Seems like just yesterday that Bob Davie was standing on the field at DreamStyle Stadium, holding up the clay pot trophy given out to the winners of the New Mexico Bowl. Davie’s squad had just finished off a 9-4 season, just the second time since 1982 that the Lobos had won nine or more games. It had the feeling of a corner being turned by the program after Davie had taken over a program that had fallen to 3-33 in the previous three seasons prior to him getting there.
However, since that cold and windy December day in Albuquerque, the program has taken a sharp nosedive.
