The Mountain West released an official statement on Monday regarding the incident that occurred at the end of Utah State’s 81-76 victory over Nevada.
The first important statement here is:
“...the Mountain West has concluded the situation was not caused by the court rush.”
Amongst the many rumors of how this incident started, one of the more popular theories was that Nevada players were approached, touched, and had disparaging comments said to them by Aggie fans rushing the court.
At the moment, there’s no proof to this claim and the Mountain West itself has said the situation did not originate from the rushing of the court.
