New Mexico State to hire Jerry Kill as football coach

LAS CRUCES — Jerry Kill will be introduced as early as Monday afternoon as the next New Mexico State head football coach.

Multiple sources confirmed to the Sun-News that Kill, 60, will replace Doug Martin, whose contract will not be renewed after nine seasons. Kill is expected to be introduced via press conference on Monday.

The Aggies beat Massachusetts 44-27 on Saturday to finish Martin’s ninth season with a 2-10 record and a 25-74 record overall as the Aggies head coach.

Kill, 60, has previously worked for New Mexico State athletics director Mario Moccia at Southern Illinois when Kill was the head coach there from 2001-2007 and Moccia was the AD.
