Good Morning, Bronco Nation!

What else is mixed into today’s edition of Good Morning, Bronco Nation?

🏟️ 40 Years
🔦 Returner Spotlight
🔹 And so much more!

🔼 40 Years. The celebration of The Blue’s 40th anniversary continues with official merch! You can pick it up at The Blue and Orange Store, Bronco Shop, Scheels (Meridian), and at fanatics.com.

🔼 Record Crowd. Boise State volleyball played in front of the largest crowd in Idaho volleyball history last night at ExtraMile Arena, and the Broncos gave them a third set worth staying for. Down two sets to No. 25 BYU, Boise State battled point for point down the stretch, with Kendall Hastings knotting things at 24-24 on a kill from Tehya Maeva before the Cougars edged the frame 26-24. Azlynn Tittmann led the Broncos with 10 kills and Amelia Hansen added eight, while Melia Barlow anchored the back row with 12 digs.

🔼 Go There. Check out some of the scenes from the UTR Pro Tennis Tournament at Appleton featuring our Boise State men’s tennis squad!

🔼 Returner Spotlight. Today’s Boise State men’s basketball Returner Spotlight features fifth-year player Brennan Ramirez! A former student manager, he was added to the active roster as a walk-on in November 2024 and made his collegiate debut days later against Corban. Last season brought a milestone, as he collected his first career points and knocked down a 3-pointer against Air Force in January.

Before returning to coach the Broncos, what did Luke Shields accomplish as a Boise State player?
