Mountain West Media Day Recap

Broadcast yesterday on CSTV as a three hour special, the Mountain West Media Slam featured both the men's and women's basketball teams presented in alphabetical order, with equal 90-minute segments each.

Some of the highlights:

  • In Vegas, with Seth Davis and Steve Lappas
  • A number of BCS transfers eligible to play this season in the Mountain West: JR Giddens (Kansas), Aaron Johnson (Penn State), Lorenzo Wade (Louisville), Jerome Habel (ex VaTech commit), K. Langford (Cal), Kruger's daughter (Arizona State), etc, etc
  • Everyone is undefeated so most of the coaches were cautiously optimistic. There was some noise about as many as four NCAA bids from the Mountain West
  • The official conference poll had not come out when the Media Slam was taking place
  • Air Force was represented by an assistant head coach since Jeff B. had to attend to a family matter
  • This presentation will repeat 3-4 more times on CSTV in the next few days. Check local listings.

    These nine teams make up the Mountain West: San Diego State, New Mexico, BYU, Air Force, Utah, UNLV, Wyoming, Colorado State and TCU.
