Where does Chris Murray gets this stuff?

When the rest of us are sleeping, eating, zoned out in front of the television, waiting for the pizza to be delivered, praying and lighting candles that Ana Ivanovic won't think we're creepy and actually will be charmed by the gifts and letters we keep sending her, Chris Murray is out-working us.

Chris, we're raising the white flag, we surrender. You win. It isn't even close.

Just how young is the Wolf Pack?

The Wolf Pack's youth has been an often talked about subject this season, but just how young is Nevada? According to Ken Pomeroy's statistics, they are the 288th least-experienced team in the country (out of 344 teams). Here are the WAC teams ranked by experience (with national rank in parenthesis)...

Many Pack fans believe Chris gets a good number of his ideas for these posts from Nevada's message board. Nearly all of these fun stats and things he posts have been posted and discussed at S&BSports before they appear at the RGJ. Often just a day or two before Chris writes his blog entry. We don't mind as it spreads the info a lot farther than the message board can. A hat tip would be nice.

It does appear that Chris has become a devotee of Pomeroy, which is where the info for his blog post came from. That can only make him a better informed writer, and he's already the best in the WAC.
