And lands Zimmerman a 5*, 7' Center. Why can't SDSU get these type of players?

These recruits must be getting terrible advice...why in the world would you pick UNLV and Rice's awful history of getting the best out of his players over Hall of Fame coaches who can really develop players?

It's because he can sell Bennett going number 1 in the draft a few years ago. That was probably his whole angle, and what sold Zimmerman.

And land Zimmerman a 5 star 7 foot center. Why can't SDSU get these type of players? It's called the Findley prep pipeline. they are going to be loaded, especially inside.

Zimmerman went to Bishop Gorman along with Duke recruit Chase Jeter and Gonzaga recruit Zach Collins. Now that team was loaded inside.

Their 3, 4, and 5 will be Okonoboh, Dwayne Morgan, and Zimmerman.. plus they have the #3 SF in the class this year Derrick Jones and the top 100 PG transfer from Rutgers. They'll be more stacked than they were last year, but we'll see if they can put it together and be a good team

At some point there'll be enough talent Rice can just roll out the balls in practice & just say "have fun". Even he won't be able to screw it up.

Now that team was loaded inside. True. Should have said "Vegas Prep School" Pipeline - lots of great local HS talent to feed into UNLV, plus most kids play Sneaker ball in Vegas at some tourney, so built in "unofficial" visits to the campus.

I've been saying that the past couple of years but really believe it now. Better competition should bring out the better games and players when we go against them.

I know some people were complaining that they got Wichita St & we got Illinois St, but could be they got it right. UNLV may go in as the conference favorite with this line-up, while us & Illinois St are going into the season both as 2nd place picks.

BSU could also be the MWC conference BB favorite.

You severely underestimate the screw up ability of Dave Rice He is the worst time management coach I have ever seen at the college level.

If Vaughn was not injured Rebels could have beaten the Aztecs at Vegas at least once if not twice . They are going to be very good , especially if Wood returns . Last year they lost because they ended up with only 7 or 8 players, not going to happen this year. Did watch Zimmerman play in All star games not the quality of the other top 10 recruits but more them enough to be strong in the MW . Their front line will be incredible . As mentioned BSU will also be strong contender for the championship .

I hope the Rebs are good. Them sucking and NM tanking is why the MWC dropped in stature last year. That and SJSU's existence.
