Wednesday was Day 1 of 2 of the preseason Mountain West hoops media day event, this year done virtually over Zoom.
Though I don’t anticipate doing the same on Thursday for Day 2 of the media day, I figured I’d try to shake off some offseason rust and throw together an “Emptying the Notebook” style column of odds & ends from media day and related to the preseason poll release by the league:

The media never knows what they’re talking about.
Except when they do.
When it comes to preseason media polls for college sports, coaches like letting the media know the obvious: It really only matters where a team finishes.
