University of New Mexico football coach Danny Gonzales is basically pulling out all the stops in order to attract more people to University Stadium for the Lobos’ Friday night game against heavy favorite Boise State.
His latest ploy shows his love for Lobo football history and his connection to players these days wanting to look flashy for the national TV cameras, as the game is on CBS Sports Network.
For the first time since 1973, the Lobos will take the field wearing cherry helmets.
Gonzales, at his press conference later today, is expected to talk about the idea behind bringing out the bright red helmets.
