Curtis Weaver keeps getting All-American awards
Six is pretty incredible. And Holani getting his recognition is pretty great as well.
More All-America honors came in for @curtisweaver99 and @GeorgeHolani today!

Going to miss Weaver next year.
The MW has a new tv deal
Supposedly that site usually has a paywall. But this news shouldn’t be behind it. Hopefully they didn’t lock it up.
One fun tidbit:
Would mean Boise State's cut would be a little more than $5M annually. Currently at $2.9M. Still unknown what channel Boise State's home games would primarily be aired. https://t.co/VdMVvK5KKo

It’s good to be the king.
Though, supposedly, the deal hasn’t been officially signed yet by the MW so the final details have yet to be hammered out.
UPDATE regarding the potential new MW television deal that was reported earlier tonight...

From the @MountainWest:
“The story is inaccurate as reported. No deal has been signed by any party and negotiations are ongoing.”
So we shall see where everything ends up. Unfortunately, even if this were all true, the MW would still be behind the AAC in dollars.

You wouldn’t have convinced me in a million years that the Marshall matchup was going to be higher than Florida State. I understand the circumstances somewhat behind the Florida State game, and that the Marshall game was a Friday game, but still.
Boise State not expecting to have players missing for the bowl game
No sit-outs and no transfers (yet). But this won’t include academic shutdowns since this week is literally finals. They will be pushing through grades for athletes to make sure the Broncos don’t play ineligible players. Should be fun.
