Gonzales most likely to name Lobos’ starting QB today

No announcement on the Lobos’ starting quarterback came on Sunday, but the news is most likely to be revealed on Monday.

UNM senior transfer Miles Kendrick (Kansas), redshirt freshman CJ Montes and sophomore transfer Justin Holaday (Fresno City College) have been competing for the spot for the majority of the month.

Danny Gonzales, in this third year as the Lobos’ coach, wanted to name the starter two weeks before his team’s season opener, which is Sept. 3 against Maine at University Stadium. He said on Saturday he might announce the starter on Sunday.

UNM redshirt freshman quarterback CJ Montes had a great spring and was one of the top performers during the practices.
