Nate Jones, a dynamic running back who did not practice during the University of New Mexico’s spring football drills, has entered the transfer portal, he announced on Twitter Friday night.
Jones, a 5-foot-11, 205-pound freshman, was second on the team last season with 210 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 41 carries.
“I just felt like I needed a change for myself, a different opportunity than the one I had at New Mexico,” Jones said on Saturday. “I’m still deciding on what school to go to.”
