LAS CRUCES — New Mexico State coach Marvin Menzies feels good about his team’s potential for the rest of this season, including the prospect of earning the school’s fifth consecutive NCAA Tournament berth.
But the ninth-year Aggies coach also acknowledged one aspect that isn’t likely to change: The Aggie fans want more.
“It’s going to be tough as a 15 or 16 seed, but we’re going to give it our all,” Menzies said. “They want us to beat the (New Mexico) Lobos every time we play them. They probably have seven times our budget. It’s going to be a challenge, but we’re going to give it our all.
