The Brendon Lewis era at Nevada has closed as he commits to Memphis. That leaves Chubba Purdy and AJ Bianco fighting for the Wolf Pack’s starting quarterback job in 2025.

While Nevada's effort offensively has been great at times since MW play started (including many times today), it doesn't matter when you allow a team to shoot 52% from deep and 49% overall. The Pack is in a 12-foot hole right now, and they need to pull themselves out quickly.

Former Nevada WR Cortez Braham Jr. set to visit Kansas. Braham is one of the beneficiaries of JuCo players getting an extra year of eligibility.

Some of my notes from the first half of the Nevada v New Mexico game - These Mountain West refs need to be evaluated for competency - Nevada's inability to consistently make FTs will kill them long term - Davidson is showing his 3-ball skills at the right time One more to go...

Halftime: Nevada 37, New Mexico 34 Nevada started the game 1-of-10 before going 13-of-17. Nick Davidson and Kobe Sanders with a combined 23 points, going 5-of-8 from three. New Mexico has yet to make a 3-pointer but is 14-of-19 from the free throw line. Nevada is 3-of-10.

GET TO FOX SPORTS 1! We have a good game going on in The Pit. Nevada is looking to avoid an 0-4 start. New Mexico is looking to move to 4-0 in league play. 40-all with 17:02 to play.

Nevada is heading to overtime with New Mexico after Nick Davidson hit a pair of free-throws to tie the game at 70...with 1.1 seconds left. Lots of drama left in the game!

Nevada is 0-4 in Mountain West play and could very easily be 4-0. Unluckiest team I’ve watched in quite some time, even though the refs tried to hand them that game tonight.

Wolf Pack is now 360th out of 364 teams in KenPom’s luck factor. Despite the loss, I actually think Nevada took a step forward in its competitive edge in this game and now gets the Fresno State-Air Force-San Jose State trio to right the ship the next two weeks.

While there was A LOT of wrong from them in this game (i.e: end of 2nd), the Pack battled back and forth in one of the most hostile places to play in ALL of sports. Miracles can't always fall your way. After a gauntlet of a start for Nevada, it gets Fresno St. and Air Force next

I obtained UC Davis' membership agreement to join the Mountain West, which the school heavily redacted. But there are some interesting nuggets, including the Aggies getting first offer if the MW elevates an FCS football program. nevadasportsnet.com/newsletter-dai…

This was a much needed win, though going to OT and shooting 5-of-29 from deep against one of the worst teams in the MW that ranks 264th in the KenPom rankings is worrisome Still, the Pack is on the road to redemption (if possible). Next up: Air Force @ home on 1/14 #BattleBorn
