ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) -Mike Locksley will return next season as New Mexico’s coach.
Officials made the announcement on the school’s athletics website on Thursday. Athletic director Paul Krebs says he has finished his evaluation of the football program and determined that Locksley will return.
Krebs says the announcement was made “to quiet speculation about our head football coaching position.” Krebs says it’s important for recruits to know Locksley is coming back.
The Lobos finished 1-11 for the second straight season under Locksley, who was hired in December 2008.
Krebs says neither he nor Locksley are satisfied with results on the field, and he says both of them expect to see improvement in 2011.
