From Friday night… Look at that ballpark and crowd showing up for an 18-21 overall team.

UTRGV should be the next mid major powerhouse.

[Bryan @RealBGauvin23]

UTRGV LB Spencer Rich (@Spencerrich13) was a key defender in the Vaqueros’ defense in 2025.

The Nashville, Tennessee native devoured ball carriers, finishing with 98 tackles, 3 TFLs, 3 fumble recoveries, and a PBU.

The Vaqueros quietly boast one of the more productive LB rooms in all of FCS.
