The 6-foot-10 I chose New Mexico is a testament to the project as part of the Lobos coach Steve Alford has done his program leads to a partitioning of the market shares of the double-sided Mountain West titles. Kirk joined me recently to discuss why he chose the New Mexico how difficult it was to delete programs that recruit him down, and what impact he wants to do one of the Mountain West, the most decorated freshmen.
