| UNLV Rebels Football News: |
| UNLV football holds its first spring practice of the year on March 29 to begin a 15-session schedule that will culminate with the return of a traditional spring game for the first time in more than a decade on April 22.
The Rebels pull on the pads under new head coach Mike Sanford for the first time and will once again have the luxury of performing on the AstroPlay synthetic surface at Ernie Becker Sr. Football Fields at Bill "Wildcat" Morris Rebel Park. UNLV is scheduled to practice every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 4:00-6:15 p.m. and each Friday at 5:30-7:30. However, there will not be a practice on Wednesday, April 20. All practices are open to the public but please note that, unlike previous practices, viewing areas will be restricted. |

| More UNLV Rebels Football News: |
| A month ago, according to a story in USA Today, the NCAA was "rethinking" its relationship with alcohol, with the inference being it might explore banning beer sales on campus.
Rebels football fans immediately broke into a cold sweat, as UNLV and San Diego State are the only two Mountain West members that sell alcohol at football and basketball games. Not to worry. This one has been nipped in the Budweiser. Speaking during the Final Four last week, NCAA president Myles Brand said he personally opposes the sale of alcoholic beverages at college sporting events, but that the NCAA has no authority to prevent it. More than a quarter of Division I-A schools responding to a survey indicated they sell alcohol at games. And almost a third of the responding schools said they allowed alcohol ads in stadium and arena signage as well as game programs. That might be the real reason the NCAA has no authority to prevent it, or whatever story Dr. Brand has come up with and is sticking to. |
