Rio Grande Rivalry loss ends tough week for Lobo athletics
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — The new Lobo athletic director hasn’t been on the job for a full week and he already has several things on his plate.
Fernando Lovo, the new athletic director at the University of New Mexico, is looking for a new head football coach and is waiting on the results of an investigation involving the men’s basketball team.
To make matters worse, the Lobo men’s basketball team lost 89-83 to the New Mexico State University Aggies in the Rio Grande Rivalry game Saturday night.
Sources say Ole Miss’s Zack Arnett and Texas A&M’s Holmon Wiggins are in the running for the head football coach job. Arnett is a former Lobo.
