UNLV Spring Practice No. 2: Tony Sanchez wants a little bit country

UNLV has had only two spring football practices, but one area is clearly not up to the standards of second-year coach Tony Sanchez. That would be the music playlist that can be heard loud and clear at Rebel Park throughout the team’s two-hour-plus morning practice sessions.

Thus far, it has been almost exclusively hip-hop, with a token classic rock song thrown in for good measure. But nothing for Sanchez, who’s a country music fan.

“We’ve got a new film coordinator. He came in from (Florida International). I told him to go ahead and DJ it, so I’ve got to give him more specific instructions,” Sanchez said with a laugh.
