Well, Reb fans, this should be fun

[4UNLV]

Since we love Cronin so much. Thinking he'll get a couple of boos.

 

[ph90702]

Awesome!  We’ve got at least one top fifty team on the schedule.  We should play at least one in Hawaii.  I would think that they’ll try to get one more.

[battle.borne]

Good game for the Rebs. 

[VandalBasher]

Solid game.  This is what helps recruiting great players.  It doesn't hurt to be in LV, though.  

[nvspuds]

Good match up for both schools..

I would like to see Nevada get a home and home with a good AAC school..

wonder if  Knuth can't get his alma mater out here (UConn).

Or play 1 at Hartford.

Of course they've slipped a little.

 

H & H with Cinn is great get for the Rebels!

[Amaru523]

Cronin better get booed right out of the building, what a worm.

 

I like the matchup though.

Nice schedule add. If UNLV can get a H&H with a Cincy-caliber team, Reno should be able to as well.

Vegas has always been able to schedule better home and home games than Nevada.  I love Reno but the rest of the country loves visiting Las Vegas.  Not sure if that’s the main reason they are able to sign these series, but it has to play a role?

It plays only a small role.  Why doesn’t Miami get better home and home games?

Cronin wouldn't have fit in vegas. Reb fans would run him out of town for requiring his players to play defense.

They don't really need many.  They just need to get ready for the ACC.

He used  them in order to get a raise. Rebtard Nation was dumb enough to believe they actually had a chance to hire him and he played them like a fiddle.  They ended up with Marvin Menzies. When it all was said and done, they would have been better off keeping Dave Rice. 

[SixPack]

Cincy probably didn’t realize there is another school in Nevada that plays basketball and thought they were scheduling the Wolf Pack as a shot at redemption 

Seriously though, nice addition on the schedule. Should help the profile of the conference.

Oh ph. Miami doesn't try to get them.  They don't want to play true road games ooc against good programs.  Last year they played 2  , one was the big10 challenge the other was a favor to a recruit at gw.

That’s not true at all.  Mississippi State was 9-9 in an eight bid SEC and missed the tournament.  Syracuse was 10-8 in the ACC in 2017 and missed the tournament. You have to win some marquee non-conference games if you finish around .500 in conference.

Miami had a stacked team and were ranked.  Their ooc didn't hurt them a bit.

It is a good game.  It's odd that Cinci is willing to take a RPI hit when they are trying for a good seed.

The Rebs RPI will probably be close to 200.
