The UNLV Runnin' Rebels men's basketball team announced head coach Dave Rice resigned on Sunday, according to Matt Youmans of the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
Youmans noted the university has yet to confirm Rice's firing. ESPN Las Vegas radio personality Dave Cokin said assistant coach Todd Simon will be the interim head coach.
The Runnin' Rebels dropped to 0-3 in Mountain West play after a 59-57 loss to the Wyoming Cowboys on Saturday. UNLV led by as many as 17 points in the first half but lost for the fifth time in its last six games.
