over here so lets spice it up! Choose one person on each side of the ball. It can be hs, transfers, or juco.

I think its an easy pick to choose Jaxen Turner or Zavier Carter on defense so I'll roll with Lucas Conti. For offense, I'll roll with Vincent Davis.

Lady rebels. Really nice crowd.

Meanwhile…

“Why release him?” is my question.

We all know this supposed great defense we have is bunk because we get toasted on open 3's and offensive rebounds. But would be nice to see a stat of defense points per possession allowed to quantify what we see. Can anyone find this?

Cowboys - 73
Rebs - 67

The losses continue

He is not the guy for this job. It's clear. Call it overreacting, or jumping to conclusions but we are going absolutely no where with him as the coach. I know many will say we cant just keep swapping coaches every few years but the writing is on the wall and we would just be delaying the inevitable. He cant recruit or coach. Play calling is an absolute joke. Zero excuse for the way this roster was put together. He simply isnt the man for the job. With the transfer rules now, you dont get 3 or 4 years if your first two years are absolutely awful. Look at what Otz is doing at Iowa St. Last night was the final straw. Im done with this guy.

We were given an absolute lifeline with the Otz situation and flushed it down the drain.

Easier than it used to be.

When is the last time we had an academic ineligibility? Grade transfer hold ups and such … it used to be pretty common. I know I used to hold my breath at end of first semester, wondering if somebody didn’t make the grade and would have to sit out the rest of the year.

I know UNLV has tutors/advisors for the athletes. I’m guessing they aren’t as busy as they used to be.

In this age of information … you have to try to fail to actually fail.

It goes for HS, as well. “Cheating”, in some form, is rampant and expected.

Looked up stats of b ham and D Williams in g league. They both have started most games each scoring around 15 per game. B ham shooting in upper 40% and D Williams looks like he got traded or something as he has been with 2 teams. With one team he was shooting 56%.

B Ham around 4.5 rebounds per game and D Will 3.3 rebounds per game.

Hope they both can make an NBA team next year. Do not know if we will have any NBA hopefuls this year.

Just laid down and watched the game in peace for a change. Quiet house, relaxing.

Shook my head most of the game. After we lost, I wasn’t pissed … I really don’t get pissed after losses or super amped after wins. But I didn’t feel like looking at anything UNLV related so I temporarily shut down outside communications aside from about a dozen fans texting me how badly we suck. It’s whatever. I was going to see one of two things. People complaining we suck, which is depressing, or people covering up the fact we suck by placing roses on top vomit and calling it art. Both suck. So I just refrained.

I’ll see it all today as I surf around. But it’s incredibly disappointing that we are destined for a cellar spot with so many games remaining. This isn’t the B10 or ACC. It’s the fkn mountain west. And you can place the same “the league is pretty damn good”’s on it as you want, it ain’t all that. It’s akin to thinking we did a great job OOC. This league has one “good” team and they’re far from great and a couple of mediocre teams. And besides, it’s not those “top” teams that are doing so much damage to us.

The Rebs have lost, what? 2 games vs the top 3 in conference? But lost four games vs the bottom 4 in conference.

I think we have 5 home losses, as well? I realize fans aren’t showing up in numbers or excitement … but you cannot roll out such home futility in front of fans and expect them to show up and be energetic. And no, it’s not just this season, it’s been a string of seasons where UNLV struggles at home. The MWCT in the Mack - a PERFECT venue for the tournament because it’s Vegas (accommodations/excitement), it’s cheap travel, and it’s not a completely foreign court … and it yields no home court advantage.

It’s just seriously disappointing.

What does it look like? Is this Air Force offence 2.0? Is this runs, runs, runs with occasional pass? Or is this ding and dive like the Patriots offence with Edelman and the midget offence. Odom got some tall receivers on this team. Interesting to see what this offence will transpires into?

The Conference has separated into a top five and bottom six for the NET rankings.

TOP 5: Boise, SDSU, New Mexico, Reno and Utah State. ( Ranked between 20th and 38th)

Bottom 6: Rebels, Colorado State, Wyoming, San Jose, Air Force and Fresno ( Ranked between 69th and 201st)

Based on past years' rankings if the selection was today the top five should be in the NCAA's.

Our problem - even if we win out - is we have 3 quad three losses. Of the 69 teams ahead of us only one team ( St Mary's) has 2 quad three losses. The large majority have none and a few have 1. We virtually eliminated ourselves with the San Jose, Colorado State and Fresno losses.

Was reading his book Darkness to Light and it was interesting, he blamed Tark for snitching about someone else taking his SAT because he didn’t take an official visit to Fresno. First time I heard that as the reason the NCAA got involved.

13-1 with Parquet. Only loss came against Fresno.

Important to show that 1/21 game was an anomaly. We need to beat a bad team convincingly tonight.

Isaiah Hill lit us up for 28 last time. That can’t happen again.
