SEASON OUTLOOK RUNNIN' REBELS ADD TALENT TO ROSTER FOR 2017-18 SEASON OUTLOOK

By Andy Grossman, UNLV Athletics Communications With a recruiting class ranked as high as 12th in the country, expectations have risen for the UNLV men’s basketball program in head coach Marvin Menzies' second season. Most know the story of the 2016-17 squad - the staff had to quickly assemble a roster, adding 12 newcomers after being hired in late April. But with a full year to recruit, the coaches were able to significantly upgrade the talent in the program. This year's class includes McDonald’s High School All-American Brandon McCoy and National Junior College Player of the Year Shakur Juiston. Key returners from last year's team are leading scorer Jovan Mooring, Kris Clyburn, and off a redshirt year Jordan Johnson. With the new mix of players on the 201718 roster, much of the offseason talk has centered around style of play. "We talk about that a lot, are we going to run?" Menzies said. "That is really predicated on the talent you have in the program. So yes, this year we are going to run, but more importantly, we want to win. And we would like to win with a certain style of play and a pace of play that is appealing. "As we get further into the recruiting classes and are able to get further down the line, we will have a more steady turnover of playing the style of ball we will be known for.

But early on, you can only play as fast as your talent will allow." Runnin' Rebel fans know that playing a running style on offense usually starts on the defensive end. "We want to be aggressive defensively to the degree where we make it difficult on teams to run the things that they are comfortable running," Menzies added. "Whether that is in a fullcourt defensive set or half-court situation, we would like to be disruptive to the other team." Mooring and Johnson will be looked upon immediately for both experience and leadership. Mooring, 6-foot-2-inch senior guard from Chicago, Ill., was the only Runnin' Rebel recognized by the Mountain West following the 2016-17 season as he was named third team all-conference. He appeared in 32 games, making 15 starts, and led UNLV in scoring with 12.6 points per game. He was also tops on the team in assists with 4.0 per contest, which ranked second in the league. Mooring was UNLV's best 3-point shooter in makes (58) and by percentage (.372). His assist/turnover ratio of 1.6 ranked fourth in the MW. Johnson, a 5-foot-11-inch senior guard from Waukegan, Ill., sat out the 2016-17 season after transferring to UNLV from Milwaukee. As a junior for the Panthers in 2015-16, he earned second-team All-Horizon League honors after finishing second in the country in assists per game (8.1), while averaging 12.5

30

points and 3.6 rebounds per contest. "Jordan is as pure of a point guard as I've coached," Menzies said. "He knows when he is needed to score, knows how to keep his teammates engaged, and when he needs to utilize their abilities to score. It is a fine line, but I think he has that instinct. "Jovan will have to be able to recognize when he is at the one and when he is at the wing, and he will have to make that determination at a moments notice. If he can do that, he will be the epitome of a combo guard. That's what we are looking to him for. He has a knack for scoring and we don't want to take that away from him. That is something we will be able to lean on him a little bit more for this year." Clyburn, a 6-foot-6-inch junior guard from Detroit, Mich., is another player who brings considerable experience back to the Runnin' Rebels from last season. After transferring from a junior college to UNLV after his freshman year, he played in 32 games for UNLV during the 2016-17 season, making 22 starts. He averaged 7.3 points and 5.3 rebounds per game. He was tops on the team in rebounds with a total of 170. "Kris spent the offseason working on his body and also has started to come out of his shell a little bit in terms of the leadership role we want him to play this year." Menzies said. "He is more vocal in the locker room, more vocal on the floor and is just more comfortable with Division I basketball. "Being just one year removed from high

school last year, even though he was a junior college kid, expectations may have been a little bit more for Kris than they needed to be. His stats were very good so there was a reason for it. But now he has a better feel for the level of physicality and the competition at this level. That experience will be good for him as he looks to be more productive this year." The newcomers that may make the most immediate impact are McCoy and Juiston. McCoy, a 7-foot freshman forward from Chicago, Ill., comes to Las Vegas from Cathedral Catholic High School in San Diego. A consensus five-star recruit, he was rated by ESPN as the nation's sixth-best prospect at one point during his senior year. At CCHS, he averaged 28.6 points, 12.6 rebounds and 5.3 blocks per game. During the summer, he played on the USA Basketball Men's U19 World Cup Team in Egypt. Juiston, a 6-foot-7-inch junior forward from Newark, N.J., led Hutchinson Community College in Kansas to the 2017 NJCAA Division I Championship. The Junior College AllAmerican averaged a double-double, scoring 17.3 points and grabbing 12.1 rebounds per game, while shooting 60.9 percent from the feild as a sophomore. He was named MVP of the national tournament, recording highs of 88 points and 56 rebounds during tournament play. Juiston was the No. 1 junior college prospect in the country and he is Hutchinson's record holder in career rebounds. "Brandon and Shakur are definitely the most celebrated of our new players in terms of media attention on a national level," Menzies said. "They will both help us with rebounding and also scoring - two attributes that should

make us competitive right from the beginning of the season. "They are both guys that can put the ball in the basket on a regular basis and they can pursue rebounds outside of their area. They each possess skill sets that produce and will be beneficial for how we want to play this year." Other returners include Cheickna Dembele, Ben Coupet Jr. and Djordjije Sljivancanin. Dembele, a 6-foot-11-inch sophomore forward, from Mali, Africa, appeared in 28 games for UNLV last season, making 17 starts. He averaged 4.0 ppg and 4.4 rpg, while earning Academic All-Mountain West honors. Coupet Jr., a 6-foot-7-inch sophomore forward from Chicago, Ill., played in 17 games last year. Sljivancanin, a 6-foot-10-inch sophomore forward from Belgrade, Serbia, appeared in 11 games last season. Other newcomers include Tervell Beck, Cheikh Mbacke Diong, Jay Green, Amauri Hardy and Anthony Smith. Beck, a 6-foot-7-inch freshman forward from Cleveland, Ohio, goes by the nickname 'NuNu.' He came to UNLV out of OnPoint Hoops Academy, a prep school in El Reno, Okla. As a senior in high school he averaged 32 points, 12 rebounds and five assists per game, being selected All-Ohio First Team. Diong, a 6-foot-11-inch freshman forward from Senegal, Africa, came to UNLV from Florida Prep Academy in Melbourne. He averaged 14.1 points, 11.0 rebounds and 3.3 blocks per game, while earning Player of the Year and Regional All-Star honors.

Green, a 6-foot-5-inch freshman guard from Sydney, Australia, attended Hillcrest Prep in Phoenix, Ariz. He averaged 24 points, eight rebounds and six assists per game there. A graduate of Mountain Ridge High School in Phoenix in 2015, he earned second team allstate honors in Arizona's big school league (Division I). Hardy, a 6-foot-2-inch freshman guard from Detroit, Mich., graduated from North Farmington High School in Farmington Hills, Mich. He was a four-star recruit and ranked as the No. 22 point guard in his class by ESPN. As a senior, he averaged 29 points, seven rebounds, six assists and six steals per game, while shooting 45 percent on 3-pointers. He was named Associated Press honorable Mention as well as MLive Detroit Dream Team Honorable Mention. He was also a Michigan Mr. Basketball finalist. Smith, a 6-foot-4-inch junior forward from Saacramento, Calif., came to UNLV from Feather River College in Quincy, Calif. He averaged 20.5 points and 8.8 rebounds per game as a sophomore, while making 56.4 percent of his field goals. He received All-Golden Valley Conference honors. Nick Blair and Noah Robotham are both transfers, originally from Las Vegas, who will have to sit out as redshirts this season. Blair is a 6-foot-5-inch forward from Idaho, who will be eligible as a junior in 2018-19, while Robotham, a 6-foot-1-inch guard from Akron, will be eligible as a senior next season. They both attended Bishop Gorman High school.

COACHING STAFF

Marvin Menzies became the 13th full-time head coach in UNLV men's basketball history on April 21, 2016. Menzies, 56, came back to Las Vegas after nine years as the head coach at New Mexico State. After completing his first year leading the Runnin' Rebel program, he brought in a recruiting class for the 2017-18 season that has been ranked as high as No. 12 in the country and includes McDonald's High School All-American Brandon McCoy and National Junior College Player of the Year Shakur Juiston. The 2017-18 squad spent the entire summer together in Las Vegas, something his first UNLV team was unable to do, and achieved a 3.24 team grade point average during that time. Under his direction, New Mexico State was extremely successful making appearances in the postseason each of his last five seasons in Las Cruces, and six of his last seven. Menzies led the Aggies to their fifth straight 20-win season in 201516, and seventh in eight years, as they went 23-11 overall and 13-1 in conference play. When Menzies left NMSU, the Aggies had won 35 straight home conference games, which was the second-longest such streak in the nation. New Mexico State won its second straight outright regularseason Western Athletic Conference Championship in his final season in Las Cruces, which led to a berth in the NIT. From 2012-15, Menzies led his team to four straight WAC Tournament titles and NCAA Tournament berths. His team also won the conference tournament crown and appeared in the NCAA Tournament in 2010. He led the Aggies to the outright regularseason conference title in 2014-15 and a co-championship in 2008. Menzies owns a career record of 209-132 (.613) over 10 seasons as a Division I head coach and he has gone 107-51 (.677) in conference play. In 2015-16, NMSU ranked 10th the nation in scoring defense (63.1 ppg), 11th in field-goal percentage defense (39.2 percent, the school's

best since the 1960-61 season) and fifth in rebound margin (+9.8 per game). Menzies left New Mexico State as the third-winningest coach in school history, ranking only behind Hall of Famer Lou Henson (289152, 16 seasons) and Neil McCarthy (229-114, 12 seasons). He was the fastest to 198 wins among the trio (McCarthy 193 after nine seasons, Henson 173 after nine seasons). His 198 wins was also the most all-time while a member of the WAC. With 103 wins in conference play, he left the league seventh in all-time conference wins and ranked third in winning percentage for conference games at 73.6 percent. Menzies was the Aggies' bench boss in five of their WACrecord six tournament championships, and won more conference tournaments than any other New Mexico State coach. His five total NCAA appearances are eclipsed only by the seven of Henson’s NMSU squads. His four consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances were one short of equaling the longest stretch by the Aggies to the Big Dance. Menzies coached a pair of AP All-Americans at New Mexico State in Pascal Siakam and Daniel Mullings. Siakam, the No. 27 overall pick in the 2016 NBA Draft and the first first-rounder under Menzies, was an honorable mention selection after the 2015-16 season, while Mullings was selected honorable mention following the 2013-14 campaign. Menzies coached Aggies to the All-WAC team 20 times while in Las Cruces, with two WAC Players of the Year, two WAC Freshmen of the Year, five players on the WAC All-Newcomer Team and seven selections to the WAC All-Defensive Team. In November 2014, Forbes named Menzies as one of the Top 25 College Basketball Coaches for the Money, recognizing his winning ways. Menzies’ 2015-16 Aggies were a young squad with only two starters returning and no senior on the team, but found a way to another 20-win season and their conference mark tied for the sixthbest in the history of the league and equaled the 2014-15 team with the best conference record in school history. His team posted a nine-game win streak during the season (matching the 14th-longest in school history) and also had a 12-game win streak against WAC opponents. Siakam was the unanimous choice for WAC Player of the Year and joined Ian Baker as first team All-WAC. The duo was also named to the WAC All-Defensive Team and to the WAC All-Tournament Team. Siakam, who became the school’s seventh All-American, was also selected all-district by the NABC and the USBWA after leading the WAC in scoring (20.3 ppg), rebounding (11.6 rpg) and blocked shots (2.24 bpg). He scored the second-most points in a season in school history (690) and had the third-most rebounds in Aggie history (396). Siakam was also selected the WAC Player of the Week an unprecedented five times.

COACHING STAFF Baker, a junior and the upperclassman on the team, moved into seventh on all three career lists for 3-point field goals, hitting 137-of-337 for a 40.7 percentage. After winning the WAC's regular-season championship, the Aggies fell on a buzzer-beating 3-pointer in the WAC Tournament title game and advanced to the National Invitation Tournament for the first time since 2000. New Mexico State lost a heartbreaking 58-56 decision at Saint Mary’s in first round play on two free throws with two seconds to play. Menzies’ 2014-15 Aggies were hit hard by the injury bug to start the year, but rebounded during the season to post a 23-11 season, a 13-1 WAC record and a WAC Championship. It was the fourth straight 20-win season for New Mexico State. The 13-1 (.928) WAC mark was the best conference record in school history and tied for the sixth-best seasonal record in the history of the league. Total domination of the conference during the 2014-15 season earned Menzies the WAC's Don Haskins Coach of the Year Award. The Aggies tallied 13 straight victories (Jan. 22 to March 14) in the run to the title, the third-longest winning streak in program history and the longest win streak in the Menzies era. New Mexico State won 19 of its last 22 games in 2014-15. Defense was the calling card of the team, as New Mexico State led the WAC and ranked 21st nationally by allowing only 59.8 points a game. The Aggies held 12 opponents to less than 50 points, with three opponents held to under 40 points. Only nine opponents had been held that low since 1950. Four Aggies were named to the All-WAC team, with Mullings and Siakam named first team. Tshilidzi Nephawe and Remi Barry were chosen second team. Siakam was the Freshman of the Year and named to the All-Newcomer and All-Defensive Teams. Mullings was also on the All-Defensive Team. Nephawe earned MVP honors at the WAC Tournament and was joined on the All-Tournament Team by Barry after the Aggies downed Seattle 80-61 in the tourney final. The Aggies earned their fourth straight NCAA Tournament appearance, but lost to No. 10/11 Kansas in Omaha, Neb. Menzies' senior laden squad set records as Mullings and Nephawe teamed for four New Mexico State career highs. Mullings posted career marks in steals (249), free throws (463) and free throw attempts (463), while Nephawe set a new mark for career games played (136). The 2013-14 season saw the Aggies become the first men’s team to ever win the WAC Tournament three consecutive times on their way to a 26-10 overall record. In the Aggies third straight NCAA Tournament appearance, New Mexico State suffered a heartbreaking 73-69 overtime loss to San Diego State. Led by Mullings, the WAC Player of the Year and first-team AllWAC performer, and Nephawe, named second team All-WAC, the Aggies battled to get to the WAC title game where they handed Idaho a 77-55 defeat. Sim Bhullar was named tournament MVP for the second straight season, becoming just the second player to take that award in consecutive seasons. The Aggies' 20th NCAA Tournament appearance saw No. 13 Saint Louis take a 64-44 win. Menzies and New Mexico State picked up their second consecutive WAC Tournament Championship and NCAA appearance in 2012-13 on the way to a 24-11 record, as he coached three to All-WAC status: Bandja Sy (first team), Mullings (second team), Bhullar (third team and newcomer), who was also WAC Freshman of the Year. Bhullar earned WAC Tournament MVP honors, and he was the first freshman to garner the honor since Shawn Bradley in 1991. Mullings was also a member of the WAC All-Tournament Team.

The Aggies broke a pair of school records in 2012-13; blocked shots in a season (193) and field-goal percentage in a game (68.6 percent vs. UTSA). New Mexico State also tied a program record with 12 blocked shots at UTSA. The Aggie defense was tough all season and held teams to 60 points or less 16 times in 2012-13. Menzies piloted that Aggies to 12 straight wins (Jan. 3 to Feb. 16). It was the longest streak since the 2006-07 season. New Mexico State finished the season winning 18 of 21 games. Menzies directed New Mexico State to its second conference tournament title in three years in 2012 with a 25-point win over Louisiana Tech, 82-57, in the championship game. The Aggies also made their 19th NCAA Tournament appearance in school history and faced No. 17 Indiana. After a 79-66 loss to the Hoosiers, the Aggies finished the season with a 26-10 overall record. The 26 wins were the most since the 1992-93 season, and it was the third 20-win season of Menzies’ tenure. Menzies recorded his 100th career victory in the quarterfinals of the 2012 WAC Tournament. The Aggies had four all-conference selections in 2012; Wendell McKines (first team), Hernst Laroche (second team), Hamidu Rahman (honorable mention) and Mullings (newcomer). The 2011-12 season was very successful for the Aggies. For the first time in school history, New Mexico State had three 1,000point scorers in the same season (McKines, Laroche and Rahman). McKines also became just the second player in program history with 1,000-career points and 1,000-career rebounds. He was only the second active player in the NCAA to achieve the feat in 2011-12 and 12th player in WAC history. The Aggies started the season with a 4-0 record, which was only the third 4-0 start since 1992-93. New Mexico State posted a pair of rivalry wins in the stretch including a 62-53 win over New Mexico (Nov. 16) in the Pit for the first time since Dec. 15, 2002. In WAC play, New

COACHING STAFF Before his time at UNLV, Menzies worked at Southern California for a season as an assistant coach (2003-04) under Henry Bibby. In only one year with the Trojans, he assisted in producing a No. 3-ranked recruiting class. Menzies had a four-year tenure at San Diego State (1999-03). He was the leading recruiter for the Aztecs and Steve Fisher, who won the National Championship in 1989 at Michigan. Menzies helped to guide the Aztecs to the postseason in back-to-back years (2002-03) for the first time since 1975-76. At San Diego State, Menzies signed a pair of nationally ranked recruiting classes in 2001 (top 25) and 2000 (top 40) along with the program’s first-ever McDonald’s All-American. Menzies began his collegiate career at Santa Monica (Calif.) College as an assistant coach under John McMullen. Menzies spent six seasons as an assistant and associate head coach (1991-94, 1995-96 and 1997-99) there. He was the team’s head coach for a year (in 199495) and guided the Corsairs to a 24-8 record. Menzies led Santa Monica to the Western States Conference title while he earned conference coach of the year honors. With Menzies on the staff, the program was a collective 181-46. During his tenure, 38 players went on to NCAA schools. In 1996, the Corsairs produced a school-record 27-game winning streak and a school-best 32-2 finish. Menzies recruited the top three scorers in the school’s history. Between his time at Santa Monica, he was as an assistant coach at Cal State Sacramento (1996-97). He coached under Don Newman as the program transitioned from Division II to Division I. Beginning his coaching career at his prep alma mater, Hamilton High School in Los Angeles, Calif., Menzies was an assistant coach for eight years. A California native, Menzies was a letterwinner in three sports at Hamilton.

Mexico State defeated Utah State, 80-69, (Feb. 11) for the first time in Logan, Utah, since Feb. 11, 2006. Menzies also watched Mullings, as a freshman, record a tripledouble against Hawai’i (Feb. 23). Mullings’ performance was only the third triple-double in Aggie history as he had 28 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists. The Crimson and White fought through injuries to finish third in the WAC (9-7) with a 16-17 overall record in 2010-11. The Aggies set a school record with a 12-game WAC home win streak that dated back to the 2009-10 season. Menzies won his 75th career game in 2010-11 and was the second fastest to reach 70 wins behind Lou Henson. In the 2009-10 season, New Mexico State won its second WAC Tournament crown in school history with a 69-63 win over Utah State in the title game. With the victory, Menzies directed the Aggies to their first trip to the NCAA Tournament since 2007. As a No. 12 seed in the Midwest Regional, New Mexico State faced No. 5 seed Michigan State, in Spokane, Wash. In the first meeting between the programs, the Aggies’ upset bid over Michigan State fell short, 70-67. The Aggies registered the 24th 20-win season in school history in 2009-10 with a 22-12 mark. Menzies became only the second coach in program history to win 60 games in his first three seasons. With one of the youngest teams in the country in 2008-09, Menzies led New Mexico State to a 17-15 record and a third-place showing in the WAC. The Aggies not only had the conference’s leading scorer in guard Jahmar Young but also the top rebounder in McKines. Young was awarded a first team All-WAC selection and was the first sophomore to earn the accolade at New Mexico State. The Aggies were just seconds away from their third consecutive WAC Tournament title game, but they lost a heartbreaker to Utah State, 71-70, in the tournament semifinals. In his first year, Menzies led the Aggies to their first regular season WAC title in 2007-08. New Mexico State was co-champions after posting a 12-4 league record. Menzies also directed the Aggies to their second consecutive appearance in the WAC Tournament title game. Nationally, the Aggies ranked in the top 25 in three statistical team categories including rebounding margin. New Mexico State was second in the country, only trailing North Carolina, with an advantage of 8.9 rebounds per game. Making their second consecutive appearance in the WAC Tournament title game in 2008, the Aggies (21-14) just narrowly missed the NCAA Tournament after falling in triple overtime to Boise State in one of the most exciting conference championship games of the season. Menzies guided the Aggies to their 23rd 20-plus win season in the program’s history, which was a challenge when the schedule included games at Duke, Louisville and against Texas and West Virginia. He was also the winningest first-year head coach in Aggie history. The 200708 edition was a veteran team with five seniors. Guard/forward Justin Hawkins became the Aggies’ first two-time, first team All-WAC selection. Menzies became the 24th coach in the history of Aggie basketball on June 29, 2007, after spending two seasons as an assistant coach under Rick Pitino at Louisville. Considered one of the best recruiters in the country, Menzies has landed some of the nation’s top recruiting classes. In his last season at Louisville, the Cardinals finished 24-10, reached the second round of the NCAA Tournament and were No. 20 in the final USA Today/ESPN Men’s Basketball Coaches Top 25 Poll (2006-07). Prior to joining the Cardinals’ staff, Menzies spent one year at UNLV under Lon Kruger (2004-05). With the Runnin' Rebels, Menzies helped sign an incoming class that was rated fourth in the nation.

He was named one of the Top 25 Assistant Coach Recruiters at the midmajor level by a panel of national media, scouts and former coaches, and was No. 3 in 2011 on the Basketball Times list of the Top 50 "Low to Mid-Major Assistant Coaches." Brown has been an assistant coach at the Division I level for the past 18 years, having also spent time at Cal State Northridge (1999-01), USC (2001-05) and Iowa State (2005-06).

GAMEDAY NEW LIGHTS

FIREWORKS

GAMEDAY

The Runnin’ Rebels have arguably the best pregame show in all of college basketball. Originally, just swirling spot lights, a loud pep band and excitable cheerleaders, the pregame show at the Thomas & Mack Center has evolved through the years. The Runnin’ Rebels get the red-carpet treatment as the team is introduced. The carpet is rolled out onto the floor, while strobe lights topped off by a video and fireworks show get the place rockin’. The exhibition uses 60 pyrotechnic effects, 24 strobe lights, 36 other lights, takes four to five hours to set up and a crew of seven to pull it off at game time.

DICK CALVERT

The famous Runnin’ Rebel pregame show at the Thomas & Mack Center during UNLV men’s basketball games has been enhanced with help from Production Resource Group. The enhancements coincided with the arena’s 30th anniversary several seasons ago. The company that started the basketball entrance show back in 1983 when the Thomas & Mack Center opened, Advanced Entertainment Services, is back again this year to direct, create and control all of the elements that have made Runnin’ Rebel introductions special for years. However, recently the facility and AES added 12 PRG Bad Boys (lighting fixtures) to the existing light and fireworks show. The Bad Boy was voted Entertainment Product of the Year in 2010 for not only being the brightest professional lighting fixture with the most features, but also because it is the greenest (lowest power consumption and lowest release of BTU’s) in the entertainment industry. The arena and PRG have also enhanced the audio for games by adding eight new Outline GTO Subs. These GTO subs are located underneath the lower Mezzanine seats to enhance the audio experience for fans. Two 20k Barco projectors have also been added and project on The Rebellion, UNLV’s student section.

PEP BAND

Numbering more than 80 strong, the UNLV Pep Band, which began in its present form in 1978, is a big part of Runnin’ Rebel basketball. Nothing gets the crowd on its feet at the Thomas and Mack Center faster than the sounds of “Win with the Rebels” and “Viva Las Vegas.” The UNLV Pep Band, directed by Tony LaBounty, also performs at other university-related events as well as select convention appearances.

VOICE OF THE REBELS

A familiar sound to UNLV fans of all ages, Dick Calvert, the "Voice of the Rebels," is in 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 for the Mountain West Conference, Pac-12 Conference, West Coast Conference and Western Athletic Conference basketball tournaments, the Las Vegas Bowl, the NBA Vegas Summer League, the FIBA Americas tournament, the USA Basketball Senior Men's National Team and the Las Vegas 51s AAA Professional Baseball Club. Additionally, the longtime university staffer works many MW Championships hosted by UNLV and is the official starter for a number of university and NCAA golf tournaments. In fact, Calvert annually works over 200 local events. He was inducted into the Southern Nevada Sports Hall of Fame in June 2010 and is extremely proud of having worked for every athletics director in UNLV history. 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. Calvert has had the privilege of working in three World Cups. 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 and greatgrandparents of seven.

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

GAMEDAY CHEER AND DANCE

Two of the nation’s best-known spirit squads, the UNLV Cheerleaders and the UNLV Dance Team (Rebel Girls) are fixtures at Runnin’ Rebel basketball games. The teams perform at various UNLV Athletics events, conventions and shows, and volunteer their time to appear at numerous events throughout the Las Vegas community. The cheerleaders also devote time to instructing the UNLV Rebel Starzz - a group of young dancers ages 3-16 that performs at games throughout the year.

TOP-25 NATIONAL ATTENDANCE

For six straight years, UNLV’s attendance ranked in the top 25 in the country and first or second in the West (states of Washington, Oregon, California, Arizona, Nevada). UNLV's attendance ranked 31st in the nation in 2014-15 and 34th in 2015-16, so the Runnin' Rebel crowds at the Thomas & Mack Center have been in the top 25 in six of the last nine seasons.

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.

GAMEDAY

THE REBELLION

Las Vegas' newest headliner, “The Rebellion” came on to the scene during the 2011-12 season. Over the previous six seasons, the student section at UNLV’s Thomas & Mack Center had grown into one of the largest student sections in the West. But six years ago, the birth of “The Rebellion” put the student section on the national scene. With a Las Vegas-theme to its signs and swagger as well as the creation of "Mozilla" (a giant fat head of former Runnin’ Rebel Mike Moser that included a torso and movable arms with a 20-foot reach), “The Rebellion” positioned itself as one of the most creative and entertaining student sections in the nation. (The "Mozilla" concept has since been copied by colleges throughout the nation.) Fans have come to expect the unexpected from the trend-setting Rebellion. But one thing is for certain, opponents at the Thomas & Mack Center certainly “Fear The ‘Stache.” Other props that have become well-known are "A-Beast" (Anthony Bennett), "Khem Kong" (Khem Birch) and 3-D Fatheads. 79


PREGAME SHOW

GAMEDAY

By Mark Wallington UNLV Athletics Communications “AND NOW...” Two words that start it all: clear floor ... drop lights ... cue band ... start dancers ... roll fireworks ... and get ready for the greatest pregame show in all of college basketball. The Voice of the Rebels takes everyone in the Thomas & Mack Center through 2 minutes and 40 seconds of excitement that gets the players introduced and the crowd on its feet. Public address announcer Dick Calvert is your host for the spectacular and has been since its inception in the mid-1970s. Originally, the pregame show was just swirling spot lights, a loud pep band and excitable cheerleaders getting things rolling during player introductions. “We wanted to add some pizzazz, give it a touch of Vegas,” said Dominic Clark, UNLV sports information director at the time. “When we saw the affect it had on spectators and visiting teams, we lengthened it.” As the team became more known, so did too, its university’s pregame show. Fans came earlier. Reporters called. Photographers set up to capture the spectacle on film. All of this was before the Thomas & Mack Center when the Rebels were running the floor of the Las Vegas Convention Center. “It was a natural progression for a team that was becoming big time,” said Calvert. “Basketball people across the country were talking about the team in the desert.” Apparently the UNLV athletic brain trust had to wing it because there was nothing else like it in sports. “We were pioneers,” said Clark. “No one else had anything so elaborate and it just continued to expand.” The pregame show continued to expand and arouse the Thomas & Mack Center faithful. At the same time, a great affect on the visiting team became quite noticeable as well. “The other teams were intimidated by it all,” said

The Runnin’ Rebels have enjoyed the red carpet treatment since moving to the Thomas & Mack Center in 1983.

Clark. “Sometimes they were shell shocked even after the game started and wouldn’t score a point for 10 minutes while the Rebels ran up and down the floor. A visiting coach once told Sports Illustrated that the pregame show was worth 10 points to UNLV.” The pregame show has grown so big and boisterous that visiting teams often duck it completely. “Teams coming in here for the first time would get caught by surprise,” Calvert said. “But coaches in the conference got smart and started pulling their teams off the court so they wouldn’t get intimidated. (former Georgetown coach) John Thompson learned always to take his team out.” The Runnin’ Rebels move into their state-ofthe-art arena allowed for more additions to the show. Calvert now announced the rolling out of the red carpet and the light show became more intricate with strobe effects. And things got really wild with the introduction of fireworks. Several years later, former TMC director of

operations Mike Enoch decided it was time to go all out. He worked with Matt Dillingham of Advanced Entertainment Services on developing an indoor pyrotechnic light show and in 1986 the sparks really flew. Dillingham, who is the president of the company, has since worked with numerous professional teams in the NBA and NHL but said none can duplicate the excitement and breadth of the Rebels’ show. “A lot of professional teams try to duplicate what UNLV does but don’t get close to it,” Dillingham said. “I know a lot of people who have come to games just to see the pregame show.” The exhibition uses 60 pyrotechnic effects, 24 strobe lights, 48 other lights, takes four to five hours to set up and a crew of seven to pull it off at game time. Great care is taken to head off any safety problems. The basketball floor is cleared except for the cheerleaders and they stand in a protected area in the middle of the court. Plus, Dillingham said all fireworks are of the indoor variety, meaning they’re not toxic. New several seasons ago, Production Resource Group got involved and added powerful new lights and projectors enhancing the overall show. After gaining a reputation in the West, the show was first broadcast in its entirety during a nationally televised game in the late-1980s.


MENDENHALL CENTER SPARKLING FACILITY OPENED ITS DOORS DURING 2011-12 SEASON

UNLV's new state-of-the-art basketball practice facility has a total of 38,000 square feet of space on three levels.

"Basketball has been a major `friend raiser' for UNLV for years," said former UNLV President Neal Smatresk. "In this fiscally challenging time for UNLV, we could not have done this without this generous gift. This facility will help take the Runnin' Rebel basketball program to the next

level of success and will build an enduring legacy for our fans." The facility was built entirely through the private sector and was gifted to the university.

In 2010, UNLV announced a plan by a group of donors to construct a new, state-of-the-art basketball practice facility on its campus. The group, led by Bob Mendenhall, also included Maury Gallagher, Bill Paulos, Bill Wortman and Hope Anstett. They saw the need for a new facility and together created a 501.c.3 corporation that built the new Mendenhall Center through Mendenhall's construction company. A groundbreaking ceremony was held on Oct. 20, 2010, and the facility opened for use by the Runnin' Rebels during the 2011-12 season. The Mendenhall Center is attached to the south side of the Cox Pavilion and has a total of 38,000 square feet of space on three levels. Included are two basketball courts, an academic area as well as a film room, locker rooms, athletic training, strength and conditioning and equipment areas. "This is a great day for our athletics program as well as our university," former UNLV Athletics Director Jim Livengood said when the project was announced. "We are launching a project that will be a major asset to UNLV. The generosity of our donors is a testament to the excitement and enthusiasm that exists in this city and with our athletics program."


TARKANIAN COURT winning the national championship in 1990 in a 103-73 runaway over Duke - the highest margin of victory in NCAA tournament championship game history. A member of the UNLV Athletics Hall of Fame, Tarkanian, known to fans as the towel-chewing "Tark the Shark," never had a losing season while at UNLV. At UNLV, Tarkanian coached 13 players recognized as All-Americans a total of 20 times. He won 11 regularseason conference championships, seven conference tournament titles and made 12 NCAA Tournament appearances, including a string of nine straight. He was an eighttime conference coach of the year and was named UPI's National Coach of the Year in 1983. In the fall of 2013, Tarkanian was enshrined in the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame becoming the first player or coach from UNLV to be inducted. Then, on Oct. 30, 2013, a statue outside of the Thomas & Mack Center was dedicated as part of The Jerry Tarkanian Legacy Project, which exists to honor the career and contributions of Coach Tarkanian to the game of basketball, UNLV, and Southern Nevada. The project covered the funding of the design,

On Nov. 26, 2005, prior to the start of the game against Nevada, Reno, the court at the Thomas & Mack Center was named “Tarkanian Court.” During 19 years as UNLV's head basketball coach (1973-1992), Jerry Tarkanian posted a 509-105 (.829) record with the Runnin’ Rebels. Tarkanian took four teams to the NCAA Final Four,

NEW VISUAL EQUIPMENT In September of 2008, the Thomas & Mack Center received a complete visual equipment overhaul. As part of the partnership between UNLV and ISP Sports (now known as IMG College), the arena received upgraded equipment, which was part of the $3.1 million in total upgrades to UNLV Athletics' facilities. The new equipment at the TMC included a centerhung scoreboard and video display, which replaced Redd Vision. The old equipment had been in place since 1995. Also, the new equipment included partial ring beam displays and a new scorer's table display. The equipment has greatly enhanced the fan experience and presentation during events at the facility and has increased the visibility of UNLV's sponsors and advertisers. The Thomas & Mack Center, now in its 35th year of existence, has been ranked as high as the No. 2-grossing facility in the world.

Si Redd was one of gaming’s great characters and also one of the most well-known, knowledgeable people on the subject of coin operated devices. Known as the ‘‘King of the Slot Machine,’’ Si got his start in 1930 with a Bally pinball machine. Almost half a century later, he developed video poker, and went on to found what would become one of the most important, profitable businesses in the gaming world, International Game Technology. The UNLV men’s basketball offices underwent another minor renovation in 2004, which was made possible by the former Runnin’ Rebel Basketball Club. It

The offices, dubbed the ‘‘Marilyn and Si Redd Basketball Offices’’ were dedicated in a ribbon cutting ceremony on Sept. 1, 1993. The completion of the Marilyn and Si Redd Basketball Offices put the finishing touches on a $4 million renovation at the Thomas & Mack Center, which brought about increased food services, restroom and handicapped facilities, along with a new look. ‘‘The pride we have felt with the performances of the Rebels - both men and women - made us believe that it was necessary to provide the best facilities possible for

At that point, he decided to follow his love of sports and became the play-by-play voice of the Salinas Spurs baseball team in the California League. After working for two years in Single-A ball, (Salinas and the Palm Springs Angels), Sandler was hired as the play-by-play broadcaster for the Triple-A Las Vegas Stars prior to the 1993 season. During his seven-year stint as "The Voice of the Stars," Sandler quickly established himself as one of the bright young sportscasters in the country.

IN MEMORY OF "GONDO" Referred to fondly in the sports world simply as "Gondo," former UNLV men's basketball star, NBA player and longtime radio and TV announcer Glen Gondrezick will be remembered first and foremost as a true Runnin' Rebel. Gondrezick died in April of 2009 at the age of 53. He had undergone a heart transplant in Sept. of 2008. Gondrezick was one of Jerry Tarkanian's first recruits at UNLV and lettered from 1973-77. He is the 17th-leading scorer in UNLV basketball history with 1,311 points and played a major role in the Runnin' Rebels advancing to their first NCAA Final Four in 1977. Gondrezick's determination and hustle made him an instant fan favorite, and his style of play almost always resulted in scrambles on the floor and collisions with the scorer's table while chasing down loose balls. His jersey number 25 was retired in a halftime ceremony at the Runnin' Rebels game against UCLA at the Thomas & Mack Center on Dec. 27, 1997. Gondrezick averaged 11.4 points per game during his four seasons in Las Vegas. He also is ninth (831) on the Runnin' Rebel career rebounds list. A 1977 honorable mention All-American and 1987 inductee into the Rebel Athletics Hall of Fame, he was a second round NBA draft pick and spent six seasons in the pro league - two (1977-79) with the New York Knicks and four (1979-83) with the Denver Nuggets. He averaged 5.8 points, 4.5 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game over his career. Gondrezick would later return to UNLV, spending 17 seasons as a radio and television analyst for his alma mater.

UNLV HAS WON FOUR OF FIVE GOVERNOR'S SERIES MATCHUPS Since the debut of the Governor’s Series presented by NV Energy and Barrick Gold in 2012, the UNLV Athletics Department has won four of the five all-encompassing competitions with Nevada, Reno. The most recent result saw the teams tie for the first time with 24 points each. The Wolf Pack was awarded the trophy by virtue of possessing the famed Fremont Cannon, which serves as the tiebreaker and is property of the side that wins the annual football game between the schools. The Rebels won the 2015-16 Governor’s Series by the final score of 28.5-19.5; took the 2014-15 competition 27-21; was victorious 30-18 in 2013-14; and dominated the inaugural year by the score of 37.5-10.5. UNLV Athletics also announced that Rebel women’s soccer player Lily Sender was selected as the 2016-17 season’s Bill Ireland Award winner. The honor is given annually to a student-athlete who shines brightest in their respective sport while competing against the Wolf Pack. The Ireland honoree, selected through a vote by members of the UNLV Athletics Communications Office, must come from a Rebel team that won its competition vs. the Wolf Pack during the year, must have made a significant impact on that outcome and also be in good academic standing. Sender, a native of Honolulu, Hawaii, turned in her best performance of the year in the regular-season finale in Reno when she netted the first Rebel hat trick since 2010 in a 4-1 victory over the Wolf Pack on Oct. 28, 2016. Her trio of goals gave the Rebels a 3-0 lead early in the second half, securing their first Mountain West Regular Season Championship since 2007. 85

MOUNTAIN WEST

OPPONENTS

THIS IS THE MOUNTAIN WEST

The Mountain West 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 Division I intercollegiate athletic conference� The split from a 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� Three of the MW’s eight original members have been conference rivals since the 1960s (New Mexico, Wyoming and Colorado State), while San Diego State (1978) and Air Force (1980) were longtime members as well� UNLV entered the fold in 1996 and the Rebels continued as one of the original eight institutions that formed the MW in 1999� With conference realignment sweeping the nation in recent years, the MW has been proactive in addressing membership changes� Boise State joined the Mountain West in 2011, followed by Fresno State and Nevada, Reno in 2012� That’s the same year that the University of Hawai‘i became a football-only member of the Conference� On July 1, 2013, the Mountain West further expanded when San Jose State and Utah State joined, bringing to 11 the number of full-time member institutions and 12 football-playing members� The Mountain West 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 five MW institutions (Air Force, Boise State, Colorado State, New Mexico and Utah State)� The high plains of Wyoming (elevation 7,220 feet – the highest Division I campus in the nation) contrast with the desert cities of Las Vegas and Reno, home to UNLV and Nevada, Reno, respectively, while Fresno State, San Diego State and San Jose State add a West Coast influence with their locations in Central, Southern and Northern California� The inclusion of the Hawai‘i football program extends the Mountain West footprint to the beautiful islands in the Pacific Ocean� Mountain West members have participated in 84 bowl games under the league umbrella, including four appearances in BCS games and one CFP game� The MW has earned 80 postseason bids in men’s basketball, with five Sweet 16 appearances among 44 NCAA Tournament slots, as well as three NIT Final Four berths� MW women’s basketball has tallied 75 postseason slots, including 36 NCAA bids, five Sweet 16 appearances and one Elite Eight berth since 2000� Wyoming took the MW’s first WNIT championship in 2007 with a win over Wisconsin� In women’s volleyball, the MW has had 42 NCAA bids with nine Sweet 16 berths and one Elite Eight appearance� The MW has produced 1,059 All-America selections among its 18 sponsored sports (men’s swimming was discontinued as a Conference sport following the 2010-11 season) in the last 18 years, including a league-record 103 AllAmerica honorees in 2016-17� A total of 190 MW student-athletes have also earned Academic All-America accolades in that span� The Mountain West has sent at least 25 teams to NCAA postseason events in each of the past 18 years, capturing four team national championships and producing 43 individual national champions�

When San Diego State’s Stephen Strasburg was taken with the top pick in the 2009 MLB Draft, the Mountain West became 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.

Former Rebel All-American and Hogan Award winner Ryan Moore became the only MW individual national champion in men's golf when he won the 2004 NCAA golf title.

2016-17 SEASON NOTES at New Mexico State where he compiled a 198-111 (.641) record ... He had previously served as an assistant coach at UNLV during the 2004-05 season under Lon Kruger ... Menzies won his 200th career game Nov. 19, 2016, vs. Cal State Fullerton (during his first season as UNLV's head coach).

SOLID START

The Runnin' Rebels opened the 2016-17 season with six straight home games at the Thomas & Mack Center ... UNLV went 4-2 over that stretch and finished the regular season with a 9-9 record at the TMC ... UNLV went 2-11 away from home during the 201617 season, including 2-9 in true road games.

MORGAN SUFFERED SEASON-ENDING INJURY

Junior forward Dwayne Morgan was leading the team in rebounding (7.3 rpg), but missed the season's final 23 games because of injury.

Jovan Mooring and Coach Marvin Menzies

2016-17 SEASON

The Runnin' Rebels finished the 2016-17 season with an overall record of 11-21 after falling to San Diego State in the Mountain West Tournament's First Round ... UNLV finished tied for 10th in the Mountain West regular-season standings with a 4-14 mark in conference play ... It was head coach Marvin Menzies first season leading the program ... UNLV was led in scoring by junior guard Jovan Mooring (12.6 ppg) ... Mooring also led the team in assists (4.0 apg) and was second in the Mountain West ... A total of four Runnin' Rebels averaged double figures in points - the other three: senior forward Tyrell Green (11.7), senior forward Christian Jones (10.6) and sophomore guard Jalen Poyser (10.4) ... Jones led the team in rebounding (6.8 rpg) ... Mooring was selected third team AllMountain West by both the coaches and the media.

2016-17 REVIEW

MENZIES FIRST SEASON BACK AT UNLV

The 2016-17 season was UNLV head coach Marvin Menzies' first leading the Runnin' Rebel program ... He spent the previous nine years as head coach

MANY NEWCOMERS

The 2016-17 Runnin' Rebels had 12 newcomers on the roster ... Only three players returned from the 2015-16 squad.

ALL-MOUNTAIN WEST

UNLV men's basketball junior guard Jovan Mooring was selected Third Team All-Mountain West as voted on by the league's 11 head coaches ... He was also a third-team selection by the media ... For league-only games, Mooring led the conference in assists with 4.7 per game ... He was also 13th in scoring with 15.1 points per contest ... He ranked third in the MW in steals with 1.5 spg, fourth in assist/turnover ratio at 1.7 per game, sixth in 3-pointers made with 2.3 per game, seventh in minutes played at 34.5 per game and ninth in 3-point field-goal percentage (.380).

"3-POINT GOAL..." - 1,006 STRAIGHT GAMES

UNLV and Kentucky traded off during the 2016-17 season owning the NCAA record for most consecutive games scoring at least one 3-pointer ... Since the 3-point field goal was adopted by the NCAA in 198687, UNLV has converted at least one 3-pointer in all 1,006 games played. Kentucky has made at least one 3-pointer in 1,013 straight games, which is the NCAA record ... UNLV has made a 3-pointer in every game it has played since the rule was adopted by the NCAA, while Kentucky’s streak is only consecutive games (The Wildcats had a game early on where they didn’t make a 3-pointer).

Christian Jones and celebrate life ... For additional information, visit www.coachesvscancer.org

TEAM EFFORT

UNLV has spread its scoring around during the 201617 season ... In its 32 games, the Runnin’ Rebels had at least four players score in double figures 12 times, while they have had at least five in double figures six times and six in double digits on two occasions.

DIFFERENT LEADERS

In UNLV’s 32 games during 2016-17, it had seven different players lead the team in scoring and eight different guys lead in rebounding.

MISSING TIME

During the course of 2016-17, UNLV had six players miss time because of injury or illness: (Dwayne Morgan, Cheickna Dembele, Christian Jones, Uche Ofoegbu, Kris Clyburn and Troy Baxter Jr.)

ROUND

Shawn Marion was the ninth overall pick by the Phoenix Suns in the 1999 NBA Draft in Washington, D.C. He has played for five NBA franchises and became the first former Runnin' Rebel player since 1972 to win a NBA Championship as his Dallas Mavericks won the title in 2011. Former long-time Runnin' Rebel assistant coach Tim Grgurich also earned a NBA ring that year as he was a coach with the Mavs.

Anthony started for the Heat in the 2011 NBA Finals, who along with Marion (Dallas) made up two of the starting 10 in the league's signature event. Anthony then won a NBA championship of his own in 2012 with Miami. He earned his second ring as the Heat won again in 2013.

NOTEBOOK UNLV MEN'S BASKETBALL - 60TH YEAR: The 2017-18 year will mark the 60th season of Runnin’ Rebel basketball at UNLV. Since the program’s inception in 1958-59, the Runnin’ Rebels have posted an all-time record of 1,251-540 (.699). In 1969-70, UNLV made the move to Division I and has since posted a record of 1,064-436 (.709) while competing at that level. In addition, UNLV has an all-time mark of 1,205-517 (.700) against Division I competition. FIFTH-WINNINGEST PROGRAM EVER: With an all-time record of 1,225-530 (.698) against four-year American institutions, UNLV ranks as the fifth-winningest program by percentage in NCAA Division I history (min. 25 years in Div. I). Kentucky’s record of 2,237-688-1 (.765) places the Wildcats as the all-time leader. SCHOOL YEARS RECORD PCT.

The Runnin' Rebels came in at No. 8 on the list, which ranked 300 programs using a numerical method. UNLV finished with 239 total points, which were accumulated by winning 19 conference titles (nine regular-season and 10 tournament), having five 30-win seasons, 18 postseason trips (11 NCAA, seven NIT), three No. 1 NCAA Tournament seeds, six Sweet 16 appearances, three Final Fours, winning the 1990 National Championship, 24 NCAA Tournament wins, having five All-Americans and five NBA top-10 picks. The 1984-85 season was selected as a starting point because that is the year when the NCAA Tournament expanded to 64 teams, making it the first time a national champion had to win six tournament games to cut down the nets. According to ESPN.com, that season was also the start of the fairest inclusion in the NCAA Tournament since before that season, even the best conferences got only one team in the field. And with the introduction of the 3-point line in 1985-86, ESPN.com said the previous 24 seasons could be considered the most modern era of college basketball up until the time the list was released. LAST SEASON: The Runnin' Rebels finished the 2016-17 season with an overall record of 11-21 after falling to San Diego State in the Mountain West Tournament's First Round ... UNLV finished tied for 10th in the Mountain West regular-season standings with a 4-14 mark in conference play ... It was head coach Marvin Menzies first season leading the program ... UNLV was led in scoring by junior guard Jovan Mooring (12.6 ppg) ... Mooring also led the team in assists (4.0 apg) and was second in the Mountain West ... A total of four Runnin' Rebels averaged double figures in points - the other three: senior forward Tyrell Green (11.7), senior forward Christian Jones (10.6) and sophomore guard Jalen Poyser (10.4) ... Jones led the team in rebounding (6.8 rpg) ... Mooring was selected third team All-Mountain West by both the coaches and the media. HIGH ATTENDANCE MARKS: The 2012-13 season saw the largest Thomas & Mack Center crowds in 22 years. The average of 15,729 over 18 regular-season home games was the program's highest average since 1990-91 ... UNLV’s 2013-14 attendance ranked 22nd in the country (2nd in the West: states of Washington, Oregon, California, Arizona, Nevada) ... In six of the last nine years, the program has found itself among the nation's top 25 in home attendance ... The Runnin' Rebels were 31st in the country in home attendance during the 2014-15 season, 34th in 2015-16 and 39th in 2016-17 ... UNLV's home crowds improved by an average of 1,171 fans per game from 2011-12 to 2012-13 ... The Runnin' Rebels came in at No. 17 in the country in 2011-12, while in 2012-13 they were No. 14 ... The 2012-13 season also saw an increase of 1,943 fans per game from two seasons prior (2010-11) when UNLV ranked 23rd in the country in home attendance.

AGAINST THE CONFERENCE: The Runnin’ Rebels are the only Mountain West school to have a .500-or-better record against every other conference member. UNLV leads the all-time series’ with Air Force (35-13), Boise State (7-7), Colorado State (37-16), Fresno State (30-12), Nevada, Reno (59-25), New Mexico (33-23), San Diego State (35-32), San José State (35-6), Utah State (32-5) and Wyoming (37-18). Additionally, compared to the other schools in the conference, UNLV has the best all-time winning percentage on its home court. UNLV is 467-111 (.808) all-time at the Thomas & Mack Center.

UNLV has an all-time record of 33-19 (.635) in 20 appearances in the NCAA Tournament (Division I). UNLV's most recent appearance came in 2013, which was its fourth straight appearance in the Big Dance and sixth overall in the previous seven years.

A WINNING PROGRAM: UNLV has finished the season with a winning percentage above .500, 54 times in its 59-year history. RUNNIN' REBELS IN THE NBA DRAFT: Over the last 20 seasons, the UNLV program has had four players drafted with lottery picks in the annual NBA Draft. Anthony Bennett was selected No. 1 overall in the 2013 NBA Draft, becoming the second UNLV player to be the top selection (Larry Johnson in 1991 was the other). UNLV is only the 18th school to ever have multiple No. 1 overall draft choices and is just the fourth to have two No. 1 NBA Draft picks in the last 26 years ... Only one school has ever had three No. 1 draft picks. The program had back-to-back lottery selections in 1998 and 1999 with Keon Clark (13th overall by the Orlando Magic - 1998) and Shawn Marion (ninth overall by the Phoenix Suns - 1999). With Rashad Vaughn picked No. 17 overall in the 2015 NBA Draft, UNLV has had two first-round selections over the last five years. And, with Patrick McCaw and Stephen Zimmerman Jr. both being drafted in the second round in 2016, UNLV has had a total of four players taken in the NBA Draft over the last five years. A total of 15 Runnin’ Rebels have been selected in the NBA’s first round since 1975, and of those, nine have been lottery selections. Ricky Sobers was UNLV’s first player to be selected in the first round in 1975 by the Phoenix Suns. ACTIVE NBA PLAYERS: As of October 2017, there were four former Runnin' Rebels on active on NBA rosters. They were Khem Birch (Orlando Magic), Derrick Jones Jr. (Phoenix Suns), Patrick McCaw (Golden State Warriors) and Rashad Vaughn (Milwaukee Bucks). Birch and Jones Jr., went undrafted, while McCaw was a second-round selection in 2016 and Vaughn was picked in the first round in 2015. 37 YEARS OF 20 WINS: UNLV has won 20 or more games in 37 of its 59 seasons of existence. Dating back to the 1973-74 season, UNLV has posted 20 or more wins in 32 out of the last 44 years, including 30 or more wins five times. UNLV has won 20 or more games in eight of the last 11 seasons. From 2006-07 to 2013-14, UNLV won 20 or more games each year, which marked the first time since 1985-93 that it has won 20-plus games in eight consecutive seasons. THE THOMAS & MACK CENTER: The 2016-17 season marks the 35th year of Runnin’ Rebel basketball in the Thomas & Mack Center. UNLV has posted an all-time record of 467-111 (.808) in the arena since it opened in 1983. WORKIN’ OVERTIME: The Runnin’ Rebels all-time record in overtime games is 57-29 (.663). UNLV played two overtime games in 2016-17, going 1-1 in those contests (won in double overtime vs. Air Force and lost in single overtime vs. San Diego State in the Mountain West Tournament.

Since the 3-point field goal was adopted by the NCAA in 1986-87, UNLV has converted at least one 3-pointer in all 1,006 games played. Entering the 2017-18 season, Kentucky is the NCAA leader with 1,013. UNLV, Vanderbilt and Princeton are the only three schools in college basketball to have made at least one 3-pointer in every game played since the 3-point line was implemented. In UNLV’s 1,006 games, the Runnin’ Rebels have made 6,701-of-19,023 (.352) shots from behind the arc. The Big West Conference experimented with the 3-point shot in the 1982-83, 1984-85 and 1985-86 seasons. During that period, UNLV connected from 3-point range in 53 of the 64 games (the 3-pointer was used in some non-conference games). The Runnin’ Rebels sank 194-of-505 (.384) 3-point attempts during that time. With the experimental years included, the UNLV streak for games in which it has made at least one 3-point shot stands at 1,023. The last time the Runnin’ Rebels failed to make at least one 3-pointer came against Long Beach State on Jan. 25, 1986. So, UNLV has made at least one shot from behind the arc in 1,059 of the 1,070 games in which the rule was used. In the 1,070 total games, the Runnin’ Rebels have shot .353 from long distance while sinking 6,893-of-19,528.

REBEL HISTORY MASCOT

Opened 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 now sponsors seven men’s and 10 women’s athletic programs.

NICKNAME

UNLV’s nickname dates to the University’s origin in the mid-1950s. Nevada Southern was struggling to emerge from the shadow of the University of Nevada, Reno and its students and administrators drew the idea from the natural rivalry that accompanied the split between what would become UNLV and UNR. The nickname “Rebels" was given to UNLV athletic teams because the school in effect “rebelled” against its bigger and older brother to the north. Not realized by many people, the term Runnin’ Rebels (always spelled without a “g”) refers only to the men’s basketball team at UNLV. The nickname came about prior to the 1974-75 season when the University was searching for some identity and pizzazz for its young men’s basketball program. At the time, former head coach Jerry Tarkanian was entering his second season at UNLV with a young, talented team, one that had forced him to change his coaching style during his first season in Las Vegas. His “team of thoroughbreds,” as referred to by then-sports information director Dominic Clark, convinced Tarkanian to drop his zone defense and employ a fast-paced run-and-gun offense and man-to-man pressure defense. The Fab Four Freshmen of Lewis Brown, Glen Gondrezick, Eddie Owens and Jackie Robinson had proved themselves capable of running the end-toend game after posting a record of 20-6, averaging 77.8 points per game and recording two games of 100-plus points. So, entering the next season, Clark decided to play upon Utah’s nickname of the Running Utes by adopting the term Runnin’ Rebels to refer to the men’s basketball team. However, because he did not want to copy Utah completely, and the term “Running Rebels” did not sound as good, he decided to replace the ‘‘g” with an apostrophe. The decision was definitely prophetic as UNLV went on to set numerous scoring records in the 1975-76 season. That year, the Runnin’ Rebels went 29-2, averaged 110.5 points per game and tallied 23 games of 100-plus points. They also set an NCAA scoring record when they went to Hawaii-Hilo and won 164-111. In that game, UNLV made 73 of 122 field goals, while registering 26 steals. The following year, the Fab Four Freshmen were now seniors and had added the likes of Robert Smith, Sam Smith, Tony Smith and Reggie Theus. They went 29-3, made the school’s firstever Final Four appearance, averaged 107.1 points per game and recorded 23 games of 100-plus points, including 12 in a row.

RECORDS

Nevada Southern students also created the school’s original mascot, Beauregard, a fanged cartoon wolf with a Confederate-style uniform, to “rebel” against UNR’s Wolf Pack mascot in the north. Beauregard’s smirk and wink contrasted with UNR’s ferocious wolf, another nod to the fledgling school’s break from tradition and its older and more established peer. Beauregard lasted until the early 1970s, when a group of African-American student-athletes voiced objection to the Confederate imagery surrounding the mascot. Campus leaders agreed and in 1976 the student senate voted to officially banish Beauregard. Both he and the Confederate symbols were relegated to the history books and their only presence on campus today is in areas describing the history of the mascot and in the Majorie Barrick Museum, where the former gymnasium still includes the old wood basketball floor with the wolf logo painted at what was center court. The Rebel name was also put to a vote in the early 1970s, with students deciding 446-246 to retain it. According to the University’s 50th anniversary book, UNLV: A History: “After all, ‘Rebel’ stood for much more than a supporter of the Civil War against the Union. In the 1960s especially, it symbolized those who rejected convention, tradition, racism ... Most of all, in Southern Nevada it stood for those who had opposed northern domination in the state legislature and unwanted dependency upon Reno.” After students voted to bounce Beauregard, the Rebels briefly used a colonial soldier during the Bicentennial and there was talk at one time of changing UNLV’s nickname to Minutemen. However, the school went largely without a mascot until 1982. That’s when celebrated local artist Mike Miller was asked to conceptualize his version of the UNLV Rebel -- and Hey Reb! was born. Miller, a partner in a local advertising firm who held the UNLV account, was asked to create a character representative of area history that embraced the rebel spirit. Miller said his inspiration came from the western trailblazers of the 1800s, such as John C. Fremont and Kit Carson, who ventured into uncharted Nevada to discover resources and build communities. “Pathfinders were independent people who went all around the West looking for new trails, agriculture, gold mining,” he said. “I sketched out a little mountain man with a long coat that had some fringe on it.” The design, which Miller sold to UNLV for one dollar, was reflective of western independence and immediately resonated with students, fans and the community. Despite the new Rebel symbol eventually being displayed as having striking white hair, Miller said he put Hey Reb’s intended age at around 30 years old. As for the unusual name of the character, there was no campus contest or high-priced marketing focus group assembled. “I just wrote Hey Reb! On the back of his coat on of the many variations I gave (UNLV),” Miller said. “I was hoping it would be a good slogan – a yellout 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 with the decade. In 1997 a more muscular version of Hey Reb, minus the original musket, was introduced and another refreshed version was adopted in 2006. Miller, who passed away in 2014, was inducted into the UNLV Athletics Hall of Fame in 2012.


NCAA FINAL FOUR Four times the Runnin’ Rebels have advanced to the NCAA Final Four, winning the title in 1990. The following is a brief outline of each team and its accomplishments.

1976-77

Known as the “Hardway Eight,” this was the team that put UNLV on the map as a nationally prominent program. With players such as Lewis Brown, Glen Gondrezick, Larry Moffett, Eddie Owens, Robert Smith, Sam Smith, Tony Smith and Reggie Theus, the Rebels ran themselves to a record of 29-3 and a spot in the 1977 Final Four at the Omni in Atlanta. UNLV’s record-setting team established NCAA marks for most points in one season (3,426), most 100-point games (23) and most consecutive 100-point games (12). The Runnin’ Rebels won their first-ever West Regional Championship and advanced to the national semifinals. An 84-83 loss to North Carolina in the semifinals ended the championship dreams, but a 106-94 triumph over North Carolina-Charlotte gave UNLV third place and a positive end to the season. The squad was inducted into the UNLV Athletics Hall of Fame in 1987.

HISTORY

The 1986-87 edition of Runnin’ Rebel basketball was a special one as it became the first team to end the regular season as the nation’s top-ranked team. Led by Freddie Banks, Jarvis Basnight, Armon Gilliam, Gerald Paddio and Mark Wade, the Rebels ran through the Pacific Coast Athletic Association with a perfect record of 18-0. The team’s only regular-season loss came at Oklahoma, 89-88. UNLV entered the NCAA Tournament as the top seed in the West Region, breezing through the first three rounds. The Rebels received a big scare in the regional final when they were forced to overcome an 18-point deficit against a scrappy Iowa squad. The 84-81 triumph earned UNLV a spot in the Final Four at the Superdome in New Orleans. Banks shined in the semifinal matchup with Indiana, connecting on a tournament-record 10 3-pointers, but it was not enough as the Rebels fell to the eventual champions, 97-93. The loss ended UNLV’s season with a record of 37-2. The squad was inducted into the UNLV Athletics Hall of Fame in 1998.

NCAA FINAL FOUR 1989-90

The season it all came together for the Runnin’ Rebels was 1989-90. Future NBA star Larry Johnson transferred from Odessa College, joining Greg Anthony, Stacey Augmon, David Butler and Anderson Hunt. The Rebels began the season ranked No. 1 in almost every poll and rolled through the competition. UNLV suffered a surprising loss at New Mexico State and finished the season as co-champions of the Big West Conference. However, Johnson and Co. flexed their muscles in the Big West Tournament, running away with the title and the No. 1 seed in the West Region. In NCAA Tournament play, the Rebels toughest game came in the third round at Oakland, Calif., when Ball State hung tough before falling 69-67. UNLV also ended Loyola Marymount’s cinderella season with a 131-101 thrashing in the regional final. The win set up a semifinal match with Georgia Tech at McNicholls Arena in Denver. Trailing by seven at the half, UNLV rallied for an 89-80 triumph and a date in the championship. The 1990 NCAA Championship was all UNLV as an 18-0 run midway through the second half sent Duke reeling as the Rebels ran up the most lopsided victory in championship history, 103-73. Hunt was named Most Outstanding Player at the Final Four for his performance as the Rebels finished the season 35-5. The squad was inducted into the UNLV Athletics Hall of Fame in 2000.

RECORDS

Billed as one of the greatest teams of all time, the 1990-91 squad became the first team in 12 seasons to go undefeated in the regular season (27-0). A perfect record of 18-0 captured the Big West crown and earned the Rebels the No. 1 seed in the West Region. UNLV also flexed its muscles in a rout of then-No. 2 Arkansas in Fayetteville. The Rebels rolled through regional play with wins over Montana, Georgetown, Utah and Seton Hall before a showdown with Duke in the Final Four at the Hoosier Dome in Indianapolis. Grant Hill, Bobby Hurley and Christian Laettner kept the Rebels in check all evening and ended UNLV’s dreams of back-to-back championships and the first perfect season since Indiana in 1976. The 79-77 loss ended UNLV’s season with a record of 34-1. The team was inducted into the UNLV Athletics Hall of Fame in 2002.

To describe Jerry Tarkanian in one word is "winner." Tark was hired as head coach on March 23, 1973, and in 19 seasons compiled an amazing 509-105 record. Tarkanian led the Runnin' Rebels to postseason play 14 times, including nine consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances (1983-91) with UNLV's first-ever National Championship in 1990 and back-to-back Final Fours. In 2005 the Thomas & Mack Center court was dedicated in his honor and in 2013 he was enshrined in the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame - the first coach or player from UNLV to be inducted.

COACH TARKANIAN - HALL OF FAMER

Former UNLV men’s basketball head coach Jerry Tarkanian was enshrined in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame on Sept. 8, 2013, in Springfield, Mass. He was one of 12 members of the Class of 2013. During 19 years at the helm of the Runnin’ Rebels (1973-1992), Tarkanian shaped an uptempo and aggressive style that captivated fans in Las Vegas, and across the nation. Posting a 509-105 (.829) record at UNLV, he took four teams to the NCAA Final Four, winning the national championship in 1990 in a 103-73 runaway over Duke - still the highest margin of victory in NCAA tournament championship game history. He had the court at the Thomas & Mack Center named in his honor on Nov. 26, 2005. A member of the UNLV Athletics Hall of Fame, Tarkanian was one of only two coaches to see his number retired. Known to fans as the towel-chewing “Tark the Shark,” he never had a losing season while at UNLV. At the school, Tarkanian coached 13 players recognized as All-Americans a total of 20 times. He won 11 regular-season conference championships, seven conference tournament titles and made 12 NCAA Tournament appearances, including a string of nine straight. He was an eight-time conference coach of the year and was named UPI’s National Coach of the Year in 1983. Over 31 seasons as a Division I head coach, Tarkanian amassed 729 wins, with just 201 losses for a career winning percentage of .784, ranking 10th alltime among NCAA Division I men’s basketball coaches. He led Long Beach State from 1968-73 and Fresno State from 1995-2002.

Tarkanian was the second fastest coach to reach 700 career wins in NCAA history, behind only Kentucky’s Adolph Rupp. Overall, he won 900 games in a 38-year college coaching career (including junior college). Joining Tarkanian as elected members of the Class of 2013 were fellow Las Vegas resident Gary Payton, Rick Pitino, Guy V. Lewis, Bernard King, Dawn Staley and Sylvia Hatchell. Five others were directly selected through the Hall’s other committees: E.B. Henderson (Early AfricanAmerican Pioneers), Roger Brown (ABA), Oscar Schmidt (International), Richie Guerin (Veterans) and Russ Granik (Contributor). To be elected, finalists required 18 of 24 votes from the Honors Committee for election into the Hall of Fame. The addition of the direct elect committees

were incorporated into the election process to maintain a strong focus on keeping history on the forefront of the voting procedures and to preserve a balance between two eras of basketball. Also, in 2013, a bronze statue was added outside the Thomas & Mack Center as part of The Jerry Tarkanian Legacy Project. Tarkanian passed away at the age of 84 in Las Vegas on Feb. 11, 2015. The Runnin’ Rebels wore a special patch on their uniforms in his honor during the remainder of the season and as a memorial tribute, the lights on the famous Las Vegas Strip were dimmed in his honor for roughly three minutes on Feb. 18.

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 30,000 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 120 undergraduate programs and 100 graduate tracts, UNLV graduated a class of over 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 Desiree

ATHLETICS DIRECTOR

REED-FRANCOIS

Desiree Reed-Francois became UNLV’s 13th permanent director of athletics on June 1, 2017. She is the first Hispanic female athletics director at the FBS level. Reed-Francois has more than two decades of leadership experience as an athlete, attorney and athletics administrator and is considered one of the profession’s rising stars. At UNLV, she oversees all aspects of the athletics program, including general operations, fiscal affairs, facilities, strategic planning and external relations. In three years at Virginia Tech from 2014-17, Reed-Francois was the executive associate athletic director and later deputy athletic director, serving as second-in-command to the athletics director and was responsible for external relations and dayto-day operations for 22 sports, more than 600 student-athletes, and 14 facilities. An administrator with an eye toward balancing the complex external and internal facets of a Power Five athletics department, Reed-Francois partnered on budget development for all athletics units at Virginia Tech, prepared the department’s facilities master plan, redesigned fundraising strategy, and revitalized the university’s student-athlete success program. Under her leadership, overall ticket, marketing, and licensing revenue rose by more than 20 percent the past two years and the institution secured the largest corporate development gifts in program history. This included a season ticket sellout for football and marked attendance increases in men’s and women’s basketball, baseball, soccer and softball. She was one of just four women in the nation responsible for day-to-day operations of a Power Five football program and helped orchestrate the most-attended football game in history in 2016 when Virginia Tech and Tennessee met in front of more than 156,000 fans at Bristol Motor Speedway. Working closely with Virginia Tech athletics director Whit Babcock, Reed-Francois was instrumental in the recruitment and hiring of current Hokies head football coach Justin Fuente (the reigning ACC Coach of the Year) and coaches for women’s basketball and lacrosse – all of which

recently enjoyed stellar seasons. She also led the search for first-year VT volleyball coach Jill Lytle Wilson. Prior to Virginia Tech, Reed-Francois spent two years at the University of Cincinnati as senior associate athletics director and senior woman administrator. There, she was a member of the executive staff whose duties included external affairs, sport oversight and negotiation of the university’s contract with the Cincinnati Bengals for use of Paul Brown Stadium during a campus stadium renovation. She also served for a period in 2014 as interim athletics director. A former student-athlete at UCLA (rowing), Reed-Francois is a strong advocate for studentathletes and understands the importance of leadership development and mentorship in ensuring their future success. She believes leadership development is at the core of college athletics and says universities should create an environment that supports opportunities to positively impact lives and develop leaders in student-athletes, coaches, and staff. During her career in athletics administration, Reed-Francois has worked at the University of Tennessee, Fresno State, Santa Clara, San Jose State, the University of California-Berkeley, and the University of San Francisco. At Tennessee, she was the first female administrator in SEC history to oversee men’s basketball. Her work has covered athletics compliance, program oversight, budget management, brand development and marketing, strategic planning, major gifts cultivation, contracts and legal counsel, student-athlete services, and facilities management. Before working in college athletics, she was a practicing lawyer and also spent time as a legal associate for the Oakland Raiders and the NFL’s Management Council. Reed-Francois earned a bachelor’s degree from UCLA and a juris doctorate from the University of Arizona College of Law. She is a member of the Califonia Bar and taught law classes at Tennessee and Santa Clara.

She has served on numerous Atlantic Coast Conference and American Athletic Conference committees. She is also a member of the National Association of Collegiate Marketing Administrators and National Association of College Directors of Athletics. In 2016, she was named one of twelve senior athletics administrators as “NEXT UP” by College AD’s panel of respected athletics directors. Reed-Francois and her husband Joshua have a son, Jackson.
