📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Running It Back. Boise State football head coach Spencer Danielson announced that two key pieces of the coaching staff will return for the 2024 season. Both Tim Keane and Jabril Frazier helped coach their position groups to breakout seasons.

🏈 Keane will return as the Broncos’ offensive line coach for his fourth season with the team. His unit was dominant up front, ranking 12th in the nation by allowing just 1.14 sacks per game while also paving the way for a rushing offense that averaged 214.9 yards per game, ranking sixth in the nation.

🏈 Frazier will continue his coaching career with the Blue and Orange as the team’s defensive edge coach. In his first season with the Broncos, Frazier helped Jaden Virgin and Ahmed Hassanein break onto the scene. Virgin finished the season ranked 17th in fumble recoveries and Hassanein recorded a sack in nine straight games, the longest streak for an FBS player since 2015, and finished the season with 12.5 ranking sixth in the nation.

🔼 Game One. Boise State women's basketball fell short in its first game of the San Diego Winter Classic after losing to UC San Diego, 62-56. Three Broncos finished in double figures with Mya Hansen leading the team with a season-high 16 points. Elodie Lalotte recorded a double-double with 14 points and 10 rebounds while Natalie Pasco added another 13 points.

🔼 Spokane Preview. Following Boise State men’s basketball’s record-setting performance, the Broncos will head to Spokane, Wash., to take on 8-2 Washington State tonight at 9 p.m MT. The Blue and Orange are heading into the matchup on a five-game win streak with an 8-3 record.

Coming into the contest, four Broncos have recorded over 100 points on the season with Chibuzo Agbo leading the way with 179 points through the team’s first 11 games.
