Hell of a coach. Obviously has some issues.

Would have been a solid fit here any number of times.

may have saved his life and others lives he never coached in Vegas.

Can you imagine UNLV MBB right now if we had hired him? Vegas wojld have chewed him out.

Nobody was hurt and this could still have a positive outcome down the road, hope he finds the strenth to overcome this difficult issue. This will haunt him as he had a beast of a team put together for the upcoming season.

Ya know, if Kev can’t get the job done this year…

@lobbybuu any rumblings on roster raiding?

The players have a 30-day window to transfer out, if they chose to do so.

There's a few gems there as well... some high end recent transfers

I don't know if a year is long enough for the lily white woke UNLV admin to whitewash his transgressions. In the real world... probably....

What a way for a classic coach to go out. A shame.

Nothing. The only players that are worth getting would be Jesse Edwards, Battle, and Perez and each are out of reach for various reasons.

Tre Mitchell (West Virginia} has announced he will enter the transfer portal. Could this be a possibility? Averaged 12pts and 6bounds per/game last season.

WVU might be the least attractive P5 school besides Wazzu... small market, Huggins carried the school after their football program has collapsed since their Geno Smith glory days...

Im surprised. Their fanbase is diehard and they have a lot of donors that pitch in for NIL. Theyre the older crowd though so it may not be fun for a teen to come and play there.

I agree with Wazzu. Oregon state has to be up there too lol
