Mountain West football: The 2016 Twitter list

Las Vegas is ground zero once more for the Mountain West Conference coaches and players that have descended upon the desert for this year's media days. We here at Mountain West Connection have compiled, in the last few years, a strong and comprehensive list of on- and off-field figures -- players, coaches, media folks and more -- to follow on everyone's favorite 140-character social media platform for all of the action here and into the fall.

Once again, the list has been revised and is better than ever! If there are any MWC folks who you feel deserve to be included, feel free to leave suggestions within the comments, preferably with the "@" handle included.

For starters, though, you should really follow everyone on our crack staff, even if they are 100% biased against your team.
