  1. It’ll be Todd or Tod.
  2. We need some junkyard dogs, guys that will get after the ball. Too many guys this year standing around waiting on the ball. We have a seven footer parked deep in the corner waiting for a kick out or pass. Just +++++ing standing there, and you wonder why he doesn’t get any rebounds. I think the other thing is coaching, maybe some staff changes. Guys weren’t mentally ready for games, and that starts with coaching. I’m pretty sure if Lon was coaching this team, there would be a player or two kicked off the team.
  3. I don’t think the team was mentally strong all season. You could tell they were deflated when SH made 8-9 buckets in a row. After that, they sort of mailed it in, you could see it with their body language.
  4. Wow, getting boatraced at the end there. Seton Hall was the first one out of the NCAA tournament and so far it just goes to show how far unlv has to go to get there.
  5. Wish it started at 430, I’ll miss a few minutes of the first half.
  6. The exhibition games were meaningless, and they moved one of them to the cox arena. I would rather play Utah Tech or Southern Utah. I also think unlv should be scheduling BYU and the Grand Canyons. Should be an annual thing so we can get ramped up for conference play, there’s plenty of good teams in the west. Technically the you could say CKK has 19 wins this season but 21 sounds like progress and an obvious easy sell to fans.
  7. 10-12k isn’t little, but unlv needs to rethink its approach to business, other arenas are doing better and attracting more people. Unlv should rethink the unlvnow project and make the campus more oriented to students.
  8. Must be bad if Louisville is calling a Pitino.
  9. I wouldn’t expect a lot of roster shuffling. Players on the roster now seem to have bought into CKK. You can see it on the sidelines etc. Karl Jones might use his Covid year. Hill might be back and so on. We just need a shooter and a backup PG.
  10. He has to be in the Karl Malone role, get someone else to be the Ostertag. The key is to create mismatches , and going against smaller sized forwards creates opportunities.
  11. We’ll have to see if CKK can capitalize on this mini run here, to me it’s another what if season. Meaning what if we didn’t blow it vs AFA or what if we had Kalib for the opener, what if Keylan was eligible sooner etc. This is the third what if season to me. Should’ve been NIT eligible in the other seasons at minimum. That being said, one of the biggest knocks on CKK was his paper thin resume, he’s got some big games won under his belt now, some postseason experience etc. I think this should help on the recruiting trail, moreso if DJ returns. The training wheels are off so to speak and he can’t rely on the lack of experience excuses anymore to save his job. The next step is to win the conference or go dancing. Have to win at a consistent level otherwise he’s toast next year.
  12. Keita will destroy us. One of CKKs biggest whiffs on the trail.
  13. Sounds exactly like the Lon Kruger situation, absolute collapse in the tournament and out of nowhere a desperate p5 program comes calling.
  14. Or kids have wised up and don’t want to pay the insane tuition rates.
  15. We’re about to find out how good this team really is, at this point of the tournament there is no “bad” teams. Plus teams will be more motivated to play for hardware now that it is within reach. So it’s going to be tough to roll into Seton Hall and get a win.
  16. Apparently the crowd size was one of the bigger ones in the nit today, 8 games and Mack was the 3rd largest crowd behind Ohio State and Indiana today. Not much time to celebrate, turnaround is quick and have to travel to Seton Hall for a Tuesday or Wednesday tilt.
  17. We should be up double digits but BC was knocking them down like Creighton in the women’s game.
  18. Or it’s time to leave the conference. The gap is only going to grow as time goes on.
  19. Women’s basketball struggling vs Creighton. Was down 4 and Creighton just went on a 8-0 run in a minute to be up 12 at the half. Tough game.
  20. Could be worse….could be some team blowing a 17 point lead with minutes to go…
  21. Nevada forgot how to dribble. They forgot basic fundamentals. Wow.
