To the person who parked next to me at Rust Medical Center in Rio Rancho today, all I can say is I admire the dedication.

I took pictures instead of touching it because I didn't want to leave any ............ prints.

Having listened to all of your podcasts with this season's assistant coaches I believe the group assembled by Olen is as solid as any I can remember here.

I'm really looking forward to watching this year's Lobos.

Had the defecting 5 Pac 12 schools ever thought they'd be down to taking Texas State at a complete share, they would have taken UNM from start or never defected. It can be spun 1,00 different ways, but this ultimately was a big failure, and one played out on a big stage.
