What is wrong with you people!!!! It just got explained to you that training camp in Ely cost next to nothing hurting no one including the University and YOU, John Q. Taxpayer. It's amazing how many UNLV Football haters there are in their own community.
Even if you're a teacher that just got laid off and you're upset that UNLV can still play football while you sit at home, remember, IT DOESN'T MATTER!!! Because it didn't cost them anything to go to Ely. So stop being so vindictive!
Go REBELS! Get your legs in the cooler mountain air and come south and do well and the rest of LV wouldn't say anything. If I remember right, we used to send the team to southern Utah. I would go to Ely if I could.
