STRENGTH & CONDITIONING

Power Behind The Program

MIKE GERBER

Strength & Conditioning Coach

UNLV football’s strength and conditioning program is now under the guidance of veteran coach Mike Gerber. “The goal of the UNLV football strength & conditioning program is to maximize those physical traits that excellence in the sport demands,” Gerber said. “Football is a game of relatively short but extremely intense efforts requiring great power production. Because of this, the core of the program is made up of the Olympic Weightlifting movements. Run speed development and conditioning also follow the dictates of the game’s physical demands. Emphasis is placed especially on initial acceleration because most sprinting in football is relatively short. Conditioning is made up largely of position-specific movement patterns done in series of all-out effort with the quantity of work similar to a long football drive.” The Ernie Becker Sr. Strength and Conditioning Center’s 8,500square-foot deck features free weights, power racks and Olympian platforms. The 1,200-square-foot second level offers stretching and aerobic areas catered to each sport. The room also features a premium sound system to further enhance the workout experience.

More than 60 weight stations cover the state-of-the-art flooring inside the Ernie Becker Sr. Strength & Conditioning Center.

The covered agility drills area features 3,000 square feet of artificial turf.

EQUIPMENT

Rebels Wear Only The Best UNLV’S All-new Bill Ireland Locker Room

114 custom-made player lockers fill the Bill Ireland Locker Room inside the Lied Athletic Complex.

PAUL PUCCIARELLI Director

Now in his 26th year overseeing the equipment department for UNLV, Paul Pucciarelli says he and the school are committed to outfitting players to be both safe and stylish on the football field. “My philosophy behind equipment is that student-athletes have enough problems, that is, they have to compete in the classroom and on the field — worrying about equipment shouldn’t be a problem,” says Pucciarelli, widely known as Pooch. “Our players are lucky because of the system we have set up here. The athletic department and the university provide us a tremendous support group.” The Lied Athletic Complex’s 10,000-square-foot, two-sided equipment room gives all 17 UNLV sports the services of an immense facility designed with the student-athlete in mind. In one of 19 team and staff locker rooms, players and coaches can simply drop off their uniforms at the end of a practice or competition. The next day a clean version will be waiting for pickup in personally assigned lockers located in a wall surrounding the equipment room.

SPORTS MEDICINE

The Finest Care The Marilyn & Si Redd Sports Medicine Complex sprawls over an 8,500square-foot area.

KYLE WILSON Director

Providing the best possible preventative and rehabilitative care, the UNLV football athletic training staff is headed by Director of Athletic Training Kyle Wilson. Made possible by a generous gift of $1.5 million from Marilyn and Si Redd, the Lied Athletic Complexâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s athletic training facility incorporates the total scope of sports medicine over an 8,500-square-foot area. Aside from five staff offices, a rehabilitation room houses a dozen pieces of equipment including Cybex stationary bicycles, stair machines and treadmills, all under a natural skylight. The largest area features a dozen tables to offer student-athletes various treatments throughout the day. Taping, padding and bracing all take place in another all-inclusive room. Finally, an aquatic therapy room features three above-ground whirlpools surrounding a 10-feet deep pool for rehabilitative exercises.

TRAINING FACILITY

Palatial Practice Park The all-new Ernie Becker Sr. Football Fields at Bill “Wildcat” Morris Rebel Park

The UBU synthetic sports surface covers two full football fields on campus.

ne of college football’s largest and most impressive areas of its kind, Bill “Wildcat” Morris Rebel Park has been transformed into an athletic showcase over the past decade. In 2010, a state-of-the-art UBU synthetic surface was installed at a cost of $700,000. The artificial surface was originally installed in 2002 thanks to a $1 million gift from the family of Ernie Becker Sr. A completely new lighting system soon followed. Also, Bruce Bayne of Peccole Nevada and Ernie Becker Jr. helped develop an all-new grand entrance to the park, complete with pine trees, desert rocks and an archway. The palm-tree-lined area includes two full-sized practice fields. Also, Terry Manley of Champion Homes is responsible for the UNLV Football Manley Corner, which welcomes visitors, staff and student-athletes onto campus and into the heart of Rebel Football.

o less than 17 UNLV football players were named to the 2009 Academic All-Mountain West Conference team, which highlighted another strong year in the classroom by the Rebels. The total number of honorees, which ranked third in the league, was the second-most ever recorded by the program (20 set just one year previous) while marking the 11th consecutive season that at least seven UNLV players appeared on the academic team. In fact, academic advising for football, which boasts three full-time advisors, has helped produce 128 such honorees since the school joined the Mountain West Conference in 1999. Two players – WR Ryan Wolfe and WR Rodelin Anthony – ended their college careers as rare four-time conference academic honorees. In addition, eight Rebel gridders earned spots on the UNLV Dean’s List during 2009-10. In 2009, the program placed a player on the ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District First Team for the third consecutive season.

IN THE COMMUNITY

Rebels For A Cause NLV and its student-athletes are committed to success both on and off the fields of play. Rebel players have the opportunity to become more involved members of the Southern Nevada community. Through interaction with charitable organizations, local schools, hospitals and various youth events, the Rebels have become increasingly positive role models. Each year, the athletics department’s effort in Nevada Reading Week translates into dozens of area schools being visited by nearly a 100 athletes, coaches and staff. Other programs the Rebels have recently taken part in include holiday food drives, Child Haven’s holiday party, Communities in Schools, the Santa Clothes program, KLUC Toy Drive, Opportunity Village’s Santa Run and Joy Prom.

UNLV BOASTS FOUR COMMUNITY SERVICE ALL-AMERICANS SINCE 2002 UNLV wide receiver Casey Flair was one of only 11 players in the nation named to the 2007 American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) Division I-A Good Works Team. The Alaska native became the fourth Rebel in six years selected to the prestigious collection of student-athletes that has been honored for its performance off the field since 1991. Former UNLV lineman Tony Terrell (Lawndale, CA) was the program’s first-ever honoree in 2002 and two-time All-American safety Jamaal Brimmer (Las Vegas) earned the nod in 2004. Las Vegas native Leon Moore was honored in 2005. Nominated by their school’s sports information directors and voted on by an AFCA committee, successful candidates must be heavily involved in working for charity and/or service to their community.

UNLV PRO DAY

No less than 19 scouts from 16 different NFL teams were on hand at the 2010 UNLV Pro Day on campus. Taking part in all or some of the timed or measured events were a dozen Rebels who just completed their college careers and five of those players earned a spot in an NFL camp. This followed three UNLV seniors (wide receiver Ryan Wolfe, offensive lineman Joe Hawley and linebacker Jason Beauchamp) being invited to participate in Februaryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2010 NFL Scouting Combine at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.

UNLV has recently developed the Rebel Football Lettermen Alumni Program, which is designed to get former players back on campus and more involved with their alma mater. All football lettermen are invited to attend a special spring practice social mixer each April and then each fall attend an exclusive tailgate dinner before taking part in on-field pre-game festivities at the annual Homecoming game.

REBELS ON THE AIR DAVE McCANN

Radio Play-by-Play

Back at the microphone this fall calling the UNLV football action is play-by-play voice Dave McCann. The local veteran broadcaster was the sports director at CBS affiliate KLAS-TV 8 for over a decade before moving to anchor the station’s morning news in 2006. McCann previously worked play-by-play for UNLV football in 1996 and ’97 and then called MWC and WAC football and basketball games on television. He has hosted the “Gametime with UNLV Football” coach’s show on KLAS since 1995 and will also co-host the weekly “Bobby Hauck Radio Show” again this fall. A native of the Beehive State, McCann began writing sports for the Utah Daily Herald at age 14 and landed his first job in radio two years later. At age 21, he broadcast BYU and Air Force games for the Blue & White Network as sideline reporter and halftime host. A 1991 BYU graduate, McCann is a father of five.

MIKE PRITCHARD

Radio Game Analyst

Las Vegas native and former NFL star Mike Pritchard joined the UNLV broadcast team in 2006 as radio analyst for Rebel football. After a stellar career as a running back at Las Vegas’ Rancho High School, Pritchard went on to the University of Colorado (1987-90) where he would become the secondleading receiver in school history with 1,241 yards. His college career included being named team MVP during the Buffaloes’ 1990 National Championship season. Pritchard was the 13th overall selection by the Atlanta Falcons in the 1991 NFL Draft and became one of five players in league history to catch more than 200 passes in his first three seasons. He played nine years in the NFL: three with the Falcons, two with the Broncos and four with the Seahawks. Pritchard was inducted into the Southern Nevada Sports Hall of Fame in June 2007.

RADIO HOME OF THE REBELS

All 13 UNLV football games can be heard on Rebel flagship station ESPN 1100AM (KWWN). Dave McCann and Mike Pritchard will again bring Rebel fans all the action as part of a continuing partnership with Lotus Broadcasting. Games begin each week with a full halfhour of pre-game analysis and features. ESPN 1100 is also the home to “The Bobby Hauck Radio Show,” which will air live on Wednesdays from 7-8 p.m. PT unless otherwise announced.

UNLV TO APPEAR ON THE MTN., CBS C AND VERSUS THIS SEASON

The Mountain West Conference television package reaches a national audience through a combination of telecasts on The MountainWest Sports Network (The Mtn.), CBS College Sports Network (formerly CSTV) and VERSUS. The Mtn. has been available to cable subscribers in the MWC footprint since it first aired in 2006-07 and is available nationally on DIRECTV (Channel 616). In 2010, UNLV football will make one appearance on VERSUS, two on CBS College Sports and seven more on The Mtn. On Aug. 26, 2004, College Sports Television (CSTV) and the MWC announced a visionary partnership that revolutionized the college sports landscape. The landmark agreement was the first NCAA Division I football and men’s basketball conference-wide deal for CSTV and provided the network exclusive rights to all conference events, including cable and satellite television coverage, national over-the-air and satellite radio, video-on-demand and online broadcast rights. A succession of events since the fall of 2004 has improved the television model, including CSTV’s merger with Comcast SportsNet to create The Mtn. – MountainWest Sports Network and CBS Corporation’s purchase of CSTV. In 2008, CBS incorporated CSTV’s cable, broadcast and online activities into its world-famous brand. The Mtn. is co-owned by CBS C and Comcast SportNet. The relationship with Comcast SportNet also delivered another national broadcast partner in VERSUS. The MWC was the first exclusive college programming provider for the Comcast-owned entity, with football and both men’s and women’s basketball games. The CBS C/MWC partnership has guaranteed greater levels of television exposure for all league sports and has resoundingly met the fundamental goals of more exposure and preferred start times and dates. In the summer of 2006, the centerpiece of this historic relationship was realized with the launch of The Mtn. – the first sports network dedicated to serving a single collegiate athletic conference. The Mtn. provides sports fans blanket coverage of MWC athletics across multiple sports, including football, men’s and women’s basketball, and men’s and women’s Olympic sports. Along with live games, fans get a comprehensive array of news, features and analysis about their favorite MWC teams and players. In 2009-10, more than 250 MWC events were shown live on The Mtn., CBS C and VERSUS. CBS C is currently in over 38 million homes, while VERSUS reaches more than 79 million households.

UNLV ON TELEVISION The Mtn. will televise 30 MWC football games this fall, including seven involving UNLV.

NATIONAL EXPOSURE

Since 2000, UNLV football has made appearances on CBS C, VERSUS, The Mtn., ABC, TBS, Fox Sports West & Fox Sports Arizona, ESPN, ESPN2, ESPN U, ESPN+Plus and SportsWest. A new era began in the fall of 2006 as College Sports Television (CSTV, which was renamed CBS College Sports in 2008) became the official television partner for the Mountain West Conference, which forged a potential 14-year agreement that gave the fastest-growing independent cable network exclusive rights to football and men’s basketball, plus coverage for all other league sports. The multi-media partnership also includes The Mtn., the first-ever sports network dedicated solely to an intercollegiate athletic conference. This fall, 11 Rebel games will be available nationally through either CBS C, VERSUS, The Mtn or ESPNU.

UNLV, which has had 97 games televised in Las Vegas since 1999, opened on national television for five straight seasons in 2001-05.

MOUNTAIN WEST CONFERENCE BIRTH OF A CONFERENCE

The Mountain West Conference was conceived on May 26, 1998, when the presidents of eight institutions — Air Force, BYU, Colorado State, New Mexico, San Diego State, UNLV, Utah and Wyoming — decided to form a new NCAA FBS intercollegiate athletic conference. The split from the former 16-team conference re-established continuity and stability among the membership within the new league and signaled the continuation of its tradition-rich, long-standing athletic rivalries. Five of the MWC’s eight original members have been conference rivals since the 1960s (BYU, Utah, New Mexico, Wyoming, Colorado State), while San Diego State (1978) and Air Force (1980) were longtime members as well. UNLV and TCU entered the fold in 1996 and the Rebels continued as one of the original eight institutions that formed the MWC in 1999. TCU rejoined the group with its first year of competition in the Mountain West in 2005-06. On June 17, 2010, Commissioner Craig Thompson announced the addition of Boise State University to the MWC, effective July 1, 2011. From its inception in 1999, the Mountain West Conference has been committed to excellence in intercollegiate athletics, while promoting the academic missions of its member institutions. The Colorado Springs-based league is noted for its geographic diversity. Some of the most beautiful terrain and landscapes in the nation can be found within Mountain West boundaries, including the majestic Rocky Mountain range, which borders four MWC schools (Air Force, BYU, Colorado State and Utah). The high plains of Wyoming (elevation 7,220 feet – the highest Division I campus in the nation) contrast with the desert city of Las Vegas (the fastest growing metropolitan area in the West) and the Pacific Ocean locale of San Diego State. The southwestern flavor of New Mexico complements the western heritage and culture of Fort Worth, Texas, home of TCU. MWC members have participated in 41 bowl games in 11 years, with eight of the nine schools earning at least one bid. The MWC has earned 50 postseason bids in men’s basketball, including 26 NCAA Tournament appearances and two NIT Final Four berths; while women’s basketball has tallied 51 postseason bids, including 29 NCAA bids, five Sweet 16 appearances and one Elite Eight berth since 2000. The MWC has sent at least 30 teams to NCAA postseason events each year while capturing three team and 24 individual championships in 11 years.

MWC FOOTBALL YEAR IN REVIEW

The Mountain West Conference entered its second decade of existence by sending a record five teams to bowl games for the third consecutive year and posting the best win percentage among the 11 FBS conferences for the third time in six years. The MWC finished with a 4-1 (.800) mark in postseason play and claimed the 2009-10 Bowl Challenge Cup, becoming the only conference to win the trophy three times since the award’s inception in 2002-03. Three MWC teams were ranked in the final BCS Standings, Associated Press and USA Today/ESPN Coaches polls for the second straight year. TCU’s No. 4 BCS ranking earned it an automatic bid into a BCS game and marked the highest finish by a non-automatic-qualifying team in the final BCS Standings, surpassing Utah’s No. 6 ranking in both 2004 and 2008. The Horned Frogs’ appearance in the Fiesta Bowl marked the MWC’s third BCS bowl game since 2004.

With San Diego State’s Stephen Strasburg becoming the top pick in the 2009 MLB Draft, the Mountain West is one of only two conferences to have the No. 1 selection in each of the NFL, NBA and MLB drafts since the league’s founding in 1999.

Craig Thompson was the Mountain West Conferenceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first employee when he was named Commissioner on Oct. 15, 1998. Ever since, Thompson has navigated the newest NCAA Division I conference through the ever-changing landscape of intercollegiate athletics. As the league enters its 12th season of competition in 2010-11, Thompson continues to create and improve the opportunities for MWC institutions and studentathletes to be successful both academically and athletically. Since the Mountain West Conference opened its doors on January 4, 1999, Thompson has been committed to excellence in intercollegiate athletics, while promoting the academic missions of its member institutions. Progressive in its approach, the MWC has flourished under the guidance of Commissioner Thompson and continues to cultivate opportunities for student-athletes to compete at the highest level, while fostering academic achievement and sportsmanship. He has been instrumental in negotiating nearly $230 million in television revenue and has been an innovator in the postseason bowl structure as MWC teams have participated in five inaugural bowl games. His leadership and vision have helped the conference enhance its television revenue and exposure through revolutionary agreements with CBS College Sports Network and Comcast to become the first collegiate athletic conference to launch a dedicated sports channel featuring exclusive programming around its nine athletic programs. Thompson has been instrumental in strengthening the position of the Mountain West in the current Bowl Championship Series (BCS) structure. In 2006, he spearheaded an effort that resulted in better access for the MWC and more than doubled the annual BCS revenue on an annual basis for non-automatic-qualifying conferences. The MWC has been steadfast in its efforts to find a way to make the BCS system fair for all universities. Through its first 11 years of competition, the MWC has participated in 41 bowl games. For the third time in six years, the MWC posted the best win percentage among the 11 FBS conferences in 2009-10. The Mountain West claimed the 2009-10 Bowl Challenge Cup after sending five teams into postseason action and finishing with a 4-1 (.800) mark. Prior to his current role, Thompson served as the commissioner of the Sun Belt Conference for nearly eight years and as the only commissioner of the American South Conference prior to the merger of the two leagues in 1991. Thompson graduated from the University of Minnesota with an undergraduate degree in journalism. He and his wife, Carla, have a son (Ted) and a daughter (Emma).

BOWL CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES

The games participating in the Bowl Championship Series are the Fiesta Bowl, Orange Bowl, Rose Bowl and Sugar Bowl. In addition, the BCS National Championship Game will be played at one of the bowl sites. The fifth title game under the new format will be played Jan. 10, 2011, at University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Ariz. The Fiesta Bowl will be played in the same stadium nine days earlier. Any Bowl Subdivison team is eligible for at-large consideration. Automatic BCS qualifiers are: No. 1 and No. 2 teams in the final BCS standings; champions of the Big East, Big Ten, SEC, Pac-10, Big 12 and ACC; Notre Dame (if it finishes in the top eight) and a non-automatic qualifying BCS team that finishes in the top 14, or in the top 16 if it is ahead of a BCS champion. The Mountain West Conference is 2-1 in BCS games after last year’s Fiest Bowl appearance by TCU against future MWC member Boise State. 2011 BCS SCHEDULE January 1 – Rose Bowl January 1 – Fiesta Bowl January 3 – Orange Bowl January 4 – Sugar Bowl January 10 – BCS National Championship Game The Mountain West Conference was the first league without an automatic bid to send a team to the BCS.

MWC BEST OF THE BOWLS (AGAIN)

For the third time in six years, the Mountain West Conference in 2009-10 posted the best win percentage among the 11 conferences that make up the NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision. The Mountain West claimed the Bowl Challenge Cup after sending five teams into postseason action and finishing with a 4-1 (.800) mark. The Bowl Challenge Cup was created by ESPN in 2002 as a competition among the conferences in the FBS during the college bowl season. In order to win the trophy, a conference must have the highest win percentage with a minimum of three teams from that conference participating in the postseason. The Mountain West earned its first Bowl Challenge Cup after registering a 2-1 record in bowl competition during the 2004-05 season. The MWC also won the Cup in 2007-08 with a 4-1 mark and is the only conference to win the trophy three times since the award’s inception. Over the past six seasons, the MWC owns the best winning percentage in bowl games among the 11 conferences with an 18-8 mark (.692). The SEC is second with a 31-17 (.646) record, followed by the Big East at 19-12 (.613) and the Pac-10 at 20-14 (.588).

SAM BOYD STADIUM

Standing as one of the top college football facilities in all the West is UNLV’s versatile venue Sam Boyd Stadium. Undergoing a complete facelift and renovation during 1999, Sam Boyd expanded to its present capacity of 36,800 (with the ability to seat more than 40,000 when called for). Located approximately seven miles from both the UNLV campus and McCarran International Airport, Sam Boyd Stadium successfully combines the excitement of a college football stadium and the versatility of an entertainment arena. The Rebel football team has posted a 133-102-3 record in 38-plus seasons playing there, including in front of a record three sellout crowds in 2007. SBS marked its 25th anniversary in 1996 by hosting the state’s thenlargest-ever sporting crowd on Sept. 14 when 41,091 fans witnessed UNLV take on Wisconsin. That total was surpassed just three months later when 41,238 saw BYU get past Wyoming in the first WAC Championship game. That record was re-written once more when 42,075 fans saw the Badgers return to face the Rebels on Aug. 31, 2002. The 2006 Las Vegas Bowl ultimately upped the record to 44,615 in a game between BYU and Oregon. The stadium has hosted some of the greatest talents in sports and show business. Future NFL quarterbacks Randall Cunningham, Jim McMahon, Drew Bledsoe, Andre Ware, Alex Smith, John Beck and Colt Brennan are among those who have played at Sam Boyd Stadium along with events involving athletes such as soccer legend Pele and motor sports stars. Additionally, the stadium has hosted world-class concerts by such musical acts as the Dave Matthews Band, the Eagles, U2, Paul McCartney, Wayne Newton, and the once-annual summer appearances by the Grateful Dead. A mecca for football played on all levels, the stadium is currently site of the MAACO Bowl Las Vegas each December, including five consecutive sold-out crowds, after serving as home to three Western Athletic Conference championship games from 1996-98. The facility has served as host to professional football three times: the United Football League’s Las Vegas

Locomotives, who debuted in 2009; the Las Vegas Outlaws of the XFL made it their home in 2001; and the Las Vegas Posse, a Canadian Football League franchise, played one season in 1994. SBS also hosts high school games and has been site of the state’s prep championship. The venue also hosted two other college football events: the Silver Dollar Classic, which featured two teams from historically black universities, and the Las Vegas All-American Classic postseason all-star game from 2003-05. Originally named Las Vegas Stadium when it was built in 1971 at a cost of $3.5 million, the facility was re-named the Las Vegas Silver Bowl in 1978 and then known as the Sam Boyd Silver Bowl in honor of local gaming pioneer Sam Boyd beginning in 1984. Its name was officially shortened to Sam Boyd Stadium in April 1994. The first event held in the then-15,000-seat stadium was a UNLV football game against Weber State on Oct. 23, 1971, won by the visiting Wildcats, 30-17. Official dedication ceremonies, however, took place the next season on Sept. 9, 1972, at halftime of a 35-28 loss to Western Illinois before 8,800 fans. SBS, which has always retained its horseshoe shape, underwent an expansion to 32,000 seats in 1978 and again enjoyed improvements in 1994. The Rebel Experience area outside the stadium opened in 1997. One of the highlights of the most recent renovation was the replacement of the so-called “Magic Carpet” retractable artificial turf that had been in place since 1985. Originally fitted with traditional AstroTurf, Sam Boyd was the first stadium in the world to install a Monsanto Corp. outdoor retractable turf, which helped give the facility its multi-purpose capability. The surface, which simply rolled up into cylinders in less than an hour, was installed at a cost of $1.2 million in part through a grant by the Sam Boyd family. Natural grass replaced the artificial turf from 1999-2002 before a synthetic surface, made by TurfTech, was installed in time for the 2003 season.

REBEL GAMEDAY

UNLV CHEERLEADERS & DANCE TEAM

Two of the nation’s best-known spirit squads, the UNLV Cheerleaders and the UNLV Dance Team (Rebel Girls) are fixtures at all Rebel football games. The teams perform at various UNLV athletic events and volunteer their time to appear at various events throughout the Las Vegas community. The Cheer & Dance Teams also devote time to instructing the UNLV Rebel Starzz – a group of young dancers ages 3-16 that performs at games each fall.

THE REBEL EXPERIENCE

Premiering at Sam Boyd Stadium in 1997 was the Rebel Experience. Situated in the northwest parking lot, the 64,000-square-foot-area is predominantly grass and includes six 30x60foot cement pads that can be reserved for large gatherings and corporate outings. UNLV FIGHT SONG

“WIN WITH THE REBELS” Win with the Rebels a victory today! Win with the Rebels, the Scarlet and Gray. From mountains that surround you to far across the sea. We’ll win with the Rebels of UNLV. U-N-L-V UNLV Go, Fight, Win. We’ll win with the Rebels of UNLV.

THE STAR OF NEVADA MARCHING BAND

Numbering more than 100 strong, the Star of Nevada Marching Band, which began in its present form in 1978, is a big part of Rebel Football Gameday. Whether it’s pumping up the crowds at the Rebel Experience or entertaining fans at halftime, home Saturdays at Sam Boyd Stadium would not be the same without strains of “Win with the Rebels” peppering the autumn air. Directed by Tony LaBounty, the UNLV band is announced by Dr. Harvey Allen who in 2010 goes into his 32nd season as the voice of the Star of Nevada Marching Band. UNLV ALMA MATER

Alma Mater, we praise you For spirit, the eternal flame, Strength which never falters, A tribute to your name Alma Mater, we thank you, Exalted Scarlet and Gray. Truth and wisdom from your standard In our minds and hearts will stay Alma Mater, we cherish you. And in our days that are yet to be, Our voices let us ever raise In honor, U-N-L-V.

THE FREMONT CANNON Trophy Helps Illustrate Importance of State Rivalry

Not simply a traveling trophy for the winner of the UNLV vs. Nevada, Reno game, the Fremont Cannon is ever-present at the now-annual Battle for Nevada. The tradition of awarding the cannon to the victors started four decades ago when the Rebels’ first football coach, Bill Ireland, felt the young rivalry between the north and south schools could use a symbolic trophy to stimulate interest. The prize turned out to be a replica of the howitzer used by John C. Fremont, one of America’s foremost trailblazers, as he headed west into Nevada in 1843. Legend has it that Fremont violated U.S. War Department rules by taking the cannon with him on his westward trek without permission and then abandoned the weapon in a SierraNevada snowdrift. Built by the Kennecott Copper Corp., Nevada Mines Division, the cannon was originally valued at more than $10,000 and is considered one of the best, and loudest, symbols of rivalry in college football. The Fremont is one of only two cannon prizes in all rivalry games, along with Illinois vs. Purdue. The Wolf Pack held the cannon first because they had beaten the Rebels 30-28 in the initial game of the series on Thanksgiving Day 1969. UNLV promptly won rights to the big gun in 1970 with a 42-30 home win and went on to dominate the series with eight wins in the next 11 games played. After UNR rebounded to win five straight games (1989-1993), UNLV regained the cannon in its Silver Anniversary Year in 1994. Last year’s UNR win put the Wolf Pack ahead 20-15 in the series, which has been continuous since 1987. The teams will meet in Las Vegas on Oct. 2, 2010, to once again decide who gets to keep the cannon.

A familiar sound to UNLV fans of all ages, Dick Calvert, the “Voice of the Rebels,” begins his fifth decade as the game announcer for UNLV Athletics. Calvert, who calls UNLV football, basketball, men’s & women’s soccer, baseball games and other events at Sam Boyd Stadium, Thomas & Mack Center, Cox Pavilion, Peter Johann Memorial Field, and Earl E. Wilson Stadium, has also served as the game announcer of the MWC basketball tournament, the Las Vegas Bowl and the NBA Vegas Summer League. Additionally, the longtime university staffer, works many MWC Championships hosted by UNLV and is the official starter for a number of university and NCAA golf tournaments. Calvert annually works over 100 local events. He was inducted into the Southern Nevada Sports Hall of Fame in June 2010. The former play-by-play broadcaster is also one of the most experienced commentators of American professional soccer, having served 18 seasons in both the North American and Major Soccer leagues. The Las Vegas resident retired from broadcasting and the UNLV Athletics Department after serving as the director of broadcasting, director of athletic marketing for Olympic sports and director of athletic facilities/operations. Calvert and his wife Anne have four adult children and are the proud grandparents of 10.

HEY REB

Embodying the Rebel spirit of the University he promotes, UNLV’s Hey Reb made his debut in 1983 and received a makeover in 1997. Named one of 12 All-American Mascots, he competed for the title of 2004 Capital One Mascot of the Year and made a strong showing by coming in second in online voting. No stranger to national television, however, Hey Reb also appeared in two memorable ESPN SportsCenter commercials.

REBEL HISTORY pened as a satellite campus in 1957, the southern regional division of the University of Nevada became Nevada Southern University in 1965 and finally evolved into University of Nevada, Las Vegas four years later when the Board of Regents granted it autonomy under the state’s higher education system. Men’s basketball was the first sport organized at UNLV, opening play in 1958 under head coach and athletic director Michael “Chub” Drakulich. Baseball, also coached by Drakulich, started in 1960 and football came to campus nearly a decade later when head coach Bill Ireland’s squad went 8-1 in 1968. Women’s club sports such as tennis emerged in 1960 under administrator Alice Mason but basketball became the first women’s varsity sport in 1974. UNLV currently sponsors seven men’s and 10 women’s athletic programs.

NICKNAME

The nickname “Rebels” was given to UNLV athletic teams because the school, emerging from the shadow of the University of Nevada, Reno, in effect “rebelled” against its bigger and older brother to the north. The name “Runnin’ Rebels” (always spelled without a ‘g’) was coined in 1974 by then-sports information director Dominic Clark but refers only to the UNLV men’s basketball team.

COLORS

The school colors of Scarlet and Gray can be traced to the late1950s when UNLV adopted as mascot a wolf wearing a Confederate uniform. Scarlet and Gray were traditional colors of the Confederacy with its gray uniforms and red-based flag.

MASCOT

Today it’s Hey Reb but some at UNLV still remember the first official Rebel mascot — Beauregard. Dressed in a gray military field jacket and Confederate cap, Beau is a fanged, winking, black and white cartoon wolf. He came to be because the new school in Southern Nevada wanted to take a little jab at the Wolf Pack mascot of Nevada, Reno. “UNLV was rebelling against the status quo and the two schools’ mascots seemed to mimic the Civil War,” said former UNLV president, the late, Don Baepler, who later directed the Marjorie Barrick Museum of Natural

History on campus. “Reno had a northern looking wolf so we wanted a Confederate wolf.” The logo lasted until the early 1970s when a group of black athletes came to Baepler, who was academic vice president at the time, and voiced its displeasure with having a mascot that had a connection with the wrong side of the Civil War. “They said it didn’t feel right playing for a school with such a mascot...and I agreed,” said Baepler. “Southern Nevada has no real ties to the Confederacy so the change wasn’t a big concern.” The student senate voted on a new mascot and the human Rebel logo was born. Initially, a Colonial-like Rebel soldier was the official logo and there was talk at one time of changing UNLV’s nickname to Minutemen. Essentially there was no recognized UNLV mascot for about a half-decade spilling into the early 1980s. Enter Mike Miller, the award-winning local graphic artist who eventually became the creator of the cartoon man with a long moustache known as Hey Reb. Miller said his inspiration for the logo was historical Nevada frontiersmen from the 1800s such as John C. Fremont and Kit Carson. “The character is supposed to be a trailblazer of the old West,” said Miller. “I just sketched out a little mountain man with a long coat that had some fringe on it.” Despite the new Rebel eventually being displayed as having striking white hair on his head and face, Miller said Hey Reb was never supposed to be an old man and put his intended age at around 30 years old. As for the unusual name of the new character, there was no campus contest or high-priced marketing focus group involved. “I just wrote Hey Reb on the back of his coat on one of the many variations I gave them,” he said. “I was hoping it would be a good slogan – a yell-out cheer at games – but it never really caught on.” The mascot, however, did catch on in a big way as UNLV vaulted to the top in college apparel licensing within the decade. In 1997, a more muscular version of Hey Reb, minus a musket, was introduced and a refreshed version was developed in 2006. Beauregard may not be prevalent in today’s UNLV athletic events, but he’s certainly not gone and forgotten. The original sketch of the wolf was converted into a mid-court painting for basketball games played in the old University gymnasium. Today, visitors can visit the black, white, scarlet and gray logo circle in its original position at what is now the Barrick Museum, which still uses the existing oak hardwood basketball floor to hold its exhibits.

HAUCK ERA WELL UNDERWAY AT UNLV THE BELL BOYS

UNLV Football has been a real family affair for Joanne Wilson of Tustin, CA, who sent all three of her sons to play for the Rebels over the past decade. The eldest, linebacker Zach Bell, played for John Robinson from 2001-04 and as a senior lined up on the same defense as fellow-LB Beau Bell, who would go on to a Mountain West Conference Defensive MVP campaign in 2007 before becoming a fourth-round NFL Draft pick by the Cleveland Browns. Little brother, B.J. Bell, went to Santa Ana College out of high school but the 2008 J.C. Gridwire First Team All-American also joined the Rebels last fall to play defensive end and ring up another Bell in the Scarlet & Gray. After qualifying for a medical redshirt season, B.J. will be a junior in 2010.

PAYNE’S BACK

After just two seasons, UNLV junior WR Phillip Payne has compiled 14 receiving touchdowns. The Las Vegas native needs just three more to move into the top five at the school and just 10 more over his Rebel career would tie him with all-time record-holder Henry Bailey (24 from 1991-94). Payne’s freshman mark of seven was just one shy of the school’s rookie record and also the MWC mark of eight by BYU’s Austin Collie in 2004. Payne had at least one score in his first five career games, which tied the school record for most consecutive games with a TD catch (Sam “Disco Kid” Greene 1980). With the departure of UNLV’s all-time leading receiver Ryan Wolfe, Payne, who had 29 grabs as a freshman and 58 as a sophomore, will be looked upon to step into an even bigger role in 2010.

SILVER STATE SIGNINGS=RECRUITING GOLD?

B.J.

While Bobby Hauck’s first recruiting class at UNLV included studentathletes whose hometowns were spread among five states and two countries, a school-record eight signees from the Las Vegas area highlighted February’s haul for the new head coach. The impressive total of locals shattered the UNLV record of five, which was set four times, including 2009. “There’s good football in the state of Nevada, and especially Las Vegas,” Hauck said. “One of the things I said we were going to do when I took this job was try to recruit every Nevada kid that could help us win a Mountain West championship. There’s no set number of locals we’ll take each year but we’re going to evaluate them and try to get everyone we feel can fulfill that role.”

REBELATIONS...

Saldi’s preseason camp locker

SALDI STAYS WITH REBELS

He may not be on the playing field but UNLV’s Bryce Saldi is always on the minds of his Rebel teammates. The junior linebacker, who remains on UNLV’s official roster, continues to improve from a serious brain injury suffered during a skateboarding accident on July 3, 2009. Saldi, a graduate of Texas prep powerhouse Southlake Carroll High School, earned his first UNLV letter in 2008 by playing in all 12 games, primarily on special teams. The son of former Dallas Cowboys tight end Jay Saldi was on vacation in Southern California at the time of the accident and was at Loma Linda University Medical Center for nearly two months. While Bryce was transported to Baylor Hosptial in Dallas just before UNLV’s season opener and is now at a rehab and care facility in nearby Plano, Saldi’s Rebel locker is still active, as No. 54’s playing gear is put out before every game, and even while the team dressed in an armory at its off-campus training site in August. UNLV Director of Equipment Paul Pucciarelli reports that Saldi’s locker was decked out as usual at every game -- home and away -- in 2009 as the program supports its missing player’s recovery. Updates are available through the Caring Bridge website at the following link: http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/Brycesaldi/guestbook

For the first time in school history the UNLV football team will play 13 regular-season games in 2010. The expanded schedule is allowed per NCAA rules whenever schools play at Hawaii. The Rebels have played 13 games just three times before but all of those campaigns included either a postseason NCAA playoff game (1974) or bowl appearance (1984 and 2000) … No less than nine of UNLV’s 13 opponents in 2010 played in a bowl game last season, which is a school record … UNLV will make a rare cross-country trip for a first-ever meeting with traditional power West Virginia on Oct. 9. The game will also mark the first time the Rebels will play a team from the Big East Conference. UNLV last played in the Eastern Time Zone on Sept. 5, 2004, at Tennessee, and has not traveled so far east since playing at Miami in 1972 … Junior quarterback Mike Clausen was second on the team with seven rushing touchdowns last fall and he now stands fifth in UNLV history for TD rushes by a QB with nine. Just two more would put him third behind Jason Thomas’ 24 and Glenn Carano’s 20 … The Rebels return their top four rushers from the 2009 season: RB Channing Trotter (541 yards), QB Clausen (288), QB Omar Clayton (238) and RB C.J. Cox (173) … Returning quarterbacks Clayton and Clausen helped UNLV compile a 59.5 passing completion percentage in 2009, which ranked second in school history for a single season behind only the 62.0 mark posted in 1984 … When OL Joe Hawley was selected in the fourth round by the Atlanta Falcons on April 24, it marked the fourth consecutive year that at least one UNLV player was taken in the NFL Draft, which is the longest streak for the program since an eight-year string in 1975-82 when the draft had significantly more rounds … Four members of UNLV’s all-new coaching staff do have roots in the Mountain West Conference. Passing defense coordinator/DBs coach J.D. Williams, who was the 16th overall pick in the 1994 NFL Draft out of Fresno State, spent last season coaching at Utah; offensive coordinator Rob Phenicie was at Wyoming from 2000-02; OL coach Chad Germer worked on the Cowboys’ staff from 2003-08; and TE coach Brent Myers was with the Utes in 2003.

“THE O.C. – A SEQUEL”

CLAYTON CONTINUES CLIMBING CHARTS

If senior Omar Clayton takes the first snap of the season vs. Wisconsin on Sept. 4, he will become only the third UNLV quarterback to start three consecutive seasonopeners, joining Jason Thomas (2000-02) and Glenn Carano (1974-76). Clayton sits sixth in UNLV history with 4,742 yards passing and needs 256 to pass Thomas in fifth place and only 652 yards to pass Sam King in third place. Randall Cunningham sits atop the all-time list with 8,020 from 1982-84. Clayton goes into his final season as the school’s all-time leader in passing percentage at .598 (406-679) and ranks second in lowest interception percentage (.0031), just a few points behind Cunningham’s .0291. Clayton already holds the Rebel record for consecutive pass attempts without an interception with 173 set in 2007-08. 35

ew UNLV head coach Bobby Hauck isn’t one to delve into individual strengths and weaknesses of his Rebel players or spend much time predicting what will happen in 2010. Credit that close-to-the-coaching-vest style more to Hauck’s deep-rooted team-first philosophy than his relative unfamiliarity with a roster he inherited back in December. Consider that the Montana born and bred son (and brother) of a football coach didn’t dazzle Rebel Nation with promises of quick turnarounds or Strip-worthy offensive fireworks when he agreed to become the 10th head man in school history or when he announced his first recruiting class six weeks later. Hauck is simply about getting down to business -- and that’s exactly what he and his handpicked staff did during off-season conditioning, 15 spring practices and overhauling preparation schedules for their first autumn wearing the Scarlet & Gray. “I like the improvement our team made in the spring,” says the winningest coach in Big Sky Conference history. “We had great enthusiasm and effort. Our players want to put in the time and the work to become a good football team. However, we’ve got a long way to go for this team to be competitive in the Mountain West Conference. It’s going to take a lot more work.” Hauck released a post-spring depth chart but attached an important caveat: “No job is safe now – or ever, really.” “It doesn’t matter what position you’re talking about,” he says. “Whoever played the best in the spring will be No. 1 going into fall camp and that’s where it sits until we get back together. It will be interesting. I hope all of the freshmen come in ready to compete at every position.”

THE OFFENSE

Clausen (6-2, 220, JR-2L; 463 yards, 4 TD), who has started four games and run for nine touchdowns, has also been accurate in his two seasons, completing 59-percent of his pass attempts. Herring (6-3, 180, FR-RS) is the tallest of the group and showed off an impressive arm while leading the scout team in 2009. Hauck also added a signal caller in his first recruiting class as big Texan Taylor Barnhill (6-4, 215, FR-HS) suits up this autumn.

Taking over a program that featured a purely spread formation during the previous half-decade, Hauck and offensive coordinator Rob Phenicie are not trying to tear down everything in place but instead move to multiple looks to merge their preferred vision of attack with existing manpower. “We’ll be fairly multiple on both sides of the ball,” says Hauck. “We’re going to get our guys in the best position. If we have to adapt what we’re doing to best suit our talent, we’ll do that. You may see a lot of spread principles in our offense because that’s what the strength of our personnel is. “We still have a lot of question marks in terms of our depth coming out of spring. I take that as a positive because we’ve had great competition for playing time, which has helped us to improve. The basics of our offense have been implemented and we’re looking forward to expanding the offensive package in the fall.”

HAUCK SAYS: “The quarterback position has been highly competitive and I anticipate it will continue to be in the preseason and during the season. We’re not anywhere near naming a starter. There was not enough separation this spring to make that call. I would ideally like to have one named in time for game week. Every position is up for grabs every week, especially the quarterback position. It’s the most visible position but we don’t treat that area any different than any other position.”

QUARTERBACKS

Not many brand new coaching staffs are blessed with three legitimate leftover candidates to start at the quarterback position. For the Rebels in 2010, one is a returning starter (Omar Clayton), the second is a vastly experienced lefty option (Mike Clausen) and the third is a highly touted redshirt prospect (Caleb Herring). Clayton (6-1, 205, SR-3L; 2,230 yards, 13 TD in 2009) left spring ball the same way he entered it – as No. 1 on the depth chart. However, Hauck stresses that all three signal callers remain in the mix. Clayton, the former walk-on from Illinois who has started 23 games as a Rebel, is already sixth on the UNLV career passing yardage list with 4,742 and will head into his final campaign boasting the best completion percentage in school history (60.1).

HAUCK

TIGHT ENDS

Hauck’s offenses have traditionally made good use of the tight end position – very much the opposite of recent Rebel teams. Hence, the only junior-college signee in the new staff’s haul was Anthony Vidal (6-5, 250, JR-TR), who should offer immediate help. Junior Austin Harrington (6-4, 235, JR-1L; 2-9), a converted defensive end who got two receptions in ’09, and former JC receiver Kyle Watkins (6-2, 240, JR-1L; 3-24) lead the holdovers.

RUNNING BACKS

Nearly everyone who contributed rushing yards in 2009 is back in Las Vegas this fall (1,291 of 1,522 yards return, to be exact, which includes totals posted by QBs and WRs). Nicely built junior C.J. Cox (5-11, 205, JR-2L; 173 yards, 1 TD) will head into camp atop the depth chart after turning in a solid spring for the new staff. After redshirting his first year on campus, Bradley Randle (5-7, 195, FR-RS) hopes to convert his exciting bursts displayed in practice to game situations. Returning leader Channing Trotter (5-9, 200, SR-3L; 541 yards, 9 TDs) started all 12 games as a junior but came out of the spring third on the depth chart. Boasting a high motor, Trotter became the first Rebel in seven years to have three TDs on the ground en route to a 102-yard effort vs. Sacramento State in last year’s opener. Two more runners could compete as the Rebels signed both Tim Cornett (6-0, 195, FR-HS) out of Texas and Dionza Bradford (6-0, 200, FR-HS) from California. Former linebacker David Blair (6-1, 240, SO-1L) moved over to fullback during spring and will look to kick-start his collegiate career on offense. HAUCK SAYS: “There is a lot of competition already and a couple of young players coming in as part of our freshman class that could compete for playing time. The key issue for our running backs is ball security. We must take care of the football.”

WIDE RECEIVERS

Rarely has a bigger hole been left in the UNLV lineup by the departure of a single player than the gaping space formed by the graduation of Ryan Wolfe. The school and conference all-time leading receiver, Wolfe climbed to as high as 12th in college football history with 283 catches. Now a free-agent signee of the Atlanta Falcons, Wolfe was a three-time first team all-conference performer whose work ethic on and off the field will also be missed. Part-time starters Jerriman Robinson and Rodelin Anthony also exited but top scoring threat Phillip Payne (6-3, 205, JR-2L; 58 receptions-661 yards in 2009) is back with his 14 career TDs and well-documented knack for hauling in fade passes. Playmaker Michael Johnson (5-8, 175, JR-2L; 43-484) could have an even bigger impact in his third season while Mark Barefield (6-0, 195, SO-1L; 3-26) is the third man listed as a starter after spring. Expected to challenge for time are a pair of grayshirts -- local product Marcus Sullivan (5-9, 180, FR-HS) and super-speedy Irshad Stolden (5-9, 155, FR-HS) – as well as nice-sized redshirt Brandon Babineaux (6-3, 200, FR-RS). Also look for signee Kurt Davis (6-5, 190, FR-HS) to become a rotation possibility after hitting town.

OFFENSIVE LINEMEN

Plenty of experience here with four returning starters lining up along the line (although the one player missing is fourth round NFL Draft pick Joe Hawley). The tackles both have senior leaders in place as Matt Murphy (6-4, 300, SR-3L) looks to start on the left side for the fourth straight season and big Evan Marchal (6-7, 320, SR-3L) figures to man the right side. Shane Watterson (6-4, 290, SO-1L) and Yusef Rodgers (6-2, 250, SO-1L) are the leading backups after spring.

PAYNE

HAUCK SAYS: “Our receivers need to do a much better job in the run game. Everyone wants to catch the ball but our receiving corps needs to show they want to do the blue-collar work that is needed in the run game.”

MURPHY

Jason Heath (6-3, 280, SO-1L) started nine games at left guard after promising freshman Sean Tesoro (6-1, 310, SO-1L) went down with a season-ending injury. Tesoro earned a medical redshirt but will have to catch up after not being completely cleared for action until after spring ball wrapped. Doug Zismann (6-2, 295, SO-1L) is listed No. 1 at right guard while Thomas Wren (6-6, 290, JR-SQ) and Daniel Kaanana (6-5, 275, FR-RS) will look to earn their first letter as a Rebel this fall. The head coach told interviewers that returning senior starting center John Gianninoto (6-4, 295, SR-3L) had the most impressive spring on his side of the ball while Andrew Mack (6-2, 275, SO-1L) is also available.

MARCHAL

HAUCK SAYS: “Gio had a great spring. He picked up all the calls and did a really nice job of running the offensive line. For us it’s important for the center to do that. Our offensive line needs to be a strength for our football team. We have several veteran players who need to be the core of that group.”

Las Vegas grayshirt Nate Holloway (6-3, 350, FR-HS) and Isaiah Shivers (6-1, 285, FR-RS) will also vie for time inside.

THE DEFENSE Continuing to work out of the 4-3 base, defensive coordinator Kraig Paulson will have seven returning starters to work with but continue looking for playmakers across the board to help jumpstart a unit that ranked 115th in the nation in total defense last season. “On the defensive side of the ball we must make improvement,” Hauck says. “Each individual must take care of his responsibility so that we can play well as a unit. Progress was made in that direction this spring.”

HAUCK SAYS: “We have a group of players that has a wide variety of individual strengths. We need to blend the use of those players to give us a functioning defensive line unit.”

LINEBACKERS

The linebacking corps welcomed a couple of additions this spring as the team’s leading tackler the last two seasons, Jason Beauchamp, tries his hand in the pros. At the weakside, Starr Fuimaono (6-0, 220, SR-3L; 67 TT, 4.5 TFL) and Nate Carter (6-1, 235, JR-2L) are toeto-toe heading into fall. Ronnie Paulo (6-2, 235, SR-3L; 59 TT, 3.5 TFL) looks to become a three-year starter at the middle position and former safety Calvin Randleman (6-0, 200, SR-1L) is vying for the strongside job. Other candidates include Beau Orth (6-1, 215, JR-2L; 21 TT), Travis Trickey (6-2, 230, SO-1L), and another transplanted safety, Chris Jones (6-2, 185, JR-2L).

DEFENSIVE LINEMEN

Coaches are hoping to pump some life into the Rebel pass rush, which produced only 15 QB sacks in 2009. Still-learning Samoan Daniel Mareko (6-3, 245, SR-1L) and former Washington State transfer Preston Brooks (6-3, 280, SR-2L) are listed at the top end spots after spring practice. James Dunlap (6-1, 260, JR-1L) and Beau Brence (6-3, 245, SO-1L) offer experience here while former JC All-American B.J. Bell (6-2, 260, JR-RS), who was limited in spring while recovering from shoulder surgery, hopes to finally get in the mix after missing most of last year. The interior is led by another Samoan, senior Isaako Aaitui (6-4, 315, SR-3L; 31 TT, 2.5 TFL), whom Hauck mentioned as having the best spring among the defense, while Ramsey Feagai (6-2, 350, SR-3L; 10 TT) is the other top tackle heading into fall.

HAUCK SAYS: “The linebackers as a group made progress in the spring. We need to continue to develop both our depth and play-making ability there.

DEFENSIVE BACKS

THE SPECIAL TEAMS

UNLV’s leading returning tackler, Quinton Pointer (5-10, 185, SR3L; 72 TT, 4.5 TFL) is back to lead the cornerback contingent on the right side. Will Chandler (5-11, 185, JR-2L) turned in a strong enough spring to top the left side after spending last season working special teams. Deante’ Purvis (5-11, 195, JR-2L; 20 TT) and grayshirt Sidney Hodge (5-8, 175, FR-HS) will also compete to start. Alex De Giacomo (6-1, 185, SR-1L; 60 TT) is a returning starter at one of the safety positions while another former JC transfer, Mike Grant (5-10, 185, SR1L), is listed on top after getting his feet wet in ’09. POINTER Formerly UNLV’s starting quarterback, Travis Dixon (6-0, 180, SR-3L; 36 TT) started seven games at safety as a junior while a pair of redshirts, John Therrell (6-2, 175, FR-RS) and Courtney Bridget (6-3, 180, FR-RS) will be involved.

For the first time in a long time, the Rebels will have a primary special teams coordinator and he happens to go by the name of Hauck as the head man continues the duties he also had with the Griz. The graduation of Kyle Watson, who didn’t miss an extra point during his UNLV career and also proved to be a more than serviceable punter last season, opens a couple of holes in the lineup. Senior Las Vegas product Ben Jaekle (6-1, 175, SR-3L) has plenty of kicking experience, having made 7-15 career field goal attempts, while Brendon Lamers (5-11, 190, SR-2L) is the only one on the roster who has punted for the Rebels (exactly four times in 2008). Expected to challenge for one or more of the jobs is local booter Nolan Kohorst (6-0, 165, FR-HS) out of Green Valley High School. Michael Johnson (3 returns for 19 yards) and Mike Grant (2-20) are two of the punt return candidates with experience and will be joined by rookie Marcus Sullivan and perhaps an incoming freshman or two. Johnson and Sullivan also return kickoffs as does Deante’ Purvis, who last year broke the MWC record for most returns (50) and yards (1,165) in a season, including a 94-yard touchdown against BYU that broke a decade-long drought for the Rebels in that category. HAUCK SAYS: “Who is manning the specialist positions is very up in the air right now. I would expect Kohorst to come in and compete at both punter and kicker. Certainly we didn’t recruit him to do anything other than come in here and compete to win those jobs while the guys here will try hard to keep them. That will be a good competition in the fall.”

HAUCK SAYS: “The secondary is fairly skilled. We need to start working together as a unit and continue to become better at tackling.”

THE SCHEDULE For the first time in school history the UNLV football team will play 13 regular-season games, setting a daunting record of nine vs. opponents coming off bowl games. Five of the nine bowl teams will be coming to face the Rebels at Sam Boyd Stadium, starting with an alwayspopular visit from Big Ten Conference power Wisconsin to kick things off Sept. 4. It will mark the ninth all-time meeting between the intersectional schools and Wisconsin leads the series 6-2. The three largest home crowds in school history all came vs. the Badgers, including UW’s most-recent game here in 2007. UNLV will open its 12th season of MWC play the following Saturday with a trip to Utah. The Rebels stay on the road for their first visit to face Idaho in Moscow since 1977 in what completes a two-game series that began with the Vandals coming to Las Vegas in 2005. Hauck will coach his first MWC home game on Sept. 25 against New Mexico before his team plays a pair of nonconference contests. The 36th Battle for the Fremont Cannon will be waged in Las Vegas when Nevada, Reno hits town on Oct. 2. One week later, UNLV will make a rare cross-country trip for a first-ever meeting with traditional power West Virginia on Oct. 9. The game will also mark the first time the Rebels will play a team from the Big East Conference. UNLV last played in the Eastern Time Zone on Sept. 5, 2004, at Tennessee. After a trip to Colorado State on Oct. 16, the Rebels will enjoy their lone off-week of the extended season on Oct. 23. Defending MWC champion TCU comes to the desert Oct. 30 before UNLV heads to BYU on Nov. 6. Wyoming will play at Sam Boyd on Nov. 13, and then just five days later the Rebels close their home schedule vs. Air Force on Thursday, Nov. 18. It will mark the first non-Saturday game for UNLV since 2008. The MWC slate ends with a Thanksgiving weekend trip to San Diego State on Nov. 27 and then Hauck’s team closes the regular season with the trip to Hawaii on Dec. 4. HAUCK SAYS: “The schedule has a nice mix of home and away games throughout the season. Both the non-conference and the Mountain West Conference schedules should be exciting. Having the bye week right in the middle of the season can also be a positive.”

To be the best you must beat the best

It’s all about competing and winning. Over the past six seasons, the Mountain West Conference owns the best win percentage in bowl games with an 18-8 mark. Breaking new ground and striving to be the best, that’s why the Mountain West Conference and our member institutions continue to be “Above The Rest”

WHAT THEY ARE SAYING ABOUT BOBBY HAUCK... Tennessee Titans Head Coach Jeff Fisher: “My son played for Bobby at Montana and we have been nothing but impressed. He produces great players and successful young men. He has tremendous leadership and organizational skills. At UNLV he’ll have a great staff, he’ll recruit well and he’ll win football games.”

UNLV Director of Athletics Jim Livengood:

Former UNLV All-American and NFL QB Randall Cunningham:

Montana All-American and Tennessee Titans Receiver Marc Mariana:

“How can you not be excited about him? He’s a winner and he’s going to do great things for the program and university.”

Legendary Sports Broadcaster Brent Musburger:

“Bobby Hauck is a perfect fit for UNLV. Besides growing up in a football family, Hauck is a tireless recruiter. Montana will miss him but he left behind great memories.”

Former UCLA Head Football Coach Terry Donahue:

“UNLV is fortunate to get a proven coaching commodity such as Bobby Hauck. He has a great football background and is already a successful head coach and recruiter. He will be a tremendous fit and represent the university well.”

“It’s my belief that Bobby Hauck is one of the great young coaches in America today. His ability to direct a program, his history of success in recruiting and his love for the game of football clearly project him as having an exciting future here at UNLV.”

“I have so much respect for Coach Hauck and the way he runs a program. What he expects from you correlates not only to football, but to life in general. I am a better person, both on and off the field, because of Coach Hauck.”

St. Johns Head Basketball Coach and former UCLA co-worker Steve Lavin:

“Bobby Hauck comes with an excellent football pedigree and possesses all of the vital attributes that it will take to build the Rebel football program. He is a high-energy guy who is a relentless recruiter, a great motivator and a strong family man. He’s also an authentic person who has a way with people in the community and I have no doubt that he will succeed at UNLV.”

HAUCK

Bobby Hauck, the winningest man in Division-I FCS, was hired as the 10th head coach in Rebel football history on Dec. 23, 2009, and immediately charged with spreading an attitude of success and discipline throughout a program thirsting for prosperity. Hauck (pronounced HOWK) spent the previous seven seasons as the record-setting head coach of the University of Montana where he compiled an overall record of 80-17, including leading the Grizzlies to three national championship games in the NCAA’s Football Championship Subdivision (formerly I-AA). The winningest coach in Big Sky Conference history (both in average victories per year and overall titles), Hauck earned at least a share of the league’s crown all seven years at Montana en route to compiling a record of 47-6. The recent numbers are even more impressive as his records over the last four seasons were 51-6 overall and 31-1 in conference play. “Bobby brings a tremendous record of success to UNLV, and we are pleased to welcome him to the University,” UNLV President Neal Smatresk said while introducing his new coach to a packed campus gathering. “He has the skill and drive to revitalize our football program and deliver a new level of excitement to Rebel Football.” Hauck, 46, was named Big Sky Coach of the Year in 2006, 2007 and 2009 and AFCA Regional FCS Coach of the Year in 2006 and 2009. A veteran of eight bowl games, he also brought with him tremendous experience from stints coaching in both the Pacific-10 and Big 12 conferences. “I’m excited to be here and believe UNLV is a tremendous opportunity for me and my family,” Hauck said. “We’re looking forward to building on the foundation put in place here and our first order of business is to get excitement building within our team and within the entire community.” Step 1 in the plan to earn Las Vegas’ attention was carried out just over a month later when Hauck announced a recruiting class

SIGNEE PROFILES 2010 UNLV SIGNING CLASS A school-record eight signees from the Las Vegas area highlighted UNLV football’s first class under new head coach Bobby Hauck as a list of 21 future Rebels was announced. The impressive total of locals broke the UNLV record of five, which was set four times, including just last year. “I think we did a nice job building a quality class on such short notice,” said Hauck, who was hired in late December. “There’s good football in the state of Nevada, and especially Las Vegas. One of the things I said we were going to do when I took this job was try to recruit every Nevada kid that could help us win a Mountain West championship. There’s no set number of locals we’ll take each year but we’re going to evaluate them and try to get everyone we feel can fulfill that role. One of the most rewarding things I’ve experienced since coming here is the great reception we’ve received around the city, state and region from coaches and prospects.” The group boasted 10 players who were assigned at least three stars by either Scout, Rivals or Scouts, Inc., which is the most on record for the program. In addition, no less than seven players were ranked among the nation’s top 100 at their respective positions by those same outlets. UNLV’s class consists of student-athletes whose hometowns are spread among five states and two countries: eight from Nevada, six from California, four from Texas, one each from Washington and Colorado and one late-signee from Saskatchewan, Canada. “I was pleasantly surprised at our success in the state of Texas. We took four high-quality players from down there and I’m excited about going back to Texas and recruiting in the future.” The recruits list, which does not include grayshirts that signed a year ago but joined the program in January 2010 as true freshmen, featured 20 high school players and just one junior-college player. The class of 2010 was evenly balanced with 10 offensive players and nine on defense, plus one special teams player and one listed as an athlete. The full breakdown is as follows: 4 DL, 4 OL, 3 DB, 2 LB, 2 RB, 2 TE, 1 QB, 1 WR and 1 PK/P and 1 ATH.

In Appreciation:

A REBEL STAR IN WOLFE’S CLOTHING

ide receiver Ryan Wolfe caught more passes than anyone in UNLV and Mountain West Conference history, played his senior season as a graduate student and unquestionably went down as one of the top student-athletes to ever wear the Scarlet & Gray. Lightly recruited out of Hart High School, the native of Santa Clarita, Calif., grayshirted before joining Mike Sanford’s program in 2006. Once on campus, however, Wolfe immediately showed his potential for greatness. The only freshman to ever lead the MWC in receiving yards with 911, he set a UNLV rookie record for yards in a game with 176 en route to being named conference freshman of the year. As a junior, he tied the school mark for catches in a season with 88 and became the first Rebel since 1994 to reach 1,000 yards receiving and was later named UNLV’s Sportsman of the Year. Last season, Wolfe joined twotime All-American safety Jamaal Brimmer (200204 in the MWC) and twotime All-American punter and quarterback Randall Cunningham (1982-84 in the PCAA) as the only Rebel football players to be named first team allleague three times in a career. Wolfe was also one of just six players in Mountain West history to accomplish the feat. In 2009, he led the MWC with 6.73 catches per game (17th nationally), had 74 grabs for 760 yards and also earned statistics as a rusher (41 net yards), a punt returner, and on defense (six tackles and one pass breakup). Wolfe’s two 100-yard receiving games as a senior pushed his school-record career total to 12. He also would have tied the school’s record for most games played in a career but a fluke foot injury suffered in practice kept him out of his collegiate finale. He rose as high as 12th on the all-time FBS receptions list but by not playing his final game and missing out on a bowl, he closed his career ranked 16th in NCAA history with 283 catches. Wolfe’s injury, which required surgery, kept him from playing in an all-star game and from running at the NFL Combine. However, the record-setting performer later signed a free-agent deal with the Atlanta Falcons.

LAS VEGAS – UNLV junior running back Channing Trotter made the most of his first career start, scoring three rushing touchdowns in leading UNLV to a 38-3 win over Sacramento State in the season opener at Sam Boyd Stadium. Trotter ran for 102 yards on 16 carries, and his trio of one-yard TD runs marked the first time that a Rebel scored three rushing touchdowns since QB Jason Thomas ran in three vs. Wyoming on Nov. 2, 2002. Trotter’s stellar performance was part of an efficient evening by the Rebels in front of 22,195 approving fans, who watched UNLV go a perfect 5-for-5 in the red zone, not commit a turnover and complete 17 of 21 passes. Trotter got UNLV on the board first, rumbling in from a yard out at the 10:43 mark of the first quarter. Less than five minutes later Kyle Watson drilled a 39-yard FG, pushing the lead to 10-0. But the Rebels wouldn’t score again in the first half and entered the locker room up 10-3 at the break following a 44-yard field goal by Sacramento State placekicker Chris Diniz. The second half would be all Rebels, with Trotter bowling his way in from a yard out in the third and fourth quarters, moving the UNLV lead to 24-3. The Rebel defense then created the game’s only turnover, as Hornet quarterback Jason Smith was picked off by defensive end Malo Taumua, who had actually dropped back into pass coverage and grabbed a deflected ball in the end zone. Following a 25-yard run by Trotter, UNLV junior quarterback Omar Clayton then hooked up with Rodelin Anthony down the right side for a 55-yard touchdown and a 31-3 lead. Sophomore quarterback Mike Clausen then capped the scoring with a four-yard TD run of his own with 1:06 left in the game, giving UNLV head coach Mike Sanford his fourth straight season-opening victory, the first head coach in program history to do so. Clayton finished the evening 13-of-17 for 213 yards and the long touchdown, which moved his streak of consecutive games with a TD pass to 10 games. The Rebel defense limited the Hornets to just 99 yards passing and 228 total yards, allowing just 12 first downs and no touchdowns. UNLV linebackers Starr Fuimaono and Ronnie Paulo each had 11 tackles, with Fuimaono added a quarterback sack, the only one on the night for the Rebels.

LAS VEGAS – No. 24 Oregon State’s 33-yard field goal with just seven seconds left on the clock averted a UNLV upset, as the Beavers escaped Sam Boyd Stadium with a hard-fought 23-21 victory on a warm Saturday night. Playing in front of 25,967 fans and a national television audience on CBS College Sports, the Rebels stormed back with two fourth-quarter touchdowns to take a 21-20 lead with 4:16 left in the game. But the Beavers responded with a 12-play drive that featured a controversial pass interference call on third-and-26 deep in their own territory, that allowed them to reach the 16-yard line and set up Justin Kahut for the game-winning kick. That capped a wild second half that saw the teams combine for five touchdowns after a defensive first half in which Oregon State grabbed an early 6-0 lead on a one-yard TD pass from Sean Canfield to Brady Camp. Beaver running back Jacquizz Rodgers got going in the third quarter, scoring on a two-yard run that gave his team a 13-0 lead after a drive that saw him rip a run down the right sideline for 45 yards. UNLV answered on its first drive of the second half, with Deante’ Purvis returning the kickoff 64 yards to the OSU 36-yard line, and four plays later the Rebels were in the end zone. UNLV starting QB Omar Clayton connected with Rodelin Anthony for a 19-yard score, cutting the Oregon State lead to 13-7 at the 10:38 mark of the third quarter. Rodgers got loose again on the following possession, picking up 47 yards for the longest rush of his career, and then Canfield later found James Rodgers for a four-yard TD, making the score 20-7. UNLV’s first possession of the fourth quarter saw a change at quarterback, with Mike Clausen subbing for an injured Clayton, who left the game with a sore knee. Clausen calmly led the Rebels down the field and made it a one-possession game with a 13-yard TD strike to Anthony, cutting the lead to 20-14. The Rebel defense then stood large at midfield, stopping the Beavers on fourth-and-one, giving the ball back to the UNLV offense at the 49. Clausen needed just six plays to put UNLV ahead for the first time in the game, rushing for 21 yards and going 2-for-3 on the drive, capping it with a 10-yard fade to Phillip Payne for a 21-20 lead. UNLV then appeared to be in great position to close out the upset when senior linebacker Jason Beauchamp sacked Canfield for a 10-yard loss and the Beavers faced third-and-26. The Rebels blitzed, and defensive back Terrance Lee hit Canfield as he threw, sending the ball into the air, but Purvis was called for pass interference on the play, and OSU had new life. Following the automatic first down, OSU methodically moved the ball down the field, with Canfield completing four consecutive passes to set up Kahut for the game winner. Anthony matched his career high with five receptions that went for 57 yards and two scores, while senior wideout Ryan Wolfe hauled in nine catches for a game-high 91 yards. UNLV linebacker Starr Fuimaono had a season-high 12 tackles, including one for a loss.

LAS VEGAS – UNLV quarterback Omar Clayton’s picture-perfect 15-yard fade to Phillip Payne with 36 seconds left lifted the Rebels to a scintillating 34-33 win in front of a raucous crowd of 29,717 at Sam Boyd Stadium. With a national TV audience on both the Mtn. and CBS College Sports watching, the Rebels rallied twice in the fourth quarter to come from behind and out-score the Warriors, giving UNLV its first one-point win in seven years. Clayton was sensational in the second half and finished with a career-high 340 yards passing (28-43) and three TDs, and the junior signal caller added an 11-yard rushing score in one of the best performances of his career. UNLV needed it, as Hawaii QB Greg Alexander threw for 477 yards and three TDs as well, and the Warriors had a trio of receivers with at least 100 yards each. Two long TD passes from Alexander gave Hawaii a 17-7 lead before Clayton connected with Jerriman Robinson for a 42-yard TD with less than two minutes remaining in the half. Hawaii added a 47-yard FG as time expired to go up 20-14, but its high-powered offense spent the majority of the third quarter watching from the sideline as UNLV controlled the ball for nearly 13 minutes in the stanza with two long drives. The second one gave the Rebels the lead as Clayton and Payne hooked up for an eight-yard TD that made the score 21-20 with 29 seconds remaining in the quarter, setting up a wild finish. Hawaii didn’t wait long to regain the lead, putting together an eight-play drive that Alexander ended with this third TD pass of the night, a 23-yard strike to Greg Salas. Just six plays later the Rebels were back in the end zone. Moments after Ryan Wolfe hauled in a 52-yard reception from Clayton, the quarterback took off up the middle for an 11-yard TD. After returning the kickoff to near midfield, the quick-strike Hawaii offense rolled down the field and Alex Green rumbled in from two yards out. Hawaii couldn’t convert on the two-point attempt, however, and the Warriors led 33-28 with 5:27 left in the game. Clayton then led his team on a methodical, clock-eating drive, using 14 plays that featured a mix of run and pass, with the end result being the fade TD to Payne that the sophomore hauled in near the side of the end zone for a 34-33 Rebel lead. UNLV couldn’t convert its two-point attempt, with Clayton’s pass sailing out of the end zone. With one more chance, Hawaii failed to move into field goal range and its Hail Mary attempt at the end of the game was batted harmlessly to the ground. Payne’s two scores were part of a career-high eight catches that covered 94 yards, while Wolfe added nine grabs for 130 yards, the 11th 100-yard receiving game in his career. Jason Beauchamp had 2.5 tackles for loss, including 1.5 sacks, to lead the

LARAMIE, Wyo. – Turnovers and missed opportunities plagued UNLV (2-2, 0-1 MWC) all afternoon as the Rebels lost, 30-27, in their Mountain West Conference opener against Wyoming (2-2, 1-0 MWC) at sun-baked War Memorial Stadium. The Rebels had a chance to tie the game late in the fourth, lining up for a 50-yard field goal with the wind at the back of kicker Kyle Watson. He never got the chance to attempt it, however, as the snap was fumbled for UNLV’s fourth turnover of the game and Wyoming ran out most of the remaining clock. The day got off to an ominous start when on the Rebels’ third offensive play, the snap went sailing by quarterback Omar Clayton, and the Cowboys recovered at the seven-yard line, setting up a short field goal. UNLV took its first lead of the game later in the first quarter when Channing Trotter went in from 18 yards out, giving his team a 7-3 advantage. In the second quarter the Rebels moved the ball to the 10-yard line twice, but had to settle for short field goals instead of TDs. That kept Wyoming in the game at 13-6, and a freshman quarterback made UNLV pay. Making his first career start, Austyn Carta-Samuels knotted the game at 13 with a 22-yard TD pass to Brandon Stewart with less than three minutes remaining in the half. Following the break, UNLV forced a three-and-out and the Rebels immediately moved the ball back into the red zone, had a first-and-goal at the five and were looking to seize control of the game. Wyoming’s defense stiffened, however, forcing a five-yard loss by Trotter before Clayton was picked off by Cowboy defensive back Tashuan Gipson at the four. UNLV’s defense again forced a three-andout and this time the offense converted when backup quarterback Mike Clausen scored from a yard out, giving the Rebels a 20-13 lead. But the Cowboy offense answered the Rebels blow-for-blow in the second half, including tying the score minutes later on a 34-yard TD catch by David Leonard. UNLV retook the lead early in the fourth when Clayton hooked up with Ryan Wolfe for an 18-yard catch-and-run, the wideout’s first TD of the year. Once again, however, the Cowboys matched the Rebels’ on yet another Carta-Samuels scoring strike, this one a 15-yard connection with Travis Burkhalter to tie the game for the third and final time at 27. Two plays later, Clayton would throw his second interception of the afternoon, allowing Gipson to record his second pick of the game. The turnover gave Wyoming the ball at the UNLV 37 and the Cowboys moved to the two-yard line before a sack by Rebel linebacker Jason Beauchamp on third-and-goal forced UW to settle for a 28-yard FG. The Rebels got the ball back with 4:21 left on the clock and Clayton moved his team down field, getting to the Wyoming 28 where UNLV faced a second-and-three. The Rebels could not convert the first down and continue the drive, as Clayton threw two incompletions. After an inexplicable delay of game penalty moved the ball five yards back, holder Brendan Lamers could not handle the snap. Trotter carried the ball a career-high 17 times for 90 yards and the score, while Wolfe finished with a game-high nine catches for 96 yards. Clayton extended his streak of consecutive games with a TD pass to 13, the third longest streak in MWC history. UNLV linebacker Starr Fuimaono led the defense with 11 tackles.

pack runs wild RENO, Nev. – UNLV (2-3) kept pace with Nevada, Reno (1-3) for three quarters, but the Wolf Pack used a four touchdown blitz in the fourth to turn a close game into a blowout and keep the Fremont Cannon for a fifth straight year, beating the Rebels 63-28 at Mackay Stadium. The game was tied at 28 with 4:20 remaining in the third following a 23-yard TD by Rebel running back C.J. Cox, which came following a Wolf Pack fumble. It was the fourth lost fumble of the game and a big reason UNLV was able to stay close. From there it was all Wolf Pack, as Mike Ball ran in from four yards out with 50 seconds remaining in the third to give his team the lead for good and propelling UNR to its first win of the season. Ball put an exclamation point on the victory with an 89-yard TD run late in the fourth, giving the freshman running back five scores on the ground and a game-high 184 yards rushing. Ball was one of three Wolf Pack runners with at least 170 yards rushing, as Luke Lippincott added 170 yards and a score and Colin Kaepernick picked up 173 yards. That trio helped UNR rack up 559 yards on the ground and 773 yards of total offense. Lippincott got the high-scoring game going with a 12-yard TD run in the first, and later in the opening quarter Ball burst through the middle for a 10-yard score and a 14-0 UNR lead. UNLV answered, as sophomore quarterback Mike Clausen, who was making his first start of the season in place of a banged up Omar Clayton, directed an 11-play drive that was capped by Channing Trotter’s 2-yard TD run less than a minute into the second quarter. Ball answered with a one-yard score to cap a Wolf Pack drive, but from there they got sloppy with the ball, fumbling three times in the second quarter. UNLV took advantage of those miscues, turning them into 14 points to tie the game at 21 entering the half. Clausen hooked up with Jerriman Robinson for a 39-yard TD and then Trotter bulled his way in from a yard out with 15 seconds remaining in the half for his second multi-touchdown effort of the season. UNR opened the second half like it did the first, moving the ball down the field on the ground with ease, and Ball cruised into the end zone from 32 yards out for his third score of the game and a 28-21 lead. UNR forced the Rebels to punt on their first possession of the quarter, but the UNLV defense stripped Ball of the ball, and nine plays later Cox found his way into the end zone, knotting the score at 28. The fourth quarter, however, would be devoid of dramatics, as the host continued to run its pistol offense to near perfection, ending any thoughts of a Rebel victory on a windy afternoon. Clausen finished the game with 276 yards passing and a TD, while sophomore wide receiver Phillip Payne caught a career-high 10 balls for 112 yards.

LAS VEGAS – No. 18/20 BYU (5-1, 2-0) used a balanced offense and opportunistic defense to beat UNLV (2-4, 0-2) 59-21 on Saturday night at Sam Boyd Stadium, extending the Rebels’ losing streak to three games. The Cougars raced out to an early 17-0 lead and the closest the Rebels would get was 24-14 in the third quarter on a 75-yard touchdown catch by Michael Johnson. BYU then scored 35 of the game’s next 42 points to win by a comfortable margin. Harvey Unga took in three first-half scores for the Cougars, finishing with 149 yards on 20 carries. UNLV’s lone score of the first half was a scintillating 94-yard kickoff return for a touchdown by Deante’ Purvis. The return made the score 17-7, and it ended a 10-year drought by UNLV, as its last kickoff return for a TD was by Lenny Ware against Utah on Sept. 25, 1999. Minutes later, however, Unga sprang free for a 52-yard touchdown that pushed the lead to 24-7, and that is where the game remained as the teams headed into the locker room at the half. On their first possession of the second half, the Rebels cut the deficit to 10 when quarterback Omar Clayton connected with Johnson and the speedster sprinted into the end zone. It was the first touchdown and the longest reception in Johnson’s career, and marked the longest pass that Clayton had thrown in his career. From there it was all BYU, with quarterback Max Hall throwing a pair of touchdown passes in the third quarter that were sandwiched around a rushing score by JoJo Pili, giving the Cougars a 45-14 lead heading into the fourth. Clayton found Rodelin Anthony in the back of the end zone for his second TD pass of the game, and then the Cougars tacked on a two rushing touchdowns to close out the scoring. Johnson finished the game with a career-high 113 yards receiving on six catches, becoming the third Rebel wideout in 2009 to reach the century mark in a game, joining teammates Ryan Wolfe and Phillip Payne. Clayton finished the game with 253 yards while also throwing two interceptions and extended his consecutive games streak with a passing TD to 14, which tied for the second longest in Mountain West Conference history. Sophomore safety Chris Jones turned in a career-high 10 tackles on the defensive side of the ball for UNLV. Wolfe caught eight passes to move into second place on the Mountain West Conference career receptions list, giving him 253 in his career and passing Jovon Bouknight of Wyoming (2002-05).

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – UNLV wide receiver Ryan Wolfe’s record-setting evening keyed the Rebels (3-5, 1-3 MWC) to their first Mountain West Conference road win in five years, a 34-17 victory over New Mexico (0-7, 0-3) at University Stadium. Wolfe tied his career high with 11 catches, and in the process became the MWC’s all-time leading receiver with 270 in his career, passing SDSU WR J.R. Tolver, who had 262 from 1999-2002. Behind that performance, UNLV snapped its 20-game conference road losing streak, winning a league game away from Las Vegas for the first time since a 24-20 victory at BYU on Oct. 8, 2004. The Rebels jumped out to an early 21-3 lead at halftime and although the Lobos closed to within a touchdown in the fourth quarter, UNLV scored the game’s last 10 points to spoil Homecoming for UNM. UNLV got on the board first when quarterback Omar Clayton connected with Phillip Payne for an eight-yard score, giving the sophomore wideout his team-leading fifth touchdown catch of the season. Channing Trotter rumbled in from two yards out to extend the lead to 14-0, and after a UNM field goal, Clayton hit Wolfe down the seam for a 28-yard score and a 21-3 lead. That capped a marvelous first half for Clayton, who was 11-13 for 120 yards and two TD passes. New Mexico scored its first touchdown of the game on a 25-yard pass from Donovan Porterie to Daryl Jones that made the score 21-10 in the third quarter. A Kyle Watson field goal from 33 yards out moved the lead back to two touchdowns, but that was cut in half less than a minute into the fourth quarter. Porterie found Lucas Reed for a 13-yard score and the Lobo defense then forced UNLV to punt for the first time all evening, and UNM appeared to be gaining momentum. Lobo returner Bryan Williams muffed the punt and UNLV defensive back Terrence Lee recovered, giving UNLV the ball at the New Mexico 11-yard line. Two plays later, sophomore signal caller Mike Clausen scampered in from four yards out to give UNLV a 31-17 lead, seemingly taking the life out of the Lobos and the crowd of 24,021. Watson tacked on his second field goal of the game, a 27-yard boot that closed the scoring for the evening. Clayton finished the game 20-30 for 204 yards and the two scores, and he added 50 yards on the ground, part of a strong team effort that saw UNLV churn out 210 rushing yards. UNLV defensive end/linebacker Jason Beauchamp turned in his best game of the season, recording nine tackles, including three for loss that included two sacks.

LAS VEGAS – UNLV (4-6, 2-4 MWC) was perfect in the red zone, efficient on offense and made enough plays on defense to earn a 35-16 victory over visiting Colorado State (3-7, 0-6 MWC), keeping the Rebels’ bowl prospects alive and ending the Rams’ postseason hopes. A crowd of 15,902 and a Mtn. television audience watched UNLV do something it had never done before, which was beat Colorado State at Sam Boyd Stadium, snapping a sixgame losing streak against the Rams at home. Following a scoreless first quarter, UNLV starting quarterback Omar Clayton got his team on the board with a 28-yard TD run early in the second quarter. CSU responded with a methodical, 15-play drive that ate up more than nine minutes of the clock and was capped by John Mosure’s one-yard TD, knotting the score at seven with 1:49 left in the half. That was more than enough time for Clayton, who operated the two-minute drill to perfection and in just six plays, drove his team 72 yards and ended it with a 13-yard TD strike to Jerriman Robinson. Clayton was a crisp 8-of-9 for 101 yards and the score in the half, while adding 27 yards on the ground on four carries. UNLV extended its lead to start the third quarter, as sophomore signal caller Mike Clausen ran in from five yards out to push the margin to 21-7. Three different Rebel running backs had runs of 17 yards or more during the drive. Later in the quarter the Rams connected on a 29-yard field goal to make it a 21-10 game, and then got the ball back early in the fourth following a Rebel punt. UNLV’s defense stepped up, however, and on third-and-six safety Marquel Martin picked off CSU backup quarterback Jon Eastman, the first Rebel interception in 30 quarters of play. Clayton kept the ensuing drive alive by floating a perfect pass to Robinson for a 28-yard gain on third-and-18, and three plays later Clausen scored again from five yards out, making it 2810. The two teams traded rushing TDs after that, with Mosure scoring from two yards out followed by UNLV running back Channing Trotter ending the scoring with a six-yard burst. That gave the Rebels four rushing TDs in the game, marking the first time that they punched in four scores on the ground since the season opener against Sacramento State. Clayton finished the game 10-of-17 for 147 yards while adding a season-high 44 yards on the ground as the Rebels churned out 174 yards of rushing. UNLV senior Jason Beauchamp was all over the field, turning in a season-high 14 total tackles, while fellow linebacker Ronnie Paulo added 11.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – Playing in snow for possibly the first time ever and certainly in at least 25 years, UNLV (4-7, 2-5) could not slow down Air Force’s (7-4, 5-2) option attack and the Rebels saw their bowl hopes end in a 45-17 loss on a numbingly-cold evening at Falcon Stadium. The temperature at kickoff was a brisk 33 degrees with a wind chill down to 20. As the game wore on, the rain and snow mix turned into flurries but it did not slow down the Falcons, who racked up 431 yards of rushing. Asher Clark led the way for Air Force, carrying the ball 18 times for 160 yards and three scores, including two in the fourth quarter. He started things for the Falcons, scoring on a 24-yard TD run in the first quarter and then Jared Tew rumbled in from two yards out to open the second quarter. UNLV got on the board with a 37-yard field goal by Kyle Watson, and that was matched by Erik Soderberg’s 34-yard boot that made the score 17-3. The Rebels were driving and, following an eight-yard run by quarterback Omar Clayton on fourth-and-four, had the ball at the Falcon 11-yard line. But on the following play Clayton lofted a pass to Ryan Wolfe that Air Force safety Chris Thomas came in and picked off, abruptly ending UNLV’s drive. AFA converted the turnover into a back-breaking touchdown, moving down the field with a mix of run and pass, and Savier Stephens ended the drive with a 10-yard score that pushed the lead to 24-3 entering halftime. UNLV cut into the lead midway through the third when Clayton hit Phillip Payne along the sideline and the sophomore wide out shed a tackle and went 30 yards for the touchdown. Air Force didn’t let up, however, getting a pair of two-yard touchdowns on the ground from Nathan Walker and then Clark that upped the score to 38-10 less than a minute into the fourth quarter. UNLV backup quarterback Mike Clausen tacked on his seventh rushing score of the season, a sixyard burst at the 9:31 mark of the fourth that made it 38-17. The Rebels then attempted an on-side kick that the Falcons recovered at the 40. On the very next play Clark took an option pitch and skirted down the right sideline for his third rushing score of the chilly night to cap the scoring. With the Falcons carrying the ball 71 times the Rebel defense was busy, as safety Terrance Lee recorded a career-high 15 tackles and linebacker Starr Fuimaono brought down 12 ball carriers.

LAS VEGAS – UNLV (5-7, 3-5 MWC) scored the last three touchdowns of the game, including a pair of fourth-quarter scores, to rally and beat visiting San Diego State (4-8, 2-6 MWC) on what was the final home game for 16 Rebel seniors. It was also the final game for head coach Mike Sanford, who was fired the week before after five seasons at the helm of UNLV. It was a tale of two halves, as the Aztecs built a 21-7 halftime lead that grew to 24-7 early in the third quarter following a field goal, but that would be SDSU’s final points of the game. UNLV junior quarterback Omar Clayton started the comeback with a seven-yard touchdown run at the 6:48 mark of the third quarter, and then early in the fourth, senior defensive back Terrance Lee returned an interception 40 yards for a TD. Lee’s score marked the first time UNLV returned a pick for a touchdown since the 2007 season, and it brought the Rebels to within 24-21 with nearly the entire fourth quarter to play. UNLV had a chance to tie with 3:29 left in the game, but Kyle Watson missed a 37-yard attempt, giving the ball back to the Aztecs. UNLV’s defense rose to the occasion, forcing a three-and-out that was punctuated by Heivaha Mafi’s 12-yard sack of SDSU quarterback Ryan Lindley on third down. Following the punt, the Rebels had the ball at their own 46. It did not take Clayton long to lead his team down field, completing a short pass before he connected with Jerriman Robinson for a 35-yard pick-up. On the next play he found Phillip Payne for a 17-yard score that vaulted the Rebels ahead, 28-24, with 1:24 left on the clock. SDSU, however, had all three of its time outs and managed to run 11 plays and move the ball down to the 30-yard line with 11 seconds remaining -- time enough for two attempts to the end zone. Both passes from Lindley fell incomplete, the final one being broken up by Starr Fuimaono, and the Rebels held on for the victory. UNLV running back Channing Trotter put UNLV on the board first with a 29-yard run less than two minutes into the game. San Diego State would then score 24 unanswered points, including a 55-yard interception return for a score by Luke Laolagi near the end of the first quarter. Payne’s touchdown capped a strong night for the sophomore pass catcher, as he had five catches for 107 yards, while Clayton finished the game with 274 yards passing. On the defensive side of the ball, senior linebacker Jason Beauchamp brought down 15 ball carriers and also added a sack, while Lee also had a sack and eight tackles to go with his interception return.

REBEL BOWL HISTORY

till the winningest team in UNLV I-A history at 112 overall, the 1984 squad earned the school its first bowl bid and went on to beat Toledo 30-13 in the California Bowl. The first Big West team to ever win seven league games, Coach Harvey Hyde’s Rebels lost only a close game at Hawaii and to 10th-ranked SMU in the regular-season finale, the night Randall Cunningham’s No. 12 jersey was retired at halftime. Not surprisingly, UNLV swept the league’s postseason honors with Offensive Player of the Year Cunningham, Defensive Co-Player of the Year Aaron Moog and Coach of the Year Hyde. UNLV took on an 8-2-1 Mid-American Conference Champion Toledo squad in the fourth California Bowl in front of a national ESPN audience. The Rebels won impressively, 30-13, though the game was later ruled technically forfeited by UNLV because of the use of ineligible players during the season, none of whom played in the bowl game. The Rebels broke the game open with 17 third-quarter points led by Cunningham’s passing and the running of a freshman from Fresno named Elbert “Ickey” Woods. Cunningham’s 270 yards through the air helped him earn MVP honors. Just a few months later the lanky QB became a secondround choice of the Philadelphia Eagles in the 1985 NFL Draft. Woods went on to lead the nation in rushing in 1987 with 1,658 yards before “shuffling” off to Cincinnati as a second-round pick in 1988.

California Bowl MVP Randall Cunningham threw for two touchdowns and ran for another.

ppearing in its first bowl game in a decade, UNLV blasted Mid-American Conference opponent Central Michigan in the second meeting of the year between the two clubs. Playing it up for a national television audience on ESPN, the Rebels (7-5), who racked up 589 yards in offense (the most by any ’94 bowl team) jumped out to a quick 14-0 lead over the Chippewas (9-3). Not even two minutes had passed in the first quarter when Henry Bailey, the Rebels’ career receiving leader, exploded for a 46-yard touchdown reception from Jared Brown. The strike was the first of four UNLV touchdowns longer than 30 yards on the night. After the Chips pulled to 14-10, the Rebel offensive machine continued to roll and UNLV pulled away for good on a 15-yard fumble return for a TD by defensive end Keith Washington. UNLV eventually cruised to a 52-10 lead before clearing the bench. Las Vegas Bowl III MVP Bailey, soon to be a Pittsburgh Steelers draftee, rushed for 79 yards on seven carries with three TDs, and accumulated 101 yards receiving with one score. Sophomore RB DeJohn Branch had a sparkling performance, carrying the ball 13 times for 125 yards, and Brown finished the game 11-for-21 for 195 yards with two TDs and 32 yards rushing.

REBEL BOWL HISTORY

laying before a national ESPN2 audience and a Las Vegas Bowl-record 29,113 fans, UNLV (8-5) won its fourth straight for the first time since 1984 and moved to 3-0 all-time in bowl games with a surprisingly onesided 31-14 victory over Arkansas (6-6), the Rebels’ first over a team from the powerful Southeastern Conference. UNLV quarterback Jason Thomas earned MVP honors by completing 12 of 17 pass attempts for 217 yards and three scores without an interception as well as rushing for 32 yards on 10 carries. Thomas’ favorite target was Nate Turner, who ended his career with 126 yards on eight catches – all in the first half. Jeremi Rudolph gained 92 yards on 14 carries and Kevin Brown had 78 on 13 attempts. Arkansas, which was fresh from two consecutive victories over ranked SEC opponents to become bowl eiligible, opened the scoring with the only points of the first quarter. UNLV answered with a Thomas-to-Turner 19-yard pass, which was the first TD given up by the Razorbacks in 11 quarters. Two minutes later the Hogs used Robby Hampton’s second scoring throw of the game to take a 14-7 lead. UNLV, however, struck again to square things before halftime with a five-yard Turner TD. Things stayed tied until with just over two minutes left in the third, Thomas found Troy Mason with a stunning 54-yard TD strike that was the second longest in bowl history. After a Dillon Pieffer field goal put UNLV up 24-14, the Razorbacks elected to go for it on fourth and 10 from the Rebel 37 with more than 12 minutes remaining. The UNLV defense forced an incompletion and the inspired Rebels eventually closed their shocking 24-point scoring run with an 18-yard Brown run. The Rebels out-gained the bigger Hogs, who had defeated seven straight non-conference opponents and were 6-0 vs. MWC teams, 476 to 298. UNLV also held its opponent to under 200 yards rushing (115) for the 12th time in 2000. The Rebels, who moved to 2-0 in Las Vegas Bowls, earned their most victories in a season since 1984 and finished the season a perfect 6-0 at Sam Boyd Stadium. Head Coach John Robinson moved to 8-1 in bowl games during his career, which made him the winningest bowl coach in NCAA D-I history with a percentage of .889. “This is particularly gratifying because our guys were at their best,” Robinson said during the post-game celebration.

REBELS IN THE PROS CUNNINGHAM HEADS UNLV’S NFL ALUMNI Still the career passing and punting leader at UNLV, Randall Cunningham left his school as its most accomplished player and went on to become one of the top quarterbacks in NFL history. Before Michael Vick and Donovan McNabb there was Randall. A national figure who broke the racial barrier at his position, Cunningham augmented his cannon arm and booming punting leg by re-defining the running ability of a pro quarterback and remains the league’s all-time rushing QB with 4,928 yards. Rising to stardom with the team that drafted him 37th overall in 1985 - Philadelphia Cunningham went on to play 11 seasons with the Eagles, three with the Vikings, one with the Cowboys and his final two with the Ravens. The four-time Pro Bowl invitee won Most Outstanding Player honors in the 1989 game after leading the NFC to a 34-3 blowout. Joining Johnny Unitas as the only three-time winners of the Bert Bell Award, which goes to the league’s top player, Cunningham was also named the NFL Player of the Year in 1998 after leading Minnesota to the league’s best record and engineering what was the highest scoring offense in history. The Las Vegas resident retired, symbolically, as an Eagle, in 2002 but still ranks in the top 25 in league annals in passing yards, TDs and completions.

Although most famous for his time with the Eagles, Randall Cunningham won NFL Player of the Year honors while leading the Vikings.

Wonder of Waco: Remembering “The Return” Did it really happen? Did 1999’s most memorable play in college football really take place on a muggy Sept. 11 night in Waco, Texas? Did UNLV really pull off something never before done to start 2-0 on the road for the first time in 25 years? Yes. Yes. And, surprisingly – no make that inexplicably, yes. UNLV made history by becoming the first team to win a college football game on the last play while trailing and without the ball. And it all happened because of one team’s intention to run up the score and another team’s refusal to allow it. Host Baylor was leading the Rebels 24-21 with eight seconds left when it ran a

rushing play to attempt to score again instead of simply downing the ball to end the game. After Bears running back Darrell Bush was stood up at the one-yard line by the Rebel defense, LB Tyler Brickell managed to force a fumble. DB Kevin Thomas picked up the ball in the end zone and, with no time on the clock, raced more than the length of the field to score his team’s winning points as UNLV prevailed 27-24. The shocking video showed up on everyone’s highlight show while UNLV announcer Tony Cordasco’s now-famous radio call repeatedly

Tyler Brickell (No. 48) stripped Baylor RB Darrell Bush just outside the end zone.

Kevin Thomas (No. 28) picked up the fumble and sprinted 100 yards the opposite way.

played across the nation. It was only the third time in NCAA I-A history that a fumble had been returned 100 yards (interestingly, the second time came against UNLV at Rice just four games earlier in ‘98). “I started to walk over toward the middle of the field to (Baylor’s) bench,” UNLV Head Coach John Robinson said. “I knew (BU coach Kevin Steele) was in shock. They didn’t move. Their whole bench was just standing there like a painting.’’ In 2007, the play ranked 85th in ESPN.com’s Top 100 Defining Plays in College Football History.

Thomas took the ball 100 yards and UNLV moved to 2-0.

April 24 Rebel center Joe Hawley goes higher in the NFL Draft than any offensive lineman in UNLV history when he is selected by the Atlanta Falcons in the fourth round. It marks the fourth consecutive year that at least one UNLV player is drafted, which is the longest streak for the school since an eight-year string in 1975-82.

REBEL AWARD WINNERS 2007 MWC DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE YEAR Beau Bell was a dominant force on his side of the ball in 2007, leading the league with 126 total tackles and five forced fumbles to go with 9.5 TFL and 3 sacks. He also led the team with four interceptions, including one at Wyoming that he returned for his first career TD. Bell became the first player in MWC history to be named defensive player of the week three times in one season and left UNLV ranked second in all-time tackles with 320. The fourth Rebel ever to be invited to play in the Senior Bowl, Bell had eight double-digit tackle games as a senior and went on to become the top draft pick of the Cleveland Browns. 2006 MWC FRESHMAN OF THE YEAR Ryan Wolfe’s first game as a collegian saw him catch six balls for 160 yards, including a 71-yard touchdown sprint. The rookie later proved it was no fluke when he hauled in nine receptions for a MWCfreshman-record-tying 176 yards vs. New Mexico. He also posted 108 yards vs. Air Force to close the campaign. Named First Team Freshman All-America by the Football Writers Assoc. of America, Wolfe was UNLV’s first first team all-conference receiver since 1997 after becoming the first freshman to ever lead the conference in receiving yards (911), which ranked 26th nationally. He also became the program’s fourth player to win a league’s official freshman award. 2002 & 2003 MWC DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE YEAR Hometown hero Jamaal Brimmer exploded onto the scene as a sophomore in 2002, including leading the MWC with 17 tackles for loss and a squad-leading 5.5 QB sacks. Hence, he was the pick of both the coaches and media for league MVP honors in. One year later, his stats only improved as he led the league with six interceptions and four forced fumbles, which led to two key defensive scores. His eyepopping day in leading his team to an upset of Wisconsin got him national defensive player of the week honors and helped him become a semifinalist for the Thorpe Award and repeat as the consensus defensive MVP of his conference, despite being snubbed by MWC coaches.

2001 MWC FRESHMAN OF THE YEAR ‘Nique the Streak burst on to the scene with a scintillating 87-yard kickoff return vs. Northwestern in his first career attempt. Nine returns later he had broken the school record for season average at 36.4. Despite injuries, he displayed similar bursts at tailback and led the team with a 6.6-yard average, including TD runs of 56 and 40 yards. Against UNR, he set a league rookie record by gaining 180 yards on just 18 carries.

2001 MWC DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE YEAR The school’s first Division I All-American on his side of the ball, cornerback Thomas wrapped up perhaps the finest defensive career in Rebel history by breaking the school and MWC singleseason record for interceptions with seven, leading the nation in both interception return yardage and defensive scoring after taking three balls back for touchdowns while also pacing the league in passes defended with 17.

1984 PCAA CO-DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE YEAR The complete package along the line with superb speed, agility and aggressiveness, Moog led one of UNLV’s best-ever defenses by totaling 63 tackles, including six for loss, six sacks and three pass breakups. The Rebels flirted with the national rankings by winning their first league title and bowl championship en route to an 11-2 overall mark.

1998 WAC FRESHMAN OF THE YEAR (PACIFIC DIVISION) A true Hawaiian warrior, Sunia became the first freshman in school history voted team captain and went on to start all 11 games at middle linebacker. Named First Team Freshman All-America by Football News after leading his team with 115 total tackles, Sunia would gain 119 takedowns a year later but spend his final two seasons suffering from various injuries that would keep him from breaking UNLV’s career tackle record.

2000 MWC CO-COACH OF THE YEAR Just a year after taking over a program that posted its first-ever winless season, Robinson led the Rebels to their most wins since 1984 (8-5) and victory over Arkansas in the Las Vegas Bowl. Despite the amazing turnaround, Robinson shared his award with MWC champion Colorado State leader Sonny Lubick.

1996 WAC FRESHMAN OF THE YEAR (MOUNTAIN DIVISION) Arguably the best freshman quarterback in Division I-A history, Denton shattered 10 NCAA freshman records and 10 other school offensive marks for a team that won only one game. His nine 200-yard passing games included a school-record 503-yard performance vs. SDSU while his 3,591 yards and 25 TDs passing were NCAA single-season records for a frosh. On pace to shatter every conceivable UNLV passing record, the DENTON-ATOR would play only one more season before transferring to Eastern Kentucky. 1987 PCAA OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE YEAR Saving the best for last, Elbert “Ickey” Woods gained only 267 yards his first three seasons. As a senior he proceeded to lead the nation in rushing with 1,658 yards on 259 carries (6.4 YPC) and put in 10 touchdowns. He tied a school record with seven consecutive 100-yard games, including an incredible three straight over 200. The next spring he would become the highest drafted Rebel in history at No. 31 overall and go on to lead the Cincinnati Bengals to the Super Bowl behind his signature Ickey Shuffle.

1994 BIG WEST CO-COACH OF THE YEAR Under a first-year head coach, the Rebels rebounded from a 3-8 record to shock the league and earned a three-way tie for the Big West championship with a 5-1 record. Winning the tiebreaker, UNLV earned the Las Vegas Bowl bid and crushed Central Michigan 52-24. Horton shared his award with Pacific head man Chuck Shelton. 1984 PCAA COACH OF THE YEAR The most successful Rebel squad since moving to division one, Hyde’s 1984 Rebels were 11-2 overall and 7-0 in the Pacific Coast Athletic Association. The season, which culminated with a 30-13 victory over Toledo in the California Bowl, also produced the school’s first league coach of the year award.

1983 & 1984 PCAA OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE YEAR The first two-time league MVP for the Rebels, Randall Cunningham was an All-American punter and future NFL star at quarterback. The school’s career passing leader threw for 2,545 yards, 18 TDs and only 8 INTs in 1983 and followed that up with 2,628 yards, 24 TDs and 10 INTs in a senior campaign that saw his team finish 11-2, including winning the PCAA title and California Bowl. The next spring, he would be drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles with the 37th pick and go on to a sterling 15-year pro career.

One of only four repeat AllAmericans in UNLV history, Joe Ingersoll (1973-75) also was the first defensive player from the Rebels so honored. The Salt Lake City native played his freshman year at Utah before transferring to the desert and performing as a dominant defensive lineman for three years. As a junior, “Big Joe” led the undefeated 1974 UNLV team in tackles with 105, including four sacks, and was tabbed an AP Div. II Second Team All-American. As a senior, the terrific tackle earned first team honors from the AFCA and would go on to become a seventh round choice by the Miami Dolphins in the 1976 NFL Draft. In 1987, Ingersoll was a member of the inaugural UNLV Athletics Hall of Fame.

Although he is now known for being the NFL’s all-time leading rushing quarterback, Santa Barbara, Calif., native Randall Cunningham (1981-84) won his national collegiate honors at his other position – punter. Still the Rebels’ leader for punting average in a game (58.0), season (47.5) and career (45.6), Cunningham would own the second-best career punting average in college football history if he had punted just eight more times during his three years on the field. Touted as a Heisman Trophy candidate for his lethal combination of talent throwing, running and punting the ball, Cunningham was named first team All-America in 1983 (as well as honorable mention QB by AP) and second team in 1984, making him UNLV’s first two-time All-American since the school moved to Division I in 1977. He would go on to be the 37th pick in the 1985 NFL Draft by the Philadelphia Eagles and was named the 1998 NFL Player of the Year as a Minnesota Viking QB.

JIM SANDUSKY Wide Receiver

Although his UNLV career was brief, San Diego native Jim Sandusky (1981) turned in the greatest receiving year in school history during his one year on campus. Catching balls from the arm of QB Sam King as part of head coach Tony Knap’s free-wheeling offense, Sandusky hauled in 68 passes (17 more than any previous Rebel) for 1,346 yards, which is still a school record. Despite playing in only 12 games, Sandusky remains tied for second at the school with eight career 100-yard receiving games. Such output would earn him Second Team All-America honors. However, with Knap retiring, Sandusky would transfer to San Diego State and go on to a distinguished career in the NFL and Canadian Football League.

The bluest of Blue Chip recruits out of Greenville, Texas, Mike Thomas 1973-74, signed on with the University of Oklahoma but soon left Norman to ride his way West and right into the Rebel – and national – record books. His two seasons in Las Vegas were nothing less than stunning. As a junior in 1973, he scored a school-record 20 touchdowns and led the nation in rushing yards with 1,741, which was just 35 short of the then-NCAA single-season record. A year later, Thomas added 1,408 yards and 17 rushing scores to lead the Rebels to their only undefeated regular season and a Div. II ranking as high as No. 2 before losing in a national semifinal game. His still-UNLV-best career totals were 3,149 yards and 37 TDs born from a 6.6-yards-per-carry average. Both seasons resulted in AFCA First Team All-America nods for UNLV’s first true football star to make him the only two-time first-teamer in Rebel history. Thomas would go on to complete a fine NFL career with the Washington Redskins and San Diego Chargers.

REBEL ALL-AMERICANS JAMAAL BRIMMER Safety

2004 Sporting News-2nd Team AP-3rd Team 2003 Football News-1st Team

The first non-senior to earn All-America at UNLV since Randall Cunningham in 1983, Jamaal Brimmer (2001-04) also became the first non-punting first team honoree for the Rebels since 1975. The hometown hero introduced himself to the nation early in the season with the greatest single defensive performance in school in leading his team to a major upset at Wisconsin on national TV. Brimmer’s phenomenal day, which included 11 tackles, two interceptions, one fumble return for a TD and two quarterback sacks, earned him the Bronko Nagurski National Defensive Player of the Week honors. The free safety, who would be voted the school’s first two-time consensus league MVP in his career, led the MWC with six interceptions and four forced fumbles to go with three sacks and four fumble recoveries in 2003. The first UNLV semifinalist for the Jim Thorpe Award became the school’s first two-time All-American since Cunningham with nods from AP and The Sporting News as a senior. That followed being named a community service All-American as a member of the 2004 AFCA Good Works Team.

JOE KRISTOSIK

Joe Kristosik (1995-98) was a bright light through the program’s only winless season in 1998. He walked on to his hometown team in 1994 and five years later walked away as the school’s first and only consensus First Team All-American. Kristosik was the first Rebel booter to lead the nation in punting with a 46.2-yard average, which was the second-highest in NCAA history with a minimum of 75 attempts. Along the way, he turned in perhaps the greatest performance ever by a collegiate punter when he had 13 tries at BYU with eight going longer than 50 yards and a stunning four traveling at least 60 yards, including two season-long kicks of 67 yards. Kristosik became the first-ever UNLV member of the prestigious Walter Camp Football Foundation team.

Making a strong bid as being the best defensive player in school history, Kevin Thomas (1998-2001) turned on the gas to close out his stellar career and become the first Rebel on his side of the ball to earn All-America since 1975. Holder of various school and conference records, KT came to Las Vegas from Sacramento as a scrawny and unheralded defensive back but left as one of the best cover men in the nation en route to being tabbed third team All-America by Football News and fourth team by The Sporting News. The second three-time first team all-conference player in Rebel history, his seven picks as a senior broke the UNLV and MWC record for a single season as he led the nation in interception return yardage (213) and defensive scoring (18 points). An iron man who never missed a start in four seasons (UNLV-record 46 overall), his six career touchdowns highlighted a school-record 55 career pass breakups. The Jim Thorpe candidate and MWC Defensive Player of the Year played in both the Senior Bowl and East-West Shrine Game before being selected by the Buffalo Bills in the NFL Draft.

Punter

A transfer from Glendale (Calif.) Junior College, Brad Faunce (1993-94) used his powerful leg to post an impressive two-year career at UNLV. His junior season included a 45-yard punting average that earned him Second Team All-America honors. Also the squad’s kickoff man in 1994, Faunce’s memorable 91-yard punt vs. UNR was not only a school record, but also helped the Rebels upset the Wolf Pack to win the Big West Conference title and a berth in Las Vegas Bowl III.

BRIAN PARVIN

1992 Football News-2nd Team

Brian Parvin (1991-92) became UNLV’s first All-American in seven years when he was named to Football News’ second team as a senior. A transfer from Mt. San Antonio Junior College in Walnut, Calif., Parvin turned in a fine junior campaign with a 41.9-yard punting average, which was good for 18th in the nation. His senior year, however, produced the second-highest season number in school history with 46.3 – the third-best average in the nation in 1992.

THE UNIVERSITY

UNLV CAMPUS FACTS

ombining the excitement of an urban location with the charm of a traditional campus, the University of Nevada, Las Vegas offers students a full educational and social experience. Just decades old, UNLV has maintained a healthy rate of growth in enrollment, programs and scholastic excellence as part of the eight-component Nevada System of Higher Education. Located in the heart of one of the world’s most vibrant and dynamic cities, UNLV has matured along with the Las Vegas area. With enrollment more than doubling the last decade, the tremendous growth has meant a flurry of construction resulting in a campus setting boasting academic and athletic facilities second to none. Steadily becoming a traditional residential university, UNLV provides on-campus housing for more than 2,000 students. A variety of student clubs and organizations along with 26 Greek organizations supplement the social development of students. From within its 15 schools and colleges, including the new William S. Boyd School of Law, UNLV is also becoming a leading research institution of the West. The school’s scientific, social science, and business programs attract millions of dollars in research grants annually to fund projects in desert biology, nuclear waste transportation, laser physics, public opinion surveys and many others. In addition to traditional student programs, UNLV serves diverse local, national and international communities through its Educational Outreach Division, offering Summer Term, Continuing Education and Distance Education programs enrolling more than 53,000 students annually. With its Performing Arts Center, the campus is the cultural hub of Southern Nevada. World-class orchestras and soloists, dance and theater arts combine to provide a broad selection of concerts and stage productions. The Barrick Lecture Series and several campus organizations bring noted speakers to the University, and local and visiting artists show their works in the Donna Beam Fine Art Gallery. UNLV has excellent athletic facilities as well, many open for student and public use. Opened in 1957 as the southern regional division of the University of Nevada with a total of 28 students, UNLV now is home to more than 29,000 students coming from every county in Nevada, all 50 U.S. states and 88 countries. Much of UNLV’s tremendous expansion is the result of support from the Nevada Legislature and

the state’s taxpayers. Private donors have played an important role as well. These gifts support new facilities and programs and, most important, provide the scholarship incentives that bring Nevada’s best and brightest student scholars to campus. UNLV operates an on-campus Center for Business and Economic Research, Center for Economic Education, Harry Reid Center for Environmental Studies (in cooperation with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency), Desert Biology Research Center, Center for Survey Research, Nuclear Waste Transportation Research Center and other research and public-service centers. Offering 108 undergraduate programs and 138 graduate tracts, UNLV graduated a class of more than 5,000 last year. The University operates on a semester system and is a member of the American Association of State Colleges and Universities, the Council of Graduate Schools, the American Council of Education and the Western College Association. All of the University’s academic programs are fully accredited by the Northwest Association of Schools and Colleges, and many programs have received further accreditation from independent national accreditation bodies.

ATHLETICS DIRECTOR

ATHLETICS DIRECTOR JIM LIVENGOOD

ringing with him a wealth of experience and the reputation as one of the nation’s top administrators, Jim Livengood was introduced as UNLV’s 11th full-time Director of Athletics on Dec. 17, 2009. Livengood wasted no time getting to work, as less than two weeks later he hired Bobby Hauck as the 10th head coach in Rebel football history. Just three months after that it was announced that a new, state-of-the-art basketball practice facility, the Mendenhall Center, would be built, with construction starting later in the year. Livengood came to UNLV following a successful tenure of more than 15 years at the University of Arizona where he oversaw an athletics program that annually competed for championships not only in the Pac-10 Conference but also at a national level, maintained a high academic standard for its student-athletes and continually operated its $43 million budget in the black. His fiscal leadership helped Arizona remain one of the lone black-ink athletics programs among a small handful of institutions that rely exclusively on generated funds and do not receive state-appropriated monies. During his time in Tucson, he served as the Pacific-10 Conference president, chair of the Pac-10 Athletic Directors Revenue Sharing Committee and a member of the conference's Bowl Committee and Basketball Tournament Subcommittee. He also was a member of the Rose Bowl Management Committee, the NCAA Fellows program, NACDA President, and chair of the NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Committee, on which he served five years. His work at Arizona and its extension on the national level earned him an Athletic Director of the Year Award from the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics in 2006 for Division I-A.

Livengood initiated Campaign Arizona, which raised more than $130 million for athletic facility improvements and endowments while the Wildcats maintained a top-25 competitive record in the NACDA Directors' Cup (formerly Sears Cup), including high rankings of sixth in 1993-94, fourth in 1994-95, seventh in 1995-96, sixth in both 1996-97 and 1997-98 and ninth in 2001-02. That record reflects success throughout Arizona's broad-based program, highlighted by participation in the 1994 and 2001 NCAA Men's Final Four and champions of the 1997 NCAA Men's National Basketball Tournament. Arizona also won the 1994, 1996, 1997, 2001, 2006 and 2007 NCAA Women's Softball College World Series titles, the 1996 and 2000 NCAA Women's Golf titles and the 2008 men's and women's NCAA Swimming Championships. UA's student-athlete graduation rate continued to be historically higher than that of the general student body rate during his tenure at UA. Nearly 100 student-athletes earned conference or regional all-academic honors, and 20 percent of UA student-athletes attained honors-level cumulative grade point averages. Livengood is a member of the NCAA Fellows Program to mentor new athletic directors, has served as a member of the NCAA Peer Review Team from 1994-99, the NCAA Gender Equity Task Force, and the Women's Committee on Athletics. He has been a member of the NACDA Preseason Football Games Committee since 2000 and was a member of the NACDA Strategic Planning Committee from 1999-2001. He served as NACDA president in 1998-1999, and in 1999 was named Division I-A Athletic Director of the Year. He is also a member of the Division 1-A Athletic Directors Association, having served as president of that association in 1998. Livengood spent six years as the Athletics Director at Washington State University from 198893 where he developed what is still widely regarded as a model gender-equity program. In addition he laid the groundwork for a student-athlete wellness center that is regarded as one of the finest in the nation. Livengood began his administrative career in 1980 as the Associate Director for Development and Public Relations at Washington State before becoming the Athletics Director at

Southern Illinois, a position he held until returning to Washington State. Born March 28, 1945, in Walla Walla, Wash., he received his bachelor's degree from Brigham Young University in 1968 and completed his fifthyear education requirement for teaching certification at Central Washington University in 1972. He taught and served as an assistant football coach and track coach at Moses Lake High School in Washington in 1968-69, and as head football and basketball coach and counselor at Ephrata High School in Washington from 1972-80 before moving into athletics administration. Jim and his wife, Linda, have two grown children, Michelle, a lawyer in Tucson, and Jeremy, who resides in Phoenix. Both children are University of Arizona graduates. Michelle earned her law degree in May 2000 and Jeremy graduated in December 1999. The Livengoods are the proud grandparents of twin daughters, Emma and Isabella, born to Michelle and husband, Jack Murphy, in March 2009.

Six different Rebel sports will be represented during ceremonies, as the seven-person, two-team class will be inducted into the UNLV Athletics Hall of Fame as the Class of 2010 on Oct. 1. Five former Rebel standout players, one head coach and a distinguished contributor will join two record-setting teams in being inducted. Born in 1987, UNLV’s Athletics Hall of Fame will now grow to 105 members strong. Under the hall’s bylaws, former student-athletes must have completed their eligibility at least 10 years earlier to be selected. Coaches and administrators must have stopped working at the University five years previous. All classes now enter on a biennial basis. JEREMY ANDERSON (1996-2000) was prolific performer on the golf course and in the classroom and is the only athlete in school history to be a three-time All-American and three-time academic AllAmerican. A member of head coach Dwaine Knight’s 1998 National Championship squad, Anderson had the unusual honor of being voted player of the year in two different conferences (1999 Western Athletic and 2000 Mountain West). A first team All-American in 1999 and 2000, he was also a second team choice in 1998 as he posted three finishes in the top 30 at NCAA Championships. DANIEL BARBER (1989-92) is one of only two All-Americans in Rebel soccer history, as he was a Freshman All-American in 1989 and then a third team selection two seasons later. UNLV’s all-time assists leader with 26, Barber was first team all-conference and all-region in 1991 and first team all-league again in ‘92. JULIE CRANDALL (1995-98) is regarded as the best catcher in UNLV’s storied softball history and is one of five Rebels to be a multipleseason All-American as she was voted third team in both 1995 and ‘98. A three-time first team all-conference honoree, Crandall started behind the plate as a freshman for the best team in school history, helping the 1995 Rebels to a tie for third place at the Women’s College World Series. NICK GARRITANO (1991-94) was arguably the nation’s top place-kicker as a senior and he left as UNLV’s second-leading scorer in history with 240 points (four points behind running back Mike Thomas). Leading the Rebels in scoring three of his four seasons, Garritano was a 1994 semifinalist for the Lou Groza Award after leading all of college football in 50-yard field goals made, nailing five of seven attempts from 50-59 yards. RYAN LUDWICK (1997-99) played three seasons at UNLV before becoming the fourth-highest draft pick in program history (60th overall in 1999).

ninth in batting average (.363) and still ranks fourth at the school with 43 homeruns. The 1997 First Team Freshman All-American was a two-time preseason All-American and postseason all-conference honoree. The 1994 UNLV FOOTBALL TEAM is one of two in school history to win a conference championship and head coach Jeff Horton’s squad did it in style with a stunning 32-27 upset of arch-rival Nevada, Reno at Sam Boyd Stadium. The Rebels, who at 5-1 shared the league title with UNR and Louisiana-Lafayette, earned the Big West’s lone postseason bid via tie-breaker and went on to rout Central Michigan 52-24 in Las Vegas Bowl III to finish with an overall record of 7-5 and post the program’s most wins in 10 years. The 1985 UNLV MEN’S SOCCER TEAM was the winningest group in program history, seting multiple school records, including most wins and fewest losses as head coach Barry Barto’s squad finished 18-2-2. The Rebels, who also reeled off a record 18-game unbeaten streak during the campaign, finished the season ranked fourth in the nation by Soccer America after rising as high as second that fall. HEAD COACH DR. LARRY EASLEY (Deceased) (1992-03) coached the UNLV men’s tennis team longer than anyone in history, was named conference coach of the year three times and was also twice named Intercollegiate Tennis Association Regional Coach of the Year in 1998 and 2001. His all-time record of 141-120 included leading UNLV to three Big West Conference championships. Easley produced four of UNLV’s five all-time men’s All-Americans, including two individual national champions when Luke Smith won the NCAA singles championship and then teamed with Tim Blenkiron to capture the NCAA doubles title in 1997. DISTINGUISHED CONTRIBUTOR BOB MENDENHALL is the owner and chief executive officer of the Las Vegas Paving Corporation. A longtime supporter of the UNLV program, Mendenhall most recently became a major part of a group that is building and donating a new multi-million dollar practice facility for the Runnin’ Rebels.
