Arguments such as this one are why I stopped responding to ph9 in this thread a long time ago.

2. randomly bitching about fans of big conference teams to
3. bringing up Kentucky when no one was talking about them, or is a fan of them.
So the point remains, your original post was all full of douche because you can't stand that someone might be a fan of a big conference team for a reason other than they are a big conference. Such an intense inferiority complex...

Another problem with the big six conference teams is that they look down on the non-members like they're too good to even play them.

Ok, let's recap.
StickSkills: "Hey, my team won last night. Pretty cool, we hadn't won a conference game all year. Neat-o gang!"
You inexplicably interpret this as "My team is from a power 6 conference, therefore better than your ****** team."
Then you defend your absurd leap of judgment with telling us what you think of Kentucky's tournament chances.
If you can give me a good reason why this makes sense I'm nominating you for president in 2016.

That's what I thought. You'll be proven wrong in March. Mike Moser, Anthony Bennett, and Khem Birch will play very well in the tournament.

Ok, what does that have to do with anything? People starting ripping on you for being a UNLV fan after you made a huge asshole comment for no reason. You brought that on yourself.
But I guess I'm a douche for "blindly" following a school that I paid a lot of money to get a quality education. My bad.

I think by instincts you mean common sense and/or sanity.

I'm trolling the troll.
UCLA has imploded.
Your argument is invalid.

At least when I "troll" I give reasons for my positions. Also, giving your opinion isn't "trolling."

So they recruit nationally. That isn't even close to the same thing.

The Rebels were selling more jerseys than anybody back in the day.

Your moving of goalposts, random thought generation, general incorrectness, and overall flailing about a variety of vaguely connected topics is highly amusing.
Bravo, good sir. Also, not many people give a damn about a commuter school in a sparsely populated state.

Every western state is sparsely populated. You can go hundreds of miles without encountering a major city.

And people laugh at me when I say UNLV is going to the Final Four. There's no dominant teams this year. There's been about twenty top five teams who have lost to an unranked team this year.

With the exception of the "top 5" label, how is this statement different for UNLV? Or is UNLV only not top 5 because grumble grumble ESPN grumble big six grumble can't even win their own conference.

EastSPN is horribly biased. New Mexico, a Mountain West team, is 2nd in RPI and 3rd in strength of schedule, and they're only ranked 14th.

So that means UNLV is going to the Final Four, right? Because their conferences best team should be ranked higher, so that means UNLV is better due to correlation of being in the same conference.
Again, a lot of teams have lost to unranked teams, including the top 5-7 teams in the country. How is that any different than UNLV and why are you using that as support for why UNLV is going to the Final Four instead of any of those teams?

UNLV is one of the most talented teams in the country, and they're starting to peak.
