Three more University of New Mexico football players – running back Bobby Cole, offensive lineman Leke Asenuga and wide receiver Cjay Boone – are set to transfer out of the program, bringing the number up 10 for those who have left the Lobos since their 3-9 season ended in November.
That’s not surprising, said Danny Gonzales, who is entering his third year as head coach of his alma mater.
“This is the new norm,” Gonzales said on Tuesday. “It’s like free agency in some aspects.”
There are many transfers across the nation because college football players can remain eligible to compete after transferring, Gonzales said.
