The Western Athletic Conference handed out it’s awards yesterday, but who cares about all that legitimate basketball-related crap? Here are the awards that matter:

JaVale McGee, So., F, Nevada
Herb Pope, Fr., F, New Mexico State

The all-Western Athletic Conference teams are out, and two long streaks for the Nevada men’s basketball team are over.
Utah State guard Jaycee Carroll won WAC player of the year honors over Marcelus Kemp, ending the Wolf Pack’s four-year reign of player of the years, and Boise State coach Gregg Graham won coach of the year, […]

With the way the WAC regular season played out, you knew it had to end this way – with a four-team mess tied for the conference championship.
After Boise State choked away its chance at a solo title by losing at home to Utah State, the Broncos, Nevada and both Aggies will be hanging conference title […]

San Jose State just ruined my night.
The Spartans just took down Utah State in a performance that would have made Gerard Butler proud, and now I’m not sure what to do.
I was going to write a blog about the Nevada men’s basketball team being buried behind three teams and explore how the Wolf Pack could […]

So the Aultenator didn’t exactly back me up for defending him yesterday against New Mexico. The loss was a mess and provided plenty of ammo for anybody thinking the Wolf Pack didn’t deserve a bowl game.

Nevada forward Tyrone Hanson has been dismissed from the basketball team.
Hanson was apparently beaten and robbed at the party on Saturday where three people were shot and killed, but Nevada coach Mark Fox said the dismissal had nothing to do with the tragedy.
Hanson was held out of Saturday’s scrimmage for breaking an unspecified team rule, […]

The Nevada men’s basketball team opened up the last half-hour of practice to the public today for “Hoops & Treats,” Most of which was spent scrimmaging and dunking.
- Guard Brandon Fields found his shooting stroke in the offseason.
Fields hit three big 3-pointers during the scrimmages and shot it well from outside during drills. If he […]

The preseason ESPN/USA Today coaches’ poll came out this morning with North Carolina, who Nevada plays in December, at No. 1.
While not ranked, the Wolf Pack picked up eight votes, the most of any Western Athletic Conference team. It remains to be seen whether the Wolf Pack warrants a spot in the top 40 teams […]
