Knights kinda sliding, Rebels making a comeback to regain the city???? 🤷🏻♂️ love the Knights, but when
@TheRunninRebels
are Runnin’ ... forget about it
UNLV Twitter this time of year is pretty much the same… coulda, shoulda, woulda, resentment, & jealousy. It’s insane that 6 teams from the MW are dancing this year and UNLV isn’t one. That is an embarrassment
Utah State is now 14-1, new coach, replaced nearly everyone from last year’s roster, and knocked off

CSU. Dont give me any excuses why it can’t be better at UNLV. Schools in our conference continue to show that a quick turnaround is attainable.
Gotta love what UNLV football has done on the recruiting scene so far under Odom, especially on the local front. Kids parents believe in the staff and aren’t afraid of kids staying home. Looking forward to watching how they perform on the fall.
Lastly, I feel bad for Bryce Hamilton. Stuck it out here with 3 different coaching staffs, carried this team this year, & doesn’t ever get to experience the NCAA tournament.
Worst part of the night: I threw my phone onto the couch ,which hit my plate of food, launching broccoli at my wife, wife gets up and leaves telling me to stop being an idiot.

congrats
@TheRunninRebels
on the huge win
Two egregious calls in the last two minutes of the game decide the winner. UNLV leads the entire way only to be stripped of a victory because of some BS calls.
As good of a season as it has been, they just aren’t quite there yet. To be in this position after year one was special, something to build off of. Let’s go win a bowl game and end the season on a good note.

Houston has figured out it’s athletic department. They were in a very similar boat as UNLV, transient school, but they invested time and money and it’s paid off big time. UNLV will never learn
I really don’t understand why people are upset about the next UNLV FB hire. The pool of coaches willing to attempt to win at this place are so small. This guy was a HC in the SEC and just left a DC spot at another SEC school. Yet some believe he’s not good enough for lowly UNLV.
UNLV playing at home tonight against

Dayton… of course the Knights are also playing. Tonight will be another ugly reminder that the Las Vegas has moved on from Rebel Hoops. Only the die yards will be at the T&M tonight.
Wow
@RJ_Sports
no shout out for the big UNLV win on the front of the sports page... then I spot a line for an ex-Rebel player excelling at another school. Bad look
I want Dave Rice to get a HC job again and absolutely kill it... thus I hope he doesn’t land at UNR. If he does so be it and I’ll root for him every time out unless it’s against UNLV.
Well... it must be in my blood because I said I was done, but find myself optimistic for the future of Rebel basketball. Maybe they found a hidden gem, for now I hope he can re-recruit some key pieces. Is it November yet?
#UNLVmbb
If UNLV can execute on the offensive end like they did tonight on a regular basis, they will be serious contenders for the conference championship. Still a little skewed with the competition, but it’s been a fun team to watch this far
Honestly this is the best case scenario for the MW... will get two bids now and today’s championship game should be packed and an exciting game. It’s been awhile since the Mack has seen a good MW finale.
UNLV basketball… gives me a glimmer of hope every season only to disappoint me once again. When I die some day I’m going to request my pallbearers wear Rebel jerseys so they can let me down one last time 😂
Apathy has truly set in for UNLV Hoops... again, except now fans have something else to turn to in the Golden Knights. Scary times for UNLV athletics as they’ve always banked on being the only game in town.
I remember when I created a twitter account... Lon Kruger just left UNLV and I was intrigued by the up to the second info about UNLV basketball & coaching search. Twitter nowadays has become vile & so political, I absolutely hate it.

One of my favorite MWCT moments is when
@jovanunlv1
went off in the 2nd half of the championship game against BYU.

Great read on Tark, UNLV, Las Vegas, & how crooked the NCAA is. Like
@HuntNice12
said, Tark must be rolling in his grave to see the NCAA set up shop in LV.
Barry Odom on Senika McKie after the senior receiver dropped a potential game-tying touchdown pass in the final seconds at Fresno State:
“Obviously, he feels awful. That play didn’t decide the game. He doesn’t understand that right now.”
If UNLV can defend and rebound like they did today against the MW opponents, they should be able to win most games. That was all effort which is a welcoming change.
Rebels playing like the team we thought they’d be at the beginning of the year. It’s a shame it took them so long to wake this season, hopefully it last
Not going to lie, i didn’t think we had a shot at Dedan about 6 months ago. Kudos to the staff and others for stepping up and landing the biggest recruit this program has seen in years.
Jaden Hardy skips college and goes straight to G-league… ends up in the 2nd round. Did this help him or perhaps he would’ve been a higher pick had he dominated in the college ranks first? Helluva player, just an interesting “what if”
Rebel fans and Las Vegas…. Get out and support
@unlvfootball
this Saturday! We’ve been waiting for this for far too long not to be there packing that place and showing this team we support them!
Is this the resurgence of UNLV dominating in the paint with Brandon McCoy and Shakur Juiston? Both were extremely efficient tonight & made great interior passes.
#UNLVmbb
Wonder if new
@unlvfootball
coach Barry Odom tries to lure in former All-American Missouri safety and Las Vegas standout Jarrell Harrison onto staff who is currently a HC at Adams State.
#UNLVFB
Well having EJ Harkless has been fun to watch, really wish he had the pieces around him to be contending for a league title. He looks exhausted, hopefully he can throw another 30pts up tmrw night.
From 2007-2013 this time of year was so much fun as a Rebel fan… 10 years with no NCAA to look forward to and longest in school history. Really hope Kevin can right the ship that has been sinking since they fired Dave.
