Sadly and tragically, Organ Mountain's Abe Romero passed away this morning. Thoughts and prayers to his family, community, classmates, and the
@OrganMountainFB
program.
2025 La Cueva RB Koby McGill just ran a 4.4 in the 40 at the UNM camp. 2025 Santa Fe WR Bryce Melton just ran a 4.4 as well. Cleveland RB Andre Aguirre ran a 4.43. Some impressive speed on display here.
2025 La Cueva QB offered by Texas Tech, his 1st P5 offer. He joins 2025 teammates LB Mason Posa and OL Mark Handy in being offered by Texas Tech. Could all 3 end up in Lubbock?
2025 La Cueva OLB offered by Alabaman (not the country music supergroup, either). Impressive offer for Mason. Cue 'Sweet Home Alabama' by Lynyrd Skynyrd.
We've arrived in Portales for tomorrow's annual 7x7 event at Eastern New Mexico University. 25+ NM teams are set to participate. Gonna be a big day filled with 7x7 action. Looking forward to talking with coaches and players.
Former Cleveland star
@LukeWysong
's stats from last night's 41-0 win for
@UNMLoboFB
over Maine: 12 touches, 128 all-purpose yards.
Lobos got him the ball with pitches and swing passes so he could make plays on the perimeter and force the D to make tackles in space.
Luke Wyong makes his 4th reception of the 1H in the final seconds of the 2Q. In fact, it's the final play.
Halftime: Lobos 21, Houston Baptist 10.
Wysong: 4 receptions for 46 yards. 4 targets, 4 catches. Nice production from a true freshman playing his first CFB game.
I'm going to need a calculator to determine the total number of 2023 New Mexico prospects that signed with
@ENMUFootball
today + are committed and plan to sign in the future.
@CoachKelleyLee
Artesia and Roswell are ranked 1-2 in the new MaxPreps state poll, setting the stage for a possible showdown between the top two ranked teams in NM on Oct. 13 at the Wool Bowl

Gadsden players celebrate 1st playoff win in 60+ years with the several dozen Panther fans that made the long trip to Los Alamos. Impressed by the turnout of Gadsden supporters. Loud all game long.
We just spoke with Cleveland WR
@LukeWysong
about signing with
@UNMLoboFB
today. Blessed with sub-4.5 speed in the 40, Wysong told us he'll also be a sprinter for the Lobos track team in the spring.
Excellent camp tonight by
@ENMUFootball
at La Cueva High School in ABQ. Well organized and well coached. Kudos to
@HiattENMU
and his outstanding staff.
An interesting note re: La Cueva's 2024 schedule - the Bears will travel to Flagstaff, AZ in Week 2 (Aug. 30 or 31) to face Phoenix (AZ) Pinnacle in a neutral site cross-state matchup.
The other 2 non-district games are against Volcano Vista (8/23) and Farmington (Week 5).
FINAL: New Mexico State rallies from an early 14-0 deficit to beat Western Kentucky 38-29 and punch a ticket to the Conference USA championship game on December 1. The Aggies are 8-3, 6-1 in
#CUSA
. What a turnaround by Jerry Kill in less than 2 years.
2024 West Mesa QB/ATH took an official visit to New Mexico this weekend and is re-offered by the new Lobos staff. Brody is verbally committed to ENMU but now has a decision to make.
2022 Rio Rancho RB, who rushed for 300+ yards against Cleveland last Friday night, picks up his first offer from
@UNMLoboFB
.
The Lobos could potentially have an all-New Mexico offensive backfield in the future with QB Isaiah Chavez, RB Jeston Webskowski and Vigil. Love to see it
The Carreon brothers are every good at football. First, OL
@Roger_52_
is committed to Boise State. Younger brother Alexavier had 395 yards rushing (per MaxPreps) vs. Texico in Week 1. Officially, the ninth highest single game total in NM history.

traveled to FCS Idaho State in Pocatello, ID for a camp on Sat. After his MVP-winning camp performance, he left there with an offer from ISU.
We talked with Ian about his camp experience and getting the offer. Our story:

qualifying for the National Finals in the 100 and 200 meters in Eugene Oregon. Top 8 in the country. Finals are today in the 200m. Young man is only 16 years old.
Making Santa Fe Proud Bryce. 🔥🔥🔥
So far,
@UNMLoboFB
has signed 4 in-state prospects. The new Lobos staff vowed to focus more time and energy on NM prospects, and we're seeing the dividends today.
2023 Hobbs WR Kaden Trevino held offers from D2 and D3 schools but he has accepted a PWO offer from New Mexico State. Good pickup for the Aggies.
@1__KayTea
@NMStateFootball
National Signing Day 2023 Next up Kaden! Accepting a PWO at New Mexico State University in Las Cruces, NM! Slot receiver with incredible ball skills and speed to burn. KT has been an invaluable part of the Hobbs Eagles over the last three season! Proud of you KT!

Former La Cueva LB Matt Pascuzzi has informed me that he has moved to Lubbock, TX (home of Texas Tech) and will be attending Lubbock Christian High for his senior year.
@MattPascuzzi
The 7x7 Jamboree here in Socorro is finished. Good day of 7x7 action. Got a lot of video. Here is Rio Rancho HC Nate Pino talking to his players at the end of the day.
@natemp83
Western New Mexico also showing New Mexico players love.. they have signed NM players that will be factors for their team for years to come.
@WNMUFootball
Unfortunately, New Mexico Highlands announced last night that Ron Hudson is no longer the head football coach at NMHU, effectively immediately, and that a nationwide search has begun to find his replacement.
Former Cibola DE/LB Maverick Gracio moved to Fla. last year before his junior season and is now attending Cardinal Newman High School in West Palm Beach, FL. He has Power 5 offers from Illinois, Pittsburgh & Purdue + several G5 offers.
@SebastianNoel47
@MaverickGracio

We said earlier today that dynamic 2024 West Mesa QB/ATH Elijah Brody had a decision to make after being re-offered by the new Lobos staff. Brody has made that decision. He has flipped to the Lobos.

@_RRHSathletics
RB
@zacharyvigil21
after Monday's practice, Oregon HC
@coach_cristobal
started following Vigil on Twitter last night. Two Pac-12 schools now showing interest.
When you look at the stats from Saturday's Class 6A championship game, you realize what great TEAM defense
@CHSStormFB
played in limiting RR to less than 160 total yards.
Nobody had more than 6 tackles. EIGHT players had between 4 and 6 tackles. Impressive.
