From an article in todays Rio Rancho Observer, unlike the Albuq Journal you can get it free online, two former RR coaches, David Howes (RRHS) and Heath Ridenour (Cleveland) will not be retained under new coach Bronco Mendenhall, he got rid of all of the current staff at UNM.

Two things that surprised me, the Lobos got Bronco Mendenhall, I think that's a good hire for them, he's been a proven Head Coach in College Football. The other thing is they are not retaining Heath at some level on his staff.
Heath one of the best if not the best HS Football coaches in NM before he went to UNM, He's still a relatively young coach too. He's a Lovington guy and played at Eastern NM. My friends in Roswell said he's rumored for the Goddard job, which man he would be an excellent hire, I'm just not sure he would want to come back to southern NM, I think he's been settled up North in the Albq/Rio Rancho area with his wife and kids, but if you need a job who knows.
Honestly it would be great to see him coaching hs football in New Mexico again, the state could use him, I just don't want to see him at our rival ha ha. It's my opinion but NM HS football was pretty weak this past year, just lots of awful teams.
Mike I don't know as much about David Howes other than he won a couple titles at Rio Rancho, but hopefully/surely both these guys will land on their feet, especially if they end up back in NM HS Football.
What other jobs are open around the state? I just know of Goddard

I have heard that for Goddard their freshman coach may possibly be there next head coach sounded like they have a pretty decent freshman class and that their head freshman coach had a kid playing with the freshman class. He was an former Goddard player himself

I have a coworker who’s wife is a teacher at Goddard she stated that two ABQ coaches have applied along with Roswell Highs DC Bolaños and two Artesia people.

If Bolaños gets the job that could really impact Roswell High. Lynn has said in multiple interviews that he has nothing to do with the defensive side of the ball and credits Bolaños for their defensive success. That could really shake things up for both schools and probably make Goddard a hell of a lot better football team than they are right now.

Bolaños was named the new head coach of for the Goddard Rockets. Congratulations to coach Bolaños. |
