LAS VEGAS – Plenty of time has passed for the parties involved, but UNLV basketball fans haven't forgotten their perception of a slight cast upon their program by Cincinnati Bearcats head coach Mike Cronin.

Cronin, who considered leaving the Cincinnati Bearcats and interviewed for the UNLV head coaching job in March 2016, was greeted by Runnin' Rebels fans with boos prior to his program's Saturday game and eventual 65-61 victory at the Thomas and Mack Center.
