Diego Pavia, New Mexico State quarterback, commits to Vanderbilt football


New Mexico State quarterback Diego Pavia has committed to Vanderbilt football, he announced on social media Wednesday.

Pavia, the Conference USA Offensive Player of the Year, joins the Commodores on the heels of Vanderbilt hiring several New Mexico State staffers, including offensive coordinator Tim Beck to the same role and coach Jerry Kill as a special advisor.

In 2023, Pavia completed 221 of his 366 passes for 2973 yards, 26 touchdowns and nine interceptions. Pavia’s backup in 2023, Blaze Berlowitz, also announced that he would transfer to the Commodores. He threw for 201 yards and three touchdowns in an upset win over Auburn.

Between Berlowitz, Pavia and Utah transfer Nate Johnson, Vanderbilt has added three quarterbacks from the transfer portal to replace outgoing quarterbacks AJ Swann, Ken Seals and Walter Taylor. The Commodores also have redshirt sophomore Drew Dickey as well as two incoming freshmen, Whit Muschamp and Jeremy St-Hilaire.

With classes for the spring semester already beginning, it is likely that Pavia will have to wait until the summer to enroll. Johnson and Berlowitz have already enrolled and joined the team for spring practice.

UNM plans to build new gates along Central


ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – The University of New Mexico plans to build new gates at four campus entrances along Central that will close nightly.

The gates will replace manual barriers in a project expected to cost about $1.5 million.

The Board of Regents approved the security upgrades for the UNM campus.

University officials said the gates will automatically close nightly from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m.

The gates will go in near Princeton Drive, Stanford Drive, Yale Boulevard and Terrace Street on the south end of campus.

A current rendering shows the gate completely blocking the road. Officials said the change will reduce unauthorized traffic and allow police officers to focus more effectively on prevention and response.

Construction will start in May. University officials hope to finish the project by September.
