Report: New Mexico State to Hire Jerry Kill as Next Head Football Coach

The winds of change are sweeping through the Mesilla Valley.

After one memorable season, and many miserable ones, New Mexico State has decided to let the contract of Head Coach Doug Martin expire and bring in someone new.

According to FootballScoop.com, that someone is former Minnesota Head Coach and current TCU interim head coach, Jerry Kill.

A close working relationship between AD Mario Moccia and Jerry Kill during their time together at Southern Illinois is being credited with the deal, according to the report.

Kill is expected to hire Tim Beck as offensive coordinator and Nate Dreiling as defensive coordinator.
