The UNM football team had a special guest step on the field during Monday morning’s practice.
“Chip” Kelly, former head coach of the San Francisco 49ers, is “charging the battery” and visiting teams across the nation to see what different programs are doing. He left University Stadium with a lot to say about head coach Bob Davie and the Lobos.
“I’ve always wanted to get a chance to get down here and watch practice to see what they’re doing. I’m just really, really impressed with how he is running this program right now,” Kelly said.
The feeling was mutual, as players were not able to hide their excitement of having him there.
