Stump Godfrey Transferring From New Mexico Football

The decision came on the heels of Monday’s announcement that Godfrey asked Lobos’ head coach Mike Locksley to name him as the starter or grant him his release. Locksley was unable to do the former, and thus the release was given per Godfrey’s wishes. The only provision to the agreement is that the Texas native cannot transfer to any school on New Mexico’s schedule through 2015, including all teams within the Mountain West Conference.

Locksley issued this statement following the announcement.
