The University of New Mexico football team will host it annual walk-on tryout for UNM students interested in joining the football program on Thursday September 5 after that morning's practice. Registration will take place outside the Tow Diehm Athletic Facility at 10:30 a.m. To be eligible to tryout for the team, individuals must be enrolled full-time at UNM attempting at least 12 credit hours or more in the Fall 2019 semester.
Walk-on tryouts have proven to be helpful for the program, as Steven Steele was a two-time letterwinner (2016-17) after winning a spot on the team after a walk-on tryout, and Dorsett Valdez also lettered in 2017.
