Dave Rice to USF & UNLV Vaughn Thread

[uro cy]

Has RV enrolled at UNLV already? Taking classes in holding out for more $$ from professor Rice?

If Rice gets paid more after reading about UNLV's budget woes, then those two deserve each other. I think it is a dumb *** reason to give him more money.

They should call his bluff. No way he leaves with that recruiting class coming in.

What does he care? I doubt he really had much say in who was recruited anyway. If he can double his salary why wouldn't he?

The guy sounds like a real piece of work. Has a **** poor season and he then tries to leverage for a raise when the school has known budget issues. What a scumbag.

This describes about 75% of all D1 college coaches.

That's low. (not your statement, the %)

I'm sure he's using the USF offer, and loss of recruits as leverage toward UNLV, but I gotta give this guy credit for making it work.

And if it's true that he had his recruiting class convinced to follow him to USF, then, money not withstanding, this guy is a helluva good recruiter.

That doesn't appear to be any leverage whatsoever to me.

There's something happening here, what it is ain't exactly clear.

So is Vaughn coming back to isu, I missed it

 

[BallSoHard4Cy]

They could hire a guy off the street for a couple coconuts and would still get as much production as they got of Rice. Our exaggerations of Drew being a bad coach are what Rice amounts too.

@edgraney: Source confirms that if UNLV extends Dave Rice, he will likely stay. He wants extra $$ put back into the program, not for his pockets.

So he wants a raise of the basketball budget instead of his own salary?

@edgraney: Dave Rice update via source: He wants extension from UNLV for security. Money secondary. Wants security and other things (more charters)

Yeah, because their failure is all about recruiting, so if only the cash could go into the program so they could land better than 3 star recruits.

Everybody look what's going down.

Stop children, what's that sound?

Dave Rice is leveraging a USF job offer along with his recruiting class of 2014's potential to get an extension at UNLV. It's pretty easy to see.

Rice hasn't won a NCAA tournament game and has underachieved his entire time there as a head coach.

UNLV will likely give an extension to Rice and it is a total d-bag move on Rice's part. Earn your raise!

 

[marothisu]

^ It will only work if UNLV is dumb enough to buy into it. If UNLV is smart, the only way he gets an extension or raise is if he wins in the tournament next year. If he doesn't even make the tournament next year, you'd have to believe that his *** is on the hot seat.

What AD would want a long term deal for a guy who can't make the tournament with a team of McD AAs, or even the possibility of it. If Kentucky can miss the dance with a team of loaded freshman, a mid major certainly can.
