Isaiah Cottrell - Status unclear for opener Coach Kevin Kruger said that Cottrell (foot) is TBD for the opener on Nov. 7 against Southern but should be able to return to full strength shortly after that, Jon Rothstein of CBS...

Impact Cottrell has been dealing with this foot injury for about a month now. He was a consistent starter a year ago for West Virginia where he averaged 4.2 points and 2.8 rebounds per game. Cottrell is in position to push for a starting spot again with UNLV when healthy. If he can't go in the opener, then Nov. 12 against Incarnate Word or Nov. 15 against Dayton seem like logical return options.
