The league is loaded with talent each year, and a lot of the talent makes its way to the conference via Division 1 transfer. The NCAA tournament has been kind to the conference as of late usually pitting one of the conference teams against a major team. The matchup is usually in favor of the mountain west team in the tournament as of late.
The Mountain West will have one team this year who stands way above the rest. That team is the Nevada Wolf Pack. The Wolf Pack and head coach Eric Musselman have put together quite a roster. A roster that has been built almost entirely by transfer. The Nevada staff have been able to utilize the redshirt year with their transfers and help each player improve their skills, in a way that fits into the Nevada system.
