FORT COLLINS, Colo. — This is the part of the basketball season first-year UNLV coach Marvin Menzies has been pointing toward.
The Rebels (7-6) open Mountain West play at Colorado State (8-5) at 8 p.m. PST Wednesday, and he’s hoping his team has positioned itself to make a strong run in the conference.
“Right now, I feel good about our progress,” Menzies said. “I just don’t know how that feeling will shake out once we play the games. You’ve got to play the games to find out.”
UNLV has a tough opening week against league competition.
