The farthest that the Lobos went was the 98-99 season when they got in the elite 8 led by Kenny Thomas. I think they got blown out by UConn or some other powerhouse team. Usually they make it to the sweet 16 or an early exit. Lobo fan for well over 30 years! Always glad to meet a fellow Lobo fan! But I have to correct you-Lobos have never ever been to the sweet sixteen, much less the elite 8. They lost to that UConn team in the second round in 1999. I was on my way to check on my wedding site in another state in 1999 and listened in horror as my team was dismantled on the car radio. My recollection is that UConn won the whole thing that year. The closest the Lovos got to sweet 16 was losing to Louisville in the second round by 1 in the 90s, and 3 in 2012 (the Drew Gordon team). My family is really connected to UNM. I know this for a fact. I wish you were correct instead of me! I went to HS with Kenny Thomas, and even got to play ball with him a few times! He has always been very nice to me, and did not swat any of my shots into another state even though he could have easily. --- An opinion does not turn into a fact simply because the person holding it feels strongly about it. ...
