Tough loss today @ Fresno. Dudes are playing scary ball in the Valley!! Dark horse again for the MWC title?

Our little run was fun while it lasted. You could certainly add them to the mix of contenders for this conference title. I honestly don't know when is the last time we beat them on the road, which isn't good

Home loss to New Mexico for us now, ouch

we sure dropped off quickly

probably will lose one or two more then rise to mediocrity for a bit

we'll have one more nice winning streak, hopefully it's the Mountain West tournament that we hit that stride

Yeah, looks like your guys have to win to go dancing. Same for everyone at this point. Nevada wouldn't get an at large bid at this point. Not unless they go undefeated from here on out.

Even then there's not enough quality wins in this league so you would still miss the tournament

I got to meet Coach Rice last night and i thanked him for becoming a WOLF PACK coach. Super nice guy. Very humble. I told him we all knew that Coach Muss was going to be plucked from Nevada soon and i wished Coach Rice the best to take over our Pack.

While most think he sucks and was horrible, he made the REBELS a solid team year after year until a few got pissed off and ran him to RENO. Now, he is in his zen zone here and loves it.

I huge difference of quality of living from Southern Nevada college to Nevada.

Coach Rice knows his shit no matter what any fan has to say. Period.

I was hoping to see any "true Rebels fans" here in Reno but they didnt show up. Just like all the games at the Mack this season. Sad showing Rebels.

On a side note, i saw Menzies and thanked him for coming back to RENO !!! (For another ass whooping) just like the old WAC days with NMSU. He was polite until he realized what i was getting at lol.

Go Pack !!!

Rice didn't make the Runnin' Rebels a solid team. He won fewer games each year (26, 25, 20, 18 & 9 before he got fired last year). That's not improvement. That's going backwards.

So, winning those numbers of games equals a bad coach? I get it, Vegas wants more wins but look where the bitching got your fans. The biggest idiot coach ever and a shitty record. Menzies SUCKS ASS !!! Straight up. He wont win anything at UNLV.

LOL, UNLV has better boosters and funding and could have and should have got a better coach. A big name coach. Not some chump from NMSU. Just my 2 cents.

You say some funny stuff. I never said winning those #'s of games equaled a bad coach. I said he won fewer games each year. That's not getting better each year. How can you disagree w/ that? Your issues seem w/ the entire city of Vegas rather than just 1 fan who lived out there for 5 years & was a season ticket holder for 4.

Sorry if ya think I'm picking on ya or something. LOL. Not my intentions man.

Now, i do actually respect you for being an avid fan...for UNLV. A season ticket holder is great man. I've wanted to do season tickets here in Reno but i work most game nights. I had to take off early to attend last nights game but it was well worth it lol.

Now, for the most part, i don't like or gave a fuck about other Rebel fans especially on here. If they are nice and not dick faces, i get along. When punk ass bitches start calling names and other bullshit, i will fight back for sure. Same rules apply for all other teams in our MWC. If they're cool to chat with, sweet. If they are dicks...fuck 'em and their attitudes. You know how that works.

Now, back to the facts, with Rice winning 26 games the 1st year, that's a huge thing to do each year! I get getting mad due to their wins falling each year but i wouldn't be mad as long as they was 20 wins each year. I personally think he got shafted when he was fired but that's only me. I hate seeing coaches fired mid season unless certain facts are present such as abusive coaching or other bullshit but at least let the man finish his season for HIS PLAYERS! Fuck the fans. The players are what matters the most at that point. He's the Dad of them and by him being fired, they lost respect in their own University and admin there as well.

Think about it...How many HUGE players were lined up to play in Vegas this year but they left in a heartbeat when he was fired. Those players were let down by the same University that fired the coach. It's a big black eye for UNLV and it's going to take years to gain trust back from any big players to chose Vegas over another school.

The ironic part is that Rice was on the same team that FUCKING MADE VEGAS A REAL TEAM back in 1990 and 1991 !!!! He won a NC there.

LOL...you're a funny dude =)

Less than 10 games to go before all teams go to Vegas. It really is down to 4 teams to win it but anything can happen.

Indeed sir, tough to tell really, no one's been dominant enough for this tournament to be any sort of sure thing. We barely handled Air Force at home yesterday

Nevada just has way more talent. It's not even close. NMU and Nevada are two teams that have our number. If and when we face either of them in the tournament it will be curtains.
