Unrelated to recent campus shooting, UNM Lobo men’s basketball player Jay Allen-Tovar to transfer

University of New Mexico forward Jay Allen-Tovar has entered the NCAA’s transfer portal and intends to finish his college playing career elsewhere.

The decision, the Journal has been told, was made following the team’s Nov. 15 win at SMU in Dallas — the last time the Lobos played — and is not related to the events of this past weekend that involved a shooting on the UNM campus and the cancellation of the New Mexico State University-UNM rivalry game in the Pit.

Allen-Tovar’s name has been removed from the team’s online roster.

The 6-foot-9 senior in his second season with the Lobos has one more full season of playing eligibility.
