Hoping Davie gets better soon.
New Mexico’s win over Sam Houston State was overshadowed by head coach Bob Davie who was taken to the hospital as what is being described as a “serious medical incident.” His wife Joanne was seen in the front seat of the ambulance that took Davie to the hospital.
The scheduled press conference was canceled, and all press present were told that UNM athletics director Eddie Nunez would be releasing a statement regarding the incident involving Coach Davie.
The school released a statement shortly after the incident.
“Immediately following tonight’s football game between The University of New Mexico and Sam Houston State, Lobo head coach Bob Davie was taken to the hospital as the result of what appeared to be a serious medical incident.”
