Got into a disagreement with an associate of mine so I’d like to know where you guys are at on this . I say under no circumstance do we rush the court if we were to beat UNR tonight , Tarkanian would be rolling in his grave. For decades we’ve been the superior program , but now we’re considering to rush the court against our in state rival because they’ve been good the past 2 years? It would be a slap in the face to our programs deep tradition if we did this tonight , in my opinion.

Never. Ever.
 
Agreed. Unanimous. Be joyous and act like you expected unlv to win.
 
I agree with your pal, we should absolutely rush the court. Stop living in the past old timer, this isn’t the 80s anymore... They’re balling rn and this is a rivalry game where everyone is gonna be pregaming and lit for the game. There’s no other option than to rush the court if we win. But if you think you can stop me with your old brittle knees, then please be my guest.

Hey, you’re one of the guys that shows up? Good for you.

I wouldn’t stop you, students should do whatever they want. So should the grown ups if they feel like rushing. UNM did. There’s no harm in it. I think rushing vs Reno isn’t worth it myself, but have at it.

Under no circumstances will I be rushing the court for a win over Reno, but you know the students will if we win.
I’m trying to think of times I rushed.... last 3 games of WAC tourney ‘98 I did and it was a blast. Such an underdog in all those games and the city was starting to swell with that run.

I did not when we beat BYU in 2000 for the championship. But that game was so anticlimactic too - we were up something like 26-2 to start the game.

I did not when we beat BYU under Kruger in the MWC.

I did (sorta) when UNC was undefeated and #1, certainly not to the level of Crying Jimmy @umeh43 though.

I think that’s it. There was never any reason to contemplate rushing under Tark, even when Temple was #1 and undefeated. It was expected.

I do think ESPN Championship court rushes are cool and definitely called for. Those are for bids, that type of scene is a big part of the face of March Madness to me. Regular season vs UNR just doesn’t do it for me personally.
 
98 WAC tourney, gathered around the court. Anybody else think the half court shot by Andre Miller was going in? Think it came just of the front of the rim.
 
The problem is that UNLV has started most of their games in the hole. You can get away with it when you play bad teams, but when you play decent or good teams, you pay for it!

I’m 42. My days of rushing anything is over.

I stormed Sam Boyd when we beat Arkansas
 
Piece together all the minutes I've watched at the Mack live and it probably equals 4 total games.

It's tough - Gotta work early in the morning and you have to sit through ass whipping like that? I'm old, man! Body can't take that kind of abuse!

I hear you. Have to weigh things. A lot of us are in the same boat/titanic.
