A rugged 7-foot Lobo anchor with old-school size and New Mexico roots
Obij Aget is a 7-1 center who gave New Mexico a massive interior body and was listed on the Lobos’ 2016-17 roster after joining from La Lumiere School in Indiana and originally hailing from South Sudan[8][12]. Earlier New Mexico notes show he contributed across multiple seasons and even appears among the program’s all-time statistical leaders for games played, which speaks to durability and a long college run[7][10]. His appeal is simple: size, physicality, and a role-player mindset; he’s the kind of big who can help teams by taking space, battling on the glass, and bringing experience rather than flashy box-score fireworks[7][15].
