New Mexico State punishment for Diego Pavia urinating on New Mexico’s practice field to be ‘handled internally’
New Mexico State junior quarterback Diego Pavia is in some hot water after KOB4 in Albuquerque, New Mexico, reported on a video showing him apparently urinating on the practice field of in-state rival New Mexico. The incident apparently took place over the summer.
A UNM spokesperson told the TV station on Monday that they were aware of the video and had notified the athletic administration at New Mexico State. On Tuesday, New Mexico State assistant head coach and offensive coordinator Tim Beck addressed the video.
He said Pavia hasn’t been disciplined as of yet, but that punishment “will be handled internally.”
“You have high expectations for all your players,” Beck said. “Again, we’re disappointed in his actions, disappointed in what happened, but, again, it will be handled internally and then we’ll move forward.”
Beck said he ultimately hopes to move on from the incident.
“Obviously, you know, we’re disappointed in what happened, but that’s one of those things where we’ll deal with him and deal with it internally and move on,” Beck said.
New Mexico head coach Danny Gonzalez did not comment about the video when asked by the TV station.
Pavia has started all five games at quarterback for the Aggies, throwing for more than 1000 yards and tossing 10 touchdowns to four interceptions.
