This is a long way from being a done deal. But to any fan or supporter of Lobo soccer: the time is now for you to contact the athletic director, the Board of Regents, and the new UNM president to state your support for UNM soccer and to strongly object to it being cut. It is far more helpful to make your feelings known now rather than after any decision is made.
This is not the same program as even 5 years ago. No post season three outta the last 4 seasons. Their last home game had an announced crowd of 800. They used to put 2-3k in the gym. There is no buzz anymore. Just look at the lack of posts on this board. When you add the lack of regional opponents...
I seriously doubt your knowledge of the soccer program considering you believe they play in a gym. Also, regional opponents??? Why would we want to play NMSU, UTEP, or any inferior MW schools when we can play (and beat) nationally recognized programs UCLA, Stanford, Washington, etc. Stay in your lane and have fun with a fledgling football program that is obviously a winner in our community (3-9 last year) and the buzz it creates by suspending their coach, creating a budget crisis, and future resentment of UNM fans. But like they say, there is no such thing as bad publicity.
Getting tid of the soccer team would borderline insanity.
