Mario probably wishes he was back at The SIU. He is an  alum ... I think he played blue balls or maybe it was baseball for the Aggies. That may save his ass.

I am pretty sure he played baseball at NMSU.

He just got a 5 year extension in early April. He makes substantial more at NMSU than he did at SIU. SIU are the ones that wanted Mario to leave so it wasn’t an option to stay. With the recent events at NMSU he sure has been put in a bad spotlight but IF he is forced out he will be financially fine.

i am shocked they sign him to extension in the middle of a big scandal. no doubt there is a clause that lets them fire him with a meager payout or no payout if the scandal gets even worse. i sounds like it has.  he should be shat canned if reports are true that he knew.

What's odd is his extension was signed on the day the chancellor resigned.

That's not the impression I had at the time and I knew folks in the AD department including Mario. You may have known some donors who wanted him out, but I am pretty sure he wasn't forced out. In fact he got the job at NMSU and then left. Big pay raise, so the facts as I know them don't support your claim.

More trouble for Mario as the state is likely to investigate.

I'm pretty sure he was told he wasn't being renewed here.  that seems forever ago but he wasnt held in high regard in Anthony at that point. would have left regardless because it was new mex st. this debacle shows part of the reason his days were numbered here.

I'm pretty sure Mario was forced out because he depansed Randy Dunn.

I thought he should have received an extension! 🤗
