Shutdown for two weeks again

It came to my attention that UNM is using CARES ACT money to travel. I was told that after this weekends game unm is to travel to either Cali or Nevada to bubble for the week before heading to Hawaii to play. Apparently Cares act money is being used to fund this. Not to mention that we hear from the queen how small businesses are struggling and going under and it’s our fault but to hear UNM is using Cares Act money to bubble out of state. That doesn’t sit well. I have provided a link here from UNM board of regents meeting. It will go away after the next meeting. Slide on down to the 2 hour 41 minutes and 40 second mark.

What’s on tap this week?

I know we've asked it plenty of times but give your why too....

Top 10 Rivalries in New Mexico high school football or rival schools altogether.

Greatest teacher you've ever had and why?

David Quiñónez from Onate has Committed to Lunas Community College

Part of the statement from Nebraska's Athletic Director Bill Moos and Chancellor Ronnie Green,

“We believe the flexibility to play non-conference games could have been beneficial not only for Nebraska, but other Big Ten teams who may be in a similar position as the season progresses. The ability for all Big Ten members to play a non-conference game if needed could provide another data point for possible College Football Playoff and bowl consideration."

Mountain West Conference in New Mexico

What a title that would be in four years if San Diego State and the University of New Mexico meet up for the conference championship in Las Vegas with Crawford (SDSU) and Cumber (UNM) headlining the game.

The Rest of New Mexico Sleeping

Well, it's no surprise here and although lately many have been recruited more or given the walk-on treatment. New Mexico State University, NM Highlands, and Western New Mexico did not sign a player during the Fall signing period. It has been great seeing more New Mexicans on rosters but it'll be a wait and see this year. NMSU might be the only that stays away from New Mexicans for the most part.

Adams State and the RMAC

Adams State scooped up the fourth ranked prospect in New Mexico when they signed Feleena Gabaldon, a DI talent in the post that could put Adams State on the map. Another DI talent is Natalie Jojola who will be a RMAC rival at Western Colorado, ranked third in New Mexico. They will have a some New Mexico games playing in the RMAC with New Mexico Highlands University. Add in the trio with Mia Guest heading to Colorado Christian. We should also add Adams State grabbed up another top-10 ranked player in New Mexico in Celina Watson of Piedra Vista High School.

Who needs?

Who you got?
I'm going with these potential winners: Rham, Phil, Speith, Bubba and Tiger. Oddly enough for Tiger if he wins it is the identical way Jack won his 6th look it pretty cool story.

Post pictures of stories here.
