Josh Fussell gives New Mexico a throwback fullback who can block, catch, and add toughness
In the 2009 season, Fussell was a useful H-back/fullback piece for New Mexico, including a touchdown catch against Wyoming, and earlier Lobo notes described him as a receiver/blocker option rather than a pure mauler[13][15]. His appeal is the old-school utility: enough versatility to sneak into the passing game, plus the kind of physical, assignment-sound presence coaches love in short-yardage and protection roles[13].
