ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Yes, the season will go on.
The Lobo men’s basketball team on Monday afternoon returned to a basketball court for the first time since their Christmas Day embarrassment in Hawaii – a 23-point loss to Washington State that capped a horrid week of basketball with four-consecutive losses, three of the gut-shot, embarrassing variety.
“Hopefully they haven’t lost their confidence,” UNM head coach Craig Neal said, “which I don’t think they have.”
Addressing the Albuquerque media for the first time since returning from Hawaii, Neal said changes will be coming. But he wouldn’t say specifically what that means – including if a change in the starting lineup could be in order – as the Lobos (7-6) prepare to host Nevada on Wednesday.
