And UNLV is doing a good job on him. That’s why it’s tight.
They are system driven, so is BSU, AFA, and USU. UNM is more by way of talent, that’s what UNLV and SDSU try to do as well, more reliant on individual ability.
Scoreless the last 3 minutes. We saw that fade with DJ on court also. Ckk offense does not generate good shots in crunch time. That is a big story over every year of ckk.
Fire whom? If you are talking about Kruger, you know they are not going to do anything until the last game of the season is over!
I think these are a few good prop bets for UNLV for next season:
1) They will have a new basketball coach.
2) They will finish with a better record than this year.
3) The new coach will not be a past UNLV player.
Does anyone else have prop bets for next season?
Seems a few teams have gone the route of announcing a coach won’t return but will finish the season.
That can be awful if the team goes on a miracle run in the conference tournament.
But the odds are more that the team goes through the motions for the rest of the season instead, which is hard to watch.
The benefit of that announcement. You could start looking. But if it’s a working coach you’re targeting, that’s a bit of a stall. If it’s a non working coach, you can get it done.
If you recall, it was similar for UNLV when we got LK. He was without work, Spoon had stepped down. Jay wasn’t get the job, though he tried to make his best case as UNLV fell to Utah in the conference finals in Denver. The only other hiccup was that George Karl was interested in the job, some fans really wanted him … and rallied. In the end, a token interview was granted … but the deal with Lon was done weeks prior.

I hate “record” as a measurement because there are different strengths and they can vary wildly. 17, 18, 19 wins with a super tough schedule is better than 20 with a moderate schedule or 22 with a Marv schedule.
With this years, last years, year before schedule /conference, anything below 20 is failure.
It’s a really bad 4 year tenure, it rivals Menzies’ tenure, which was worse than even Rollies.
Personally, I don't see that even being an issue. Four seasons of little more than ineptitude far outweighs bad performances by 3-4 opponents in a conference tournament. And make no mistake, this team isn't good enough to beat top 5 teams in this league (even if it's not good) without those teams playing poorly.
The way I see it Menzies was better in performance. I think conference wins is one of the best measures of a coaches performance. You can mess with OOC, but in conference is similar year to year.
Menzies Conference wins: Y1 - 4, Y2 - 8, Y3 - 11.
CKK Conference wins: Y1 - 10, Y2 - 7, Y3 - 12, Y4 - 8?
Menzies increased his wins - CKK up and down.
You sure you want to do that? I am in the running as a finalist for the new position as head coach for UNLV basketball when the position open up along with two other very worthy candidates. I am not suppose to let it out, but I have attached a short video of the other two finalist!
