I’ve never seen it like this for UNLV football. I’m talking organically, unforced …. I used to get asked for hoops tickets every single game until Marv took over. Not once since. Many people used to talk Rebel hoops, just casually. Now hoops isn’t a blip to anybody, not even people that you’d expect it to register with (parents of former players/recruits, for example). They just don’t evoke anything.
It’s only three weeks in and the bottom could fall out, but it’s a common discussion with football. Whether at work, shopping, just out and about. The number of requests for tickets has been staggering (I don’t have any to spare). But looking for lines on tickets, the best way to wrestle Allegiant, etc.
It’s a freaking bizarro world in which UNLV basketball has been left for dead and football is rising from their ashes.
