Kentucky projected starting left tackle Shiyazh Pete was the lead blocker for New Mexico State tailback Seth McGowan in 2024. The C-USA teammates could become SEC teammates in 2025. It’s officially head on a swivel season.
On3’s Pete Nakos is reporting that Kentucky “has the early momentum to land McGowan” out of the portal.

Seth McGowan (6-1, 220) was a former blue-chip recruit who signed with Oklahoma in the 2020 high school recruiting cycle. McGowan’s lead recruiter for the Sooners was current Kentucky running backs coach Jay Boulware. The Mesquite (Texas) Poteet product rushed for 370 yards as a true freshman in the Big 12 before being dismissed from the program before the 2021 season during an armed robbery investigation. McGowan would eventually plea guilty to larceny and was sentenced to a year of probation.
The tailback then had to sit out of college football for a couple of years before enrolling at NAIA Texas College in 2022 and Butler Community College in 2023. Seth McGowan would then land at New Mexico State where he rushed for 813 yards on 5.3 yards per rush and chipped in 23 receptions last fall. The tailback officially entered the transfer portal on April 17 and some Kentucky buzz has been created almost instantly.
UK left spring practice with just four scholarship tailbacks on the roster. Could help be on the way?

Colorado Parks and Wildlife rereleased a wolf into Grand County this week after it had traveled into New Mexico, according to a news release.
The New Mexico Department of Game and Fish captured gray wolf 2403 and returned the animal to Colorado.
Colorado wildlife officials decided to release the wolf in Grand County yesterday because of the proximity to “an unpaired female gray wolf,” nearby prey populations and distance from livestock, according to the release.
“Gray wolf 2403 has been returned to Colorado and released in a location where it can best contribute to CPW’s efforts to establish a self-sustaining wolf population while concurrently attempting to minimize potential wolf-related livestock conflicts,” said acting director of CPW Laura Clellan, according to the release.
The wolf was once a member of the Copper Creek pack but departed from it this fall.
A memorandum of understanding between Colorado and Arizona, New Mexico and Utah requires that any gray wolves that leave Colorado and enter those states be returned. That was created in part to maintain the integrity of a Mexican wolf recovery program.
“We recognized during the planning process that we would need to have consideration and plans to protect the genetic integrity of the Mexican wolf recovery program, while also establishing a gray wolf population in Colorado,” said CPW’s Wolf Conservation Program Manager Eric Odell, according to the release.
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – A judge sentenced a New Mexico man to nearly 20 years in prison for distributing meth and having guns in his possession to use while doing so.
Court records indicate 43-year-old David Amaya sold meth from a trailer on his parents’ property in Anthony throughout July and August 2024. Agents executed a search warrant Aug. 22 and found 1.18 kilograms of meth, two firearms and ammunition in the trailer and a makeshift bathroom.
Amaya pleaded guilty to possession of meth with intent to distribute it. A judge sentenced him to 235 months in prison.
Once he is out, Amaya will face five years of supervised release.
The FBI’s Albuquerque Field Office and the Las Cruces Metro Narcotics Task Force investigated the case. Assistant U.S. Attorney Kirk Williams prosecuted it.
