Nevada coach Jeff Horton signed a three-year contract to coach UNLV, just hours after Rebels coach Jim Strong announced his resignation. Strong, 3-8 this season and 17-27 in four seasons, agreed earlier this year that he would remain only through this season, then leave with a settlement for the final year of his five-year contract. Horton, a former UNLV assistant to Strong, was 7-4 at Nevada this season, his first as a head coach.
