2016-17 MWC forecast from the magazines

Geoff Grammer:

"Avg.  MWC picks of the 3 magazines in pic (Athlon's, Sporting News, Lindy's):
1.0 SDSU
2.3 Nev
3.0 UNM
4.3 FS
5.0 UtSt
6.0 CSU
7.0 BoiSt
t9.0 AFA
t9.0 Wyo
9.3 UNLV
10.0 SJSU"

That's a big drop for Boise -- UNLV won't be so low for long -- not arguing against the SJSU positioning but so little is known about the team's returnees and newcomers, even by the writers of each MWC preview. It's really important that a beat reporter for a MWC team do the prognostications because that person has at least seen last year's squad, and that isn't the case here.
