FWIW, UNLV is going has submitted plans for approval to get 6,500 fans in the stands at UNLV games (10% of allegiant stadium capacity). Pretty funny that UNLV will play in that stadium in front of fans before the Raiders. And yes, I'm going to try and go to at least one game (probably Boise) to che...

Interesting that they are making an exception for Boise to play BYU (AFA has one too for Navy but that was already in the works)

bowl season is going to be wacky this year. No win requirement and bowl games can start as early as Dec 1. https://footballscoop.com/news/ncaa-releases-bowl-requirements-for-2020-hint-there-are-none/ Makes sense with the abbreviated season, but will be interesting to see how it plays out. It's possi...

watching games on Saturday knowing we weren't playing, and won't be any time soon. No need to rehash the reasons here - we all know both sides of the equation inside and out by now. Just lamenting that the season has started and some teams get to play while we get to watch. Must be especially hard o...

Utah is faring better and opening up more quickly than other states, and was never as restrictive as most. The fascinating question will be if some schools/conferences are open for business/football and others aren't. Do you re-schedule with teams that will play? I could see Utah giving the green li...

Looks like spring sport senior athletes will be given another year of eligibility. NCAA looking into what to do with those that played winter sports. Would be fascinating if they offered another year of eligibility to Seniors in winter sports?? https://twitter.com/GoodmanHoops/status/123851508045681...

they are going fast on vividseats. Only 3 tickets left rn. I'm going to head down before the Aggie game and give scalping a try. Wish me luck, lol.

I'm a local. Can't make Thursday but will be there Friday and Saturday if USU advances.

Also note they are doing the pregame alumni events so plan on arriving early if interested in attending.

If you haven't purchased MWC tourney tickets yet and are planning on it, you can get 4 lower bowl tickets for the price of 3 right now.

Dave Aranda gets the head coaching gig at Baylor. Was some talk in December that he might take the UNLV job before they hired someone else. Baylor clearly a better job. Will be interesting to see how he does as head coach.

Even when Spectrum magic was at its peak, were we regularly selling out non-conf games in November and getting large student crowds? IIRC, even during the peak years the students showed for instate rivals and in Jan/Feb/March for the conference games. If we don't get large turnouts to the conference...

Perspective: we've played a really tough schedule and we've lost to good teams, all on the road.

your post says tweet unavailable, but i'm guessing this is about Terin Adams, the CB transfer from ASU? I saw the same tweet but like you I have no idea if he is immediately eligible.

Nevada played at USC and Utah last year to get these home games.. I'm certain USU would be willing to play an H/H with either of them. I get why USC wouldn't want an H/H with USU, but Utah is **** and just wants to solidify its claim as the top athletic department in the state by avoiding other in-...

We are on his current list of teams:

New UNLV coach was able to convince three UNLV players that had entered transfer portal to stay in Vegas. Wonder if Alford can convince any of these guys to stay in Reno?

FormerlyVegasAggie71

Also - Lunardi has us as an 11 seed (and the only MWC team in the field) in his "way too early" bracketology.

FormerlyVegasAggie71

Others I've seen:

Jeff Goodman has us at 19, Jon Wilner has us at 21.

Gary Parrish did not put us in his Top 25 and 1.

Starting the season ranked would be amazing. Anyone know when last time that has happened?

With the new coach at UNLV another Summit league guy making $1.4 million. USU needs to keep Smith happy that will take charter flights to 9 conference games, and a salary of at least $850, 000. Not only $1.4 for TJ, but the almost $1m for the buyout to SD State + whatever they have to pay Marv if h...

People scalping tickets in the parking lot are most of those legit tickets or should I be worried? We are coming down tomorrow and was not sure if i should be concerned or just go to the UNLV box office. Most are legit.

I've searched on this forum and through Google and can't find any information about the final verdict regarding Duryea's contract dispute, did this eventually get sorted out? Is it still in the courts? Just curious if anyone has any information regarding the matter. For what it's worth I predicted ...

If 8,976 is poor attendance then I must have really miss remembered. What I do remember is Hawaii shooting 60% from the field and three. I also remember Kuebler putting 28 points up on us. My recollection is the same as NVAggie, it was a good crowd - students were out in full force (thanks to a don...

I know some think we're a lock for NCAA and some (like myself) are a bit more skeptical. As such, does anyone know what the NIT selection committee rules are regarding co-conference champs? I know the NIT is required to take a regular season conf champ that doesn't win it's conference tourney and fa...

I like Hutson and think he's a good coach, but not sure how he got one vote and that Smith wasn't unanimous? Is there a rule that prohibits the local media member from voting on their own team (i.e., the Utah State voter couldn't vote for any USU candidates)? That's the only way this makes sense.

Local - I have a conflict Thursday, but me + 3 on Friday and Saturday

FormerlyVegasAggie71

I was a freshman at USU in the 03-04 season when we were in the top 25 and left out, so I will never think we're a "lock" until our name is on the screen on Selection Sunday. I believe we have to win at minimum our first game in the tourney, and likely our 2nd. I was a junior at USU that same year....
