Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

All hell is breaking loose at New Mexico

It really is getting ugly down there. Now their head coach is punching assistants

How long until Mike Locksley gets the ax? I mean, he's already started the season 0-4. He's been accused of sexual harassment, the program is in shambles, he just lost to his bitter rival (who are equally as bad) and now, well, their coaches are brawlin'. 

You've got to wonder what the hell happened between 2007 and 2009. That was the season Rocky Long guided the Lobos to 9-wins and their first bowl victory since the mid-60s. Now their program is most certainly one of the worst in the country (and maybe that's being a bit generous). 

So is Locksley done? I think so. 

Maybe he can release his own video game...Mike Locksley Punch Out. It has a nice ring to it, don't you think?

If fired...

I think he should go be an assistant for Tom Cable and my Raiders.

He'd fit right in!

I’ve been lurking over at the Lobo board and they’re doing a ton of comparing to the Raiders.

That program is a wreck right now. Much like your Raiders.

I can't even watch...

the NFL right now. In fact, I haven’t been able to for about three years or so.

Al Davis needs to die. It’s the only way.

What happened?

I have always held respect for New Mexico because of how they play the Utes every year, but man….what has happened down there? I bet they were wishing right about now that Long was back. It’s too bad it is in our conference, I thought it was kinda funny when Rich Rod was being accused of the too much practice thing, and the Raiders thing was funny also, but now that it is in the conference, it’s not as funny.

GO UTES!!

i'm enjoying it..

let’s face it new mexico has been a thorn in utah’s side this decade more than just about any other mwc team. to see their program go down the toilet this year is a good thing

i expect new mexico to play miami of ohio in their bowl game (new mexico bowl)

the battle of the defeated bowl we can call it. first team to 7 points wins game. lmao! miami of ohio was shutout their first two games. new mexico losing to nmsu is the final nail in that coaches career. the season can’t be salvage so some assistant will take over. new mexico is an embarassment to the mwc. every team in this conference should pour on the points just like texas tech will do this week. peace out, ramble on!

Too bad

A tough New Mexico team was good for the conference. Now AF or CSU has to step up and play even better because it aint happening in Laramie.

Or Provo

See the way CSU hung yards on BYU? BYU was lucky to win that one.

Their D is suspect, again.

True.

If it weren’t for a few CSU screw ups in the first, the Rams definitely win that game.
