A subculture that is undisciplined at best, violent at its worst, has won out over New Mexico State-New Mexico basketball.
So we can’t have nice things anymore.
Think where we were heading into last weekend. A 3-0 UNM men’s basketball team off to a promising start was gearing up to face a New Mexico State squad with a new coach, almost all new faces, and enough buzz to elicit great curiosity. Fifteen thousand people, certainly, were coming to the Pit. UNM Athletics, Lobo fans and this city desperately needed something like this to rally around.
We had this coming.
