Lady Rebels

Lady Rebels are going to get over the hump against these P4 and Trny teams. They’re close and once they get that first win they’re going to become a very tough team to play. Keep it up ladies!!
 
We, need at least 5,000 people to attend tomorrow's game against #9 ranked Oklahoma Sooners at the T & M.
Only, $2 dollars! This game should have been on CBSSN or FS1, but it is on the MWN. Terrible.
The, only UNLV basketball team worth seeing!

 
I believe it's Roman Owen's turn.

BTW - This happens before home games in case some of you haven't been. If the pattern follows, it should be near the DQ on the concourse. However, there have been times when it's just inside the entrance to the T&M to the right in the lounge.

I've been to one. Talked, to Roman Owen last year.
He is the only UNLV Assistant coach, who has locked his X account. All, the other coaches, I follow on X.
 
Just confirmed that there will be one tomorrow and the coach said it will be Karli Burris.

Okay, I'll talk to her tomorrow.
Wondering, how they are going to contain 6' 4" All American Center Raegan Beers in the Post.
All, I've seen of her at Oklahoma is that she is unstoppable and just makes lay-ups, over shorter opponents.
I, would be surprised if we win tomorrow night but it is going to be a great game. Anything, can happen.
 
Also, after the game you can talk with the players and the coaches. 3x MWC champs. Who gets access like this?

Yep, only one player above 6'2" on the roster. Maybe a foul eater for the night.
 
Oklahoma totally dominated us in the second half. Medium crowd. This team is not as good as last year - at all.
Desi Rae Young, did not use her Covid Year.
And, she is not even playing professional basketball this year. What give's, Desi? You could have really helped us.
We, do not have a go to player, at all.
But, in reality. Every team, in the Mountain West, would have gotten destroyed by #9 ranked Oklahoma too.

Lady Rebels, will win the MW regular season and MW tournament again.
Probably, a 12th seed. NCAA's, here we come.

I heard that Desi had an injury issue keeping her from playing overseas.

Feels as if the team does miss Desi's presence and they need to find a way with a different kind of leadership. I think McKinna Brackens can be that person but will have to grow into it as opposed to Desi who had it from season 1.

Can't agree more that there is not a go-to player at the moment. For 3 years Kiara was the one who could hit that pull-up jumper when the team needed a boost. It's a struggle. So glad she ended the 0-14 start to the season on 3-pointers. Think it made to 16 before she 2 of the next 3 tries.

As much as playing these tough games can help, need to win a few as well. Former coach thinks the Northwestern game is one of those.

I, think the right game to sort of get the Lady Rebels over the hump is our next game. UCF.
They, are a P4 team that is similar to us. They, are athletic with length and are 5-0.
Haven't, played anybody except Marquette. All at home. This, will be their true road test. This, is winnable.

Yea, Brackens looks like she can be a leader for us. Hope, she steps out.
Disappointed, in Alyssa Brown's season. She, is too quiet and her on the court performance has been under whelming.
She, scored 2,600 points in HS. You, would think that would translate nicely, to the college level.
She, never averaged scoring double-digits in a season. That, time for her is now.

Kiara, is the leader for us. She, is the player that is leading the team so far.

Love Kiara, but she is a big part of the problem. She is needed and plays nearly the entire game when it's close. But she has to score or we go nowhere. Last year shooting stats - FG% 43.9, 3 Pt. % 40 %. This year stats - FG% 34.1, 3 Pt. % 10 %. ( Probably has to take shots she normally wouldn't, due to a lack of DESI)

Ki and AB are pressing. A couple of games ago they were both shooting 100 points below their career averages.
