Week 1, 2011

The offseason is over! Two-a-days have concluded and the student body is returning to Albuquerque and are ready for the season opener against Colorado State. We have already placed redshirts on players, set up the recruiting boards and finished up the schedule. Now Colorado State looms large on the coaching staffs minds, but there is plenty that needs to be done in spite of the game.

One of the biggest decisions of the year came this week when we had to finish the depth chart. We were having a tough time deciding on our starting QB. Junior BR Holbrook (65), Sophomore Stump Godfrey (65), and true freshman Dustin Walton (64) all made great showings in fall camp and would be able to start for us. Unfortunately we can only start one at a time and we chose BR because of his ability to run the ball better than the rest (68 spd 69 agl 73 acc). Dustin Walton will redshirt this season and be looked upon to win the job next season.

I have been put in charge of overseeing the recruiting staff as well as the offensive coaching staff.

This week we will offer scholarships to the players we have scouted and have on our board. We are looking to sign most of the players from the state of New Mexico, is not all, along with players from Oklahoma, Texas and Arizona. Here is a peek at our most recent board:
