The current college basketball landscape is unrecognizable compared to the early 1990s. Let's just say it was a different time in the NCAA. That is especially true for the UNLV Runnin' Rebels.

Larry "Big Dog" Johnson and Stacy "Plastic Man" Augmon did their thing on the court while their legendary head coach, Jerry Tarkanian, roamed the sidelines. Besides the fab-five, no team had a more significant cultural impact than the Runnin' Rebels.

With March Madness right around the corner, Nike is releasing a new colorway of one of its most iconic sneakers of that era. Below is everything fans must know about the Nike Terminator Low 'UNLV' colorway.

The Nike Terminator Low 'UNLV' was released on February 20 for $120. Online shoppers can purchase the iconic hoop shoes on the Nike SNKRS website and app while supplies last. After that, trusted sneaker resale websites will be the second-best option.

According to the product description, "The Terminator Low lets you step back to the era of hook shots, knee pads, and calf-high socks. Crisp Varsity Red and Medium Grey leather keeps your look smoother than backboard glass while retro branding delivers a winning finish."

Even if the Runnin' Rebels (and college basketball) have lost some of their luster over the years, these sneakers are perfect for old-school hoops fans. Follow FanNationKicks.com for all of your most important footwear news.
