2020 WUERFFEL TROPHY PRESEASON WATCH LIST: Sage Doxtater, New Mexico State, senior, offensive line,...Doxtater, a three-year starter, is fully recovered after battling a nagging injury one year ago. He played in only four games with three starts after missing the first half of last season due to the injury. Regarded as the Canadian Football League's top offensive line draft prospect, Doxtater made an immediate impact in his first game action of last year. NM State generated a season-best 611 total yards of offense in the win over UIW, rushing for 295 yards and throwing for 316 yards behind his blocking. Off the field, Doxtater plays an active role in his community, using football to inspire children from his hometown. Hailing from Onieda Nation in southwestern Ontario, he frequently visits the elementary school he attended to speak with students about life outside of the reservation. - New Mexico State Football

07/26/20 - OMaury Samuels, rSr/2023, New Mexico State, 5-10, 195 (DS#999 RB) + More +

O'Maury Samuels appeared headed to greatness as a 16 year running back at Los Lunas High School. Samuels blew up into a four-star recruit as a junior with offers from three Power 5 conference teams and interest from others following his performance at The Opening regional in Dallas in 2016. Samuels committed to Michigan soon after. Now at the age of 21, Samuels finds himself atop a depth chart for the first time in his career as a redshirt junior with New Mexico State. "I think I have matured a lot," Samuels said. "I look at other things in life. I focus on mental health. I want to be a better player and a better person. I'm just more at peace in myself."

Samuels was the No. 1 prospect in New Mexico at Los Lunas, but his college career consists of 99 rushing yards and 21 attempts at Michigan. His time at Michigan ended when he left the school in 2018 following an incident that led to one misdemeanor charge of domestic violence and one misdemeanor charge of malicious destruction of property in Ann Arbor's 15th District Court. The domestic violence charge was dismissed as part of a plea agreement, according to news reports. "I learned a lot in terms of life and football," Samuels said. "I look at (NM State) as a second chance to play football. During COVID-19, there is a lot of uncertainty. Football is going to be back at some point, so I want to stay ready." - Las Cruces Sun News

04/26/20 - Jason Huntley, Sr/2020, New Mexico State, 5-08, 190 (DS#36 RB) + More +

Jason Huntley became the 30th New Mexico State football player to be drafted on Saturday. Huntley was selected by the Detroit Lions with the 27th pick in the fifth round (No. 172 overall). Huntley is the first NM State football player to be selected in the NFL Draft since wide receiver Jaleel Scott was picked by the Baltimore Ravens in the fourth round in 2017. "I'm thrilled for him and his family," Aggies head coach Doug Martin said. "(Huntley) sat behind Larry Rose III and never complained and just worked harder and learned and took reps and opportunity when he got them. He's a competitor when a lot of players will jump into the transfer portal when things don't go well and that's where he is where he is at today."

Prior to the Draft, Huntley talked about his versatility serving as his greatest strength. "He was very durable for his size and he went from 150 pounds when he got here and 190 pounds when he left so that tells you about his work ethic," Martin said. "He was unselfish and played two positions because that is what was best for the team and ultimately that is what helped him. He led us in tackles on the punt team. He was our right end. Stuff like that is what scouts see and focus on that a lot of fans don't see." - Las Cruces Sun News

03/24/20 - Eli Johnson, rSr/2022, New Mexico State, 6-1, 300 (DS#999 C) + More +

An Ole Miss football player said that both of his parents have tested positive for coronavirus and that he and his family have been quarantined. Eli Johnson, a senior from Lafayette High School in Oxford, posted on Twitter about his father's positive test on Sunday and asked for prayers. He followed up with his mother's positive test on Tuesday. "I cannot thank you all enough for the encouragement and support that has been shown to my family and I," he said. Johnson started all 12 games for the Rebels at center in 2019.

His father, David, covers Ole Miss football and recruiting for 247Sports. Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin said on a teleconference Tuesday that he hasn't figured out plans for how the team will handle Johnson's return when the team is allowed to reconvene. "That's a medical answer that when we get closer we'll figure out," Kiffin said. "How long does it last? I'm making assumptions that we would immediately re-test any kids that possibly were exposed." - The Clarion Ledger

The NM State football team hosted its annual Pro Day Tuesday inside the Coca-Cola Weight Training Center and Aggie Memorial Stadium. Twenty-one players, including 16 from last year's squad, worked out and ran through position drills in front of 16 NFL scouts and player personnel directors. Highlights from the day included running back Jason Huntley's blazing-fast 40-yard dash time and defensive back Shamad Lomax's impressive performance in the vertical jump. Defensive back Ray Buford Jr. showed off his quickness in the 20-yard shuttle, while running back Christian Gibson displayed his strength in the bench press.

Huntley, who did not receive an invite to this year's NFL Combine, proved that he belonged with the best Tuesday. His time of 4.37 in the 40-yard dash and broad jump of 131 inches (10 feet, 11 inches) would have both ranked first among running backs at this year's NFL Combine. The All-American's vertical jump of 39.5 inches would have ranked third among running backs at the Combine. His marks in the bench press (21), three-cone drill (7.19) and 20-yard shuttle (4.25), meanwhile, would have all ranked in the top 10 among players at his position. - Las Cruces Sun News

08/04/19 - OMaury Samuels, rSr/2023, New Mexico State, 5-10, 195 (DS#999 RB) + More +

Former Michigan running back and four-star prospect at Los Lunas High School O'Maury Samuels is in New Mexico State football fall camp. Samuels will be on scholarship, and will have two years of eligibility remaining after he sits out this season due to transfer rules, according to Aggies head coach Doug Martin. Samuels left Michigan following an incident in December that led to one misdemeanor charge of domestic violence and one misdemeanor charge of malicious destruction of property in Ann Arbor's 15th District Court.

The domestic violence charge was dismissed as part of a plea agreement in February, according to news reports. "All of that made it much easier because there was nothing legal that was a hindrance to him or to us," Martin said. "We talked to everybody at Michigan and our administration here. We look forward to O'Maury having a second chance and we are moving forward." - Las Cruces Sun News
