Researching CUSA running backs and noticed that the rushing leader (777 yards) and future draft pick James Jones (@Tramoney11) plays for New Mexico State.

So down the rabbit hole I went and found the person responsible for the running backs was David Cobb.

@DCobb27 was a 5th round draft pick running back out of Minnesota. He was a NFL scout before heading into coaching.

His coaching career is at
New Mexico State
(2023): Director of scouting/NFL liaison
(2024): Running backs coach/ Recruiting Coordinator
(2025/2026): Assistant Head coach, General manager & running backs coach

He brought in Seth McGowan to New Mexico State which had 823 rushing yards before transferring to Kentucky and being drafted in the 7th round by the Colts.

He also brought in Mike Washington who had 725 rushing yards before transferring to Arkansas and later being drafted in the 4th round by the Raiders.

Kadarius Calloway, who signed with the Aggies last summer was once a 4 ⭐️ Alabama signee out of HS and later would sign as an UDFA with the Tampa Bay Bucs.

Impressive run at the Running Back position for the Aggies and head coach Tony Sanchez @Coach_TSanchez
