Loads of conversation on almost any football thread. Zip on basketball threads.
Are we a football school now?
- Thread starter WarthogRebel
- Start date
Yes, excitement, money being investment in football. If UNLV was hoops program KK would never got the job, let alone being in yr 4.
It’s been the only thing that has kept UNLV fans glued for the past two seasons. I wouldn’t quite go that far just yet, but it’s transitioning. I think another year with a bowl game and a dud basketball hire will make it a lot more clear.
I just care about competing. That doesn’t mean win national championships or go undefeated. It’s the fighting, emotion, drive to trying to be your best. If that's football, I’m fine with it.
Tark was 30 years ago. These current guys would be student managers for those teams, aside from a couple. And it’s been that way. They don’t drip pride or drive. It’s been halfhearted all the way around. With them not resembling anything from the past and with their being no plans on being a top 40 type of team … it’s fine by me if that’s the way the want to go. Sad, but whatever.

Now if we can only get the commentators calling our football games to quit calling us the Runnin Rebels. The transformation will be complete

3 years ago no, today yes, tomorrow who knows its UNLV.
For those under 40, UNLV used to be a national name in basketball. I kid you not.

Not only are we a football school, but we're a special teams driven football school.
The, 1990 NCAA basketball championship team is almost a memory.
Yes, UNLV is a football school now. No, longer a basketball school.

It hurts my heart to read and hear it but yes.
The new MWC should hoist a banner declaring itself the home of three former NCAA Men's Basketball Champions. Most people would be like "What?".
If you look at UNLV winning the national championship in 1990 compared to now, that would be like us in 1990 talking about a team that had won the national championship back in 1956!
Were saving up for the offseason.. Our best stuff comes out during coaching searches...
Yes, one football home game vs. Syracuse had more people in attendance then the entire home slate of games at the Mack.
If football didn’t exist we would be a woman’s volleyball school. Basketball is behind track and field at this point.
If your over 40 you remember UNLV 90 team, if your younger, you ask what does UNLV stand for, I know being here in MD.
I am excited for football, but it's shameful how sucking bad is the basketball program.
Dave Rice would start on this team, enough said of the stench.

Buddy the Utah Tech game might have covered that..
If that didn't, the 40k at the reno game covered this year and last year.
