The lowdown
2000-01 record: 17-14; 8-8 in Big West
Final Ranking: NR
Postseason: None
Three Questions for 2001-02
1. Can Abe Jackson be a go-to scorer in the WAC? Will he be too undersized at 6-7 and not as effective?
2. Will Booker Nabors be able to hold his own at the point? Can he be as tough a defender and distributor as he was in the Big West?
3. How will the Broncos adjust to the WAC? Is there that much difference between the two leagues?
Andy Katz's Scenarios
Best case: Boise State is a competitive team and disrupts WAC teams on the road enough to steal a few wins and finish in the middle of the pack.
Worst case: The Broncos don't shoot well enough from the perimeter and have a hard time finishing above eighth.
