From the Santa Fe New Mexican - by Tim Korte - ALBUQUERQUE — New Mexico head coach Steve Alford said he had opportunities to leave this spring after the most successful season in school history. Forget it. He wants to be a Lobo. "My agent got several calls," Alford said Tuesday at a news conference. "But if you talked to my agent, he'd tell you that I told him not to return any calls." Alford agreed to terms on a contract extension in April but because of schedule conflicts wasn't able to sign the deal until this month. It runs through 2020 and will boost his total compensation to $1,149,200 over the next year, an increase of $145,000. He could also earn an additional $625,000 next season by meeting performance incentives. "I want to be a Lobo as long as you'll have me as a Lobo," he said.
