What a crazy time for college football!
We’re in the midst of the most substantial realignment period in the sport’s history; at some point, the Mountain West will likely be affected (knock on wood it doesn’t). And speaking of substantial change — even though it’s not as appealing to the average fan — the Nevada Wolf Pack squad had itself quite the offseason.
Whew.
And it’s not necessarily in the best way. It lost its head coach to in-conference foe Colorado State as well as a bevy of transfers. Its top three skill threats — Carson Strong (more below), Cole Turner and Romeo Doubs — elected to go to the NFL and the Pack return less than 30 percent of its production from a year, the lowest in the nation, per ESPN.
