    Patrick McCaw post season

    To go from one of the most inept and underachieving programs in the NCAA, straight to one of the best teams in NBA history... few have risen so drastically.

    Yawn --- China BB

    I'm moving to Beijing in 2 weeks! Can't wait to watch some Chinese basketball. Apparently it's already the playoffs there so I might have to wait until the fall :( Hope a former UNLV player catches on with a team so I can watch/follow like I did with O'Dartey Blankson in Korea, and Kas Kambala...

    Game Day:CSU-UNLV

    3-8 now.... We're in dead-last place in possibly the weakest-ever inception of the Mountain West Conference. Honest question: has UNLV basketball ever finished last in their respective conference in the history of the program? To think how far we have fallen in less than 6 years. It's...

    Oregon

    By your very own logic then, it also wasn't a fluke when we significantly regressed as the year went along, tanked in our pathetic conference, lost to far, far less talented opponents. You know, because it happened consistently, not just once in awhile. By your logic, the yearly mass exodus...

    I feel sick to my stomach about getting raped by Duke

    Year 1: 26-9, 9-5 MWC (with stacked roster that Kruger gifted him), upset in 1st round NCAA Year 2: 25-10, 10-6 MWC, upset by lower seed in NCAA 1st round again. Year 3: 20-13, 10-8 MWC, no postseason Year 4: 18-15, 8-10 MWC, no postseason Year 5: 9-7, 0-3 MWC, on pace for another no postseason...

    Sign of apathy...

    Haha.... that is pretty dam thin skinned, man! But since you and I are some of the remaining Last Men Standing on this board and I don't want any beef, i'll try to refrain from it. As i've said multiple times i'm rooting for Marv.. I just find the nickname (which I didn't make up) amusing.

    Sign of apathy...

    Good posts, well-presented. And I tend to agree, somewhat, which is part of the reason why i'm still on this message board despite the obvious lack of enthusiasm shared by too many others. One of the reasons I have some level of hope in Menzies is, like you mentioned, despite his lack of NCAA...

    Sign of apathy...

    With all due respect Joe, I gotta disagree with a lot of this... Rice had nothing to do with the mass exodus, number of transfers, etc... The term 'mass exodus' became one of the main points of Rice's tenure. Every year we witnessed a mass exodus of players; particularly embarrassing was the...

    Sign of apathy...

    It is sad; in 20-plus years of being a Rebel fan (since 1995), i've never witnessed such apathy, even in the Spoon years. I think a lot of it was that our hopes were so high that Rice would be the one and return us to our rightful place as a legitimate elite program. What happened was the...

    Runnin again

    Despite the fact that we have very limited upside this year, it's a good start for Marvelously Mediocre Marv, all things considered. Excited to see how he handles himself and the team over the next 18 months....

    We just lost at home to South Alabama, fellas...

    nobody was really optimistic going into this year, but I don't think anyone expected us to lose this game. Wow.

    Season Predictions

    You are right... what can I say I forgot about those close losses. That is impressive he came close vs. those powerhouses, and I realize how hard it would be for a WAC team to win a game, especially with the seeds they get. Still, low-conference teams win games all the time in the tourney, and...

    Anyone else having major problems with this site?

    Yeah maybe it has to do with my location; the last 2 years when I was in Russia, and even recently in China, it worked fine though. Oh well, huge bummer. I'll still check when I can :) EDIT: Hmm it magically works again now. First time in months the page actually loads quickly. Thx whoever...

    Anyone else having major problems with this site?

    Around the same time the site RebelNet redesign happened, I started experiencing major problems accessing Rebel Net.... Every time I click any link it loads extremely slowly, like I am using a cable modem from the early 1990's. Honestly, like 7 out of 10 times I click any link, it loads for a...

    Season Predictions

    Despite the huge improvement on Menzies' replies to questions compared to the robotic, bland, packaged Mcanswers Mr. Rice delivered, and his admirable work putting a team together in the hole he found himself in upon taking the job, I still remember that this is the dude nobody at all in the...

    Congratulations to Patrick McCaw and Stephen Zimmerman

    3 NBA players, possibly more, on a 7th-place MWC team. After all this time I still can't believe it.

    TKM still undecided

    the fact that it's even a possibility is an extreme insult to UNLV and its fans.

    Back to Augmon

    They sure didn't seem that "amped the **** up" to play for him the whole time he was here as a seemingly big part of the coaching staff. Where was that "unconditional respect" as he sat quietly observing his teams make underachieving fools of themselves year after year? Did the 7th place MWC...
