Class of 2020 point guard Nolan Dorsey announced his commitment to the University of New Mexico Lobos men’s basketball team on Sunday afternoon.
Dorsey received an offer from New Mexico on September 18 and visited the school a couple days later. The 6’6″ player currently attends Millbrook High School in North Carolina. His biggest strength, he said, is passing. Continue reading “Nolan Dorsey commits to New Mexico”
A few years ago many New Mexico coaches went to Las Vegas for a “nearby” coaches’ clinic. This Saturday the UNM WBB team held a coaches clinic at the Davalos Center, the third year they have done so. Each year it has grown a bit more, and there were almost 60 coaches attending this year. While most were HS coaches/staffs, there were also middle school coaches present.
Besides sessions from coach Mike Bradbury (building the dribble-drive offense) and Bill Ferarra (pressure defense), there were sessions by ENMU head coach Josh Prock, strength and conditioning coach Brett Nakashima, and motivational/team building sessions from Nathan Continue reading “2019 WBB Coaches Clinic”
The University of New Mexico football team had shown some promise in the offense two weeks ago, but inconsistency has now put the Lobos at a 2-3 overall record and head coach Bob Davie in a disappointed state.
Davie had said the New Mexico State game would be a “big indicator” of where the team stood. After beating the Aggies 55-52, the Lobo staff talked about the need for improvement on the defense. The defensive side of the team did improve against Liberty the following week but UNM still lost 10-17.
Bob Davie postgame said they have gone backwards the last two weeks. Expected consistency from Tevaka and frustrated with “ridiculous” interceptions from Jones. Davie, “we’ve got to grow up”. Enough character to compete, but disappointed in their performance.

Bayron Matos arrived to Albuquerque on Friday afternoon. He announced he was committing to the New Mexico Lobos 24 hours later.
The class of 2020 player announced it through social media by saying he was “150% committed.”
At 6’9″ Matos is definitely a big win for the UNM men’s basketball staff. The three things he listed that he was looking for in a school were a sense of family, play time right away and a Spanish speaking community/culture. New Mexico meets all of those requirements.
150 % Committed 🐺🐺🔥🙏@Fdmathletics_ @VerbalCommits @trigonis30 @PrepHoopsTN @EvanDaniels @HHhawksbball @247Sports pic.twitter.com/KDHq46oA63

Class of 2020 Bayron Matos is on an official visit at the University of New Mexico. The 6’9″ player landed in Albuquerque on Friday afternoon with assistant coach Brandon Mason and director of operations Ralph Davis waiting for him.
Matos has been hearing a lot of positive things about New Mexico and the Lobos, so he decided it was time to check out the 505.
“Everybody says that New Mexico is a big place. A lot of family, people love basketball here,” he said. “I thought, ‘I gotta check it out, I gotta go see this.'” Continue reading “Class of 2020 Bayron Matos visits New Mexico”
