New Mexico State didn’t only beat rival University of New Mexico earlier this month … quarterback Diego Pavia also allegedly peed on UNM’s logo — an act that was seemingly captured on video!
New Mexico St. and UNM, in-state rivals, squared off on September 16 … a game NMSU won 27-17. Pavia, their junior signal caller, went 9/14 for 203 passing yards and 2 touchdowns.
Nice game.
But, perhaps feeling he hadn’t done enough, Pavia seems to have offered the grounds crew an assist by (allegedly) watering the indoor … turf?
Per leaked video, a person wearing sweats (no uniform), appearing to be the quarterback, was seen urinating on the Lobo logo. It’s unclear if this was before or after the game.
A spokesperson for UNM told the Albuquerque Journal they became aware of the video several days after the game, and notified NMSU of the situation.
If Pavia’s in trouble — and let’s be honest, he likely is — New Mexico State says they will not reveal any disciplinary information, citing “federal privacy laws.”
Pavia, who became the full-time starter last season after sharing time as a freshman, has started all five of NMSU’s games (they’re 2-3), including the team’s 20-17 loss to Hawaii on Saturday.
The QB is supposed to be under center for the Aggies game against FIU on Saturday … though it remains to be seen whether Pavia is benched over the incident.
