  1. This game was a total waste of time. Stanford played tremendous. They were well coached and played under control. Even their garbage time players were outplaying UNLV's starters. They are the real deal, but they should not be 29 points better than the Rebels. They put on a shooting clinic from behind the three point line. Rice has shown he cannot coach and has no leadership skills at all. This UNLV team doesn't have any discipline whatsoever and doesn't possess poise and Rice is the blame for all of it. Did anyone get a chance to listen to that worthless and lame pre game pep talk speech Rice gave? Rice couldn't motivate a bunch of third graders they way he speaks. No fire at all in his voice. No wonder his teams have regressed year after year. The defense had too many holes in it. That zone is not working. Better learn to play hard nose man to man defense and junk that zone. Use it only in certain situations, but your main core defense should be solid man to man. Teach them how to defend. It was the worst coaching and defensive effort ever. Sorry folks Rice is NOT the coach for UNLV basketball. He may be a "nice guy" but as you already know, nice guys finish last.
  2. Yeah I am sure 18 year olds are going to be real worried about some 72 year old fart who had a losing record at Loyola Marymount (77-117) and was fired. They will laugh at him. How many times do people have to get fired at UNLV before they stop coming back. PERS retirement benefits are mighty nice to entice Grandpa Good back yet again to ebb fired! UNLV Basketball is a joke. These bums failed 15 years ago and now get to fail again!
  3. Things are worse than we originally thought. Read this article about everything going on. Lies about concussions and the UNLV Football team beating up the basketball team. http://www.reviewjournal.com/sports/what-s-next-rice-100-percent-confident-he-ll-fix-program
  4. In what dream world are you living in? We will be lucky to win 15 games next season. NIT isn't even on our radar. Oh I forgot, the freshman are coming to save us! Or the San Fran white hope is coming? Good luck with that. Rice is finished.
  5. Dave Rice lost control of the team long ago. He is a lightweight coach and will not bring any success to the UNLV program. Launch him .... adios. Plus that hair cut is so bad he looks like a mid major dork...This is UNLV...poor Tark...aging and dying courtside...watching this garbage.
  6. If UNLV had any pride they would admit the mistake and remove him tonight.
  7. Worst Coach Ever... Dave Rice.
  8. No, just players who play above their ability all game and choke at the end when it counts. Reggie has the real players coming in next season and these Big West games won't be close. Reggie has done a superior job coaching up his team this season. You can't hold a good man down for long. Winners Win and Reggie is a winner.
  9. You are delusional. Northridge lost six out of the final seven games last season and quit on the coach. They only had five wins in conference and finished in 9th place! This season they finished in 5th place and improved as the season went along. They lost five games this year in the last 30 seconds. Huge improvement in year #1. Next year will be even better! Rice will be gone!
  10. Good coach, not a great coach.
  11. I don't think BDJ will make a world of difference. UNLV will likely beat Wyoming and lose against SDSU in the semi's. Fisher is not a great coach but he is better than Rice. BDJ's main problem is that his coaches don't put him in a position to be successful, instead Rice and staff set him up for failure. Rice is to blame, not BDJ. The kid only does what the coaching staff allows him to do, coming down on him this late in the season only shows how inept and inadequate Dave Rice has been all season with BDJ. BDJ would be a decent player if he was put into the proper role by a competent coaching staff, that is never going to happen under Dave Rice. Put Theus in charge for next season and BDJ would be a star.
  12. More like one step forward, one and a half steps back. The program is NOT improving, each season we get worse so how could he be moving forward?
  13. Rice-A-Roni a Mountain Western Treat!
  14. Dave Rice recruited them so he is responsible for their successes and failures. Reggie Theus and Cal State Northridge are #1 in the country in free throw percentage at 78.2% per game. Dave Rice is responsible for recruiting and coaching them, he is a failure when they are a failure. UNLV is #311 in free throw percentage.
  15. If/when UNLV loses to UNR on Saturday the rebels will be the #4 seed in the Tournament and Boise will be #5. UNLV would play Boise In Quarterfinals UNLV would play UNM in the Semifinals UNLV would play SDSU in the Finals Good luck with that!
  16. UNLV RPI is #105 as of 03/05/2014. 1-5 Record this season vs. Top 50 RPI Basketball teams. Worst home UNLV team to ever play in the Thomas & Mack Center 30 year history.
  17. Reggie Theus is now 2-0 in the Big West and 10-7 overall after tonights win over Hawaii. This is with a horrible Northridge team that only won 5 games total last year in the Big West. Reggie is ready and waiting!
  18. Reggie Theus has been a candidate for the UNLV Head Coaching job multiple times. Not just once. He has been passed over several times for whatever reason (racism is my guess). In the past people always claimed that Theus couldn't get the job because he didn't have a legitimate Bachelors degree (California Coast University 2002). Since that time Theus has also completed a Bachelors degree from Central Michigan University so they can't really claim that as a reason anymore. People will make remarks and spread lies that Theus has something in his past (background checks) that keeps him from being hired by a major college. Somehow he worked at Louisville so he must be able to pass a background check, it is all lies by people who are racist. Most likely the only reason is because he is black. Racism still exists but people don't like to talk about it, it makes them feel uncomfortable. But it DOES exist. If Reggie Theus was white, he probably would have been the UNLV Head Coach over ten years ago. I still believe that in the end, What is Right will win out and Reggie will get the job he deserves and that he is destined for. I also believe when he is hired, UNLV will finally return to our rightful spot at the top!
  19. Rice has two years remaining on his contract after this season. UNLV would have no problems getting rid of Rice (he probably will resign) and hiring Theus away from Northridge. This is the correct move. Just a matter of time until it happens.
  20. Incorrect, we knew that Kruger belonged in the MidWest where his style would thrive. Kruger was a bad fit for UNLV, he is a great fit @ Oklahoma. UNLV needs to hire someone who is a great fit at UNLV. That wasn't Kruger, never would be Kruger. He looked to bail just about every year he was in Vegas.
  21. 14 or more losses and UNLV probably cuts their losses and makes a move. Only thing holding it up might be our presidential situation. Will the interim president be willing to make a move or will they want to wait for a new president to be in place? Can Tina Kuntzer Murphy talk Rice into resigning to save face and money for the university? It is probably better for Reggie Theus if Rice gets one more year (2014/15) because Theus will get 20+ wins next year and be positioned perfectly to take on the UNLV job. Anti-Theus people should be hoping Rice gets removed now before Theus has a chance to prove himself!
  22. Bruce Pearl is a rat snitch that would never be accepted in Las Vegas. Any UNLV fan that mentions him for the Rebel job doesn't know a damn thing about college basketball or the city of Las Vegas. Pearl turned in Illinois for cheating and years later he got exactly what was coming to him when he got caught. Snitches get stitches! Pearl at UNLV would be worse than Massimino. Never would work.
  23. I agree. Theus is a proven head coach at the Division I and NBA level. Sid Green is a proven head coach at the Division I level. Augmon is a proven assistant at the D-1 and NBA level. You couldn't find a better recruiter than LJ for UNLV. Rice is the best secretary in the history of D-1 basketball. Proven Secretary skills!
