Posted on: Bellfield tolls again for UNLV in 76-71 win over Louisville

I was there and, in my opinion, the court was not "stormed." Half the students from the student section walked down to the court to celebrate with the team. Seriously, people need to drop that. Especially, L'ville fans.

And, L'ville looked really good and played hard the entire game. UNLV just looked better. L'ville should be a top 25 team... and so should the Rebels.

Posted on: Budget crunch at UNLV results in ... pay raises?

What many posters seem to forget is that it is a buyers market right now. This is the perfect time for UNLV to be spending money. The university should be vigorously scrounging up money to secure the excellent faculty it has now and hire new faculty that will increase the university's academics and prestige.

This same outlook should be applied to building at the university. Construction costs are low and there is plenty of relatively inexpensive, experienced labor around the valley right now. Raise the money and build new dormitories (and make a mandatory 1 year stay on campus for all freshman), build a new stadium stadium on campus, etc.

This would be the perfect time for someone with vision to take UNLV to the next level.

Posted on: Rebels survive scare from Division-II Washburn

What, has the BYU-Journal dba Review-Journal reduced itself to using ringers? Doesn't get enough readers for its monthly UNLV articles?

"why is everyone jumpin on dudes case for posting a relevant quote?"- Because its a competing publication! Seriously, why do you have to ask that?

Posted on: TCU is favored by a million over UNLV ... who ya got?

Patterson seems like a classy (old school) type guy. I don't see him humiliating an opponent even if it would help slightly in the rankings. That said, 31 points is not "a million" by any means. So, 31 sounds EXACTLY right. I say the bookmakers got this one right and it is an even 50-50 and, therefore, not the bet to stake the ol' homestead on. That my un-biased opinion.

As for contributing to the dialogue, I think everyone is over-estimating how well TCU's pass rush will do against UNLV. So, I think the Rebs put up 17 in the first half. But, passing is all we have. TCU makes fixes at half and no more UNLV points. 37-17, TCU, sounds about right to me. Thats my biased opinion.

Ouch, even my biased opinion isn't that good for UNLV. Sorry Rebs, its not you- its your coach.

Posted on: As defense improves, Rebels falter elsewhere in 35-15 loss to Utah

Bam, I feel the same way. I'm even done criticizing. This coaching staff (not the players- they have SO much heart) have made me indifferent. It really, really sucks to be a UNLV football fan.
