Happy Memorial Day to one and all!

It’s Monday and we’re back after the weekend. The links keep pressing on, so check out the latest Mountain West and college sports-related news from around the web, plus the original content we have coming your way this week.

The NCAA has spoken. They do not consider student-athletes employees of the university they attend.

Hand it to Chris Murray, who often comes up with creative content in the offseason.
