THIS MAY NOT SIT WELL WITH SOME LOBO MENS BASKETBALL FANS. ANTHONY MATHIS SENT OUT A TWEET MONDAY, ANNOUNCING HE’S LEAVING U-N-M. HE HAD BEEN GRANTED AN EXTRA YEAR OF ELIGIBILITY BY THE N-C-A-A DUE TO HIS VERY LIMITED PLAYING MINUTES DURING HIS SOPHOMORE SEASON. HE WOULD HAVE PLAYED HERE AS A GRAD STUDENT.
MICHAEL CARLYLE WITH OUR SPORTS STATION, 6-10 THE SPORTS ANIMAL, TELLS US MATHIS COULD SEE COURT-TIME PRETTY QUICKLY. IN HIS TWEET ANNOUNCING HIS DEPARTURE, MATHIS SAYS “I’VE LEARNED SO MUCH DURING MY TIME IN ALBUQUERQUE…I WOULDN’T TRADE IT FOR THE WORLD.”
