Eleven players are consistently seeing the floor for UNLV, and such a deep rotation is rare for a college basketball team three months into the season. It was coach Lon Kruger’s plan all along, and he’s sticking to it.
In November there were questions about which one of the 11 would be the Rebels’ leader. On and off the floor, junior guard Tre’Von Willis has provided the answer.
New UNLV football coach Bobby Hauck is bringing a new brand of discipline and planning to the Rebels after seven successful years at Montana, who played in three national title games in the former I-AA. Anything close to that kind of success in the Mountain West Conference might make Rebels fans happy. But the very private Hauck is much more than an accomplished football coach.
