What Went On
It appeared that defensive backs coach Tony White was calling the defensive plays in the first practice after former defensive coordinator Danny Gonzales took the New Mexico head coaching job.
In the 11-on-11 portion, there was a ton of dump offs and screen passes through the first part of the practice.
Closer up in the goal line, Jayden Daniels hit Kyle Williams on the side for a touchdown. The following play Daniels attempted a bubble screen to the left side that was picked off by Aashari Crosswell and probably would’ve been a pick-six in a real situation.
Herm Edwards said “Gotchu five” after that.
