Today’s bus trip to Ely begins an 11-day stretch that could go a long way in determining what kind of football season UNLV will have.
UNLV Football
UNLV junior defensive tackle Perry Eppenger did some soul searching this spring and realized he hadn’t done all he could to become a better football player.
UNLV sophomore cornerback Quinton Pointer dislocated his left elbow in Wednesday morning’s practice, but the Rebels received an encouraging report before the night session.
Terrance Lee thought he would be suiting up at safety for Mississippi this season.
On campus for the first day of summer school, Chris Jones walked into the UNLV football locker room.
UNLV defensive end Luke Plante was in excellent position to win a starting job last year but injured his right kneecap in training camp, ending his season before it began.
Incoming freshman wide receiver Phillip Payne didn’t take long to win over his new UNLV teammates.
All of the interceptions, all of the personal fouls, all of the losses over two long decades of futility make it difficult to believe UNLV once had a successful football program.
UNLV’s dream is to blow up the low expectations, to play so well that no right-thinking media member — yes, they exist — would even consider placing the Rebels at the bottom of the Mountain West Conference poll the following season.
Forget about waiting until the team leaves for its annual camp in Ely. It looks as if UNLV will name its starting quarterback before then.
If there were a judge and jury of 12 impartial souls not aware UNLV football exists — I could find 12 on my block — the verdict could be read following opening arguments.
