Yes, Cyrus Kouandijio. The Lobos coach, Mike Loksley, is known as an aggressive and one of the top recruiters in the nation. He recruited Shawne Merriman, Vernon Davis as well as his brother Vontae Davis to name a few. Guys want to play for him. Unfortunately, it does not appear his amazing talent of recruitment has not transitioned nor rubbed off into the skill set of being a head coach. There are some who believe, those that know him personally football wise, that in his third year in situations is when things come into fruition. I sure hope so, since the majority of Lobos fans are shouting for his firing and were appalled he was brought back for this upcoming season. (Sort of like some of the Niner fan utter hatred in bringing back Alex Smith this season). His record is 2-22.

Lobos have some ballers, Locksley just can't do anything with them.

I disagree about New Mexico being a tough place to be good though. Sure it's not Austin, but it is close to Texas, and the Lobos had very good teams and attendance under Rocky Long. It can be done. Nebraska isn't a big state from a population standpoint. Idaho certainly isn't.

I'm going Oregon over LSU due to LSU's recent legal mishaps.

And going Boise St over Georgia, I think Georgia is over rated.
