Following UNLV’s fifth practice of fall camp at Rebel Park on Tuesday, coach Tony Sanchez again addressed the quarterback competition between Kurt Palandech and Johnny Stanton.

While Sanchez indicated the close battle for the starting spot could extend into the Rebels’ Sept. 1 season opener against Jackson State, he said he’s simply looking for the most efficient game manager.
