The first time Wolf Pack receiver Hasaan Henderson saw Nevada play UNLV he was a high school kid living in Las Vegas.
“I didn’t know much about it and I went with a friend and saw nothing but blue in the stadium,” Henderson of the scene at Sam Boyd Stadium. “I thought, ‘Why when I come to a UNLV game are there more Wolf Pack fans here?’ It didn’t make sense. I didn’t know much about the colleges at the time.”
A a prolific prep quarterback, Henderson eventually earned scholarship offers from both Nevada and UNLV, picking the Wolf Pack’s offer over the one extended by his hometown college.
