Poor, pitiful New Mexico, with a paltry signing class of 11 announced Wednesday on the heels of a 2-10 2022 season?

Danny Gonzales doesn’t see it that way.

“There’s a lot of great things transpiring within our football program,” Gonzales, entering his fourth year as UNM’s head coach, said during a signing-day news conference.

First, Gonzales said, he’s excited about the 11 players who faxed in signed letters of intent on Wednesday.

The group is heavily weighted toward the offense, with two quarterbacks, four wide receivers and one offensive lineman signing on. New Mexico ranked 131st and last in the nation among NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision teams in total offense this past season.
