NMSU Aggies have pretty much sucked wind all year. Yes we have had a tough OOC schedule but IMO we haven't played up to hyped up expectations. Sure the competition has been rough and we are learning a new system but they told us we would be "competitive", so far we haven't been. Yeah NMSU has shown a few signs but only against the opponents scrubs in the second half, mostly. Right now NMSU is an embarrassment to the WAC. It will be interesting to see who the first of the new coaches is fired...right now I think Mumme is on track, but he does have five years to try and get the "air raid" going.

Give Mumme some time. You won't see a coach's true capabilities playing the toughest OOC WAC schedule with Sun Belt caliber players. Where you might question Mumme, however, is in recruiting. If he can't recruit, you're in trouble!
It's too bad NMSU had to play such a tough schedule. They weren't ready for it, IMHO.
Btw, I think the WAC is 1-16 vs D1A now, if you can call UNLV a D1A team. :rolleyes:
Way to take care of business, Pack!

Give Mumme a chance to get his recruits in place..........
He is still playing with those Sun Belt guys.....
Hey, we all have to do better or this will be the worst WAC season in recent history.

You really have to give any new coach about 3 years to get things going especially if they bring in new systems and the athletes aren't used to it. However the schedule that NMSU had this year Mumme didn't like because he was complaining it wouldn't give his team a chance a lot.

From what I understand next years OOC schedule will not be much easier.

Agreed, BSU needs to beat BGSU, and USU needs to beat UNLV. If we do that the bleeding will at least slow down. We play at Alabama later this season. Don't expect miracles, but I'm sure Brent Guy will get a good game plan.
