Koy Detmer, Jr. joined the Lobo Football program in January of 2024, and he serves as an offensive analyst while aiding with the quarterback room. He comes to New Mexico after a serving as a graduate assistant with Syracuse where he worked under Jason Beck.
This will be Detmer’s first year working with Bronco Mendenhall.
With New Mexico, Detmer will help Beck with UNM’s quarterback. Along with the quarterbacks, Detmer will help with analytics, pregame preparations and scouting.
At Syracuse he worked with current UNM offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Beck as Syracuse quarterbacks went from being ranked 108th in the country to 45th in just one season.
Detmer coached for two seasons at his alma mater of Texas A&M Kingsville, where he coached both wide receivers (2021) and running backs (2020). At Kingsville, Detmer passed for 3,831 yards over two seasons, completing 59-percent of his passes, and connecting for 32 touchdowns over the 2018 and 2019 campaigns. He was an All-Lone Star Conference selection after the 2018 season.
Detmer owns a handful of records in program history for the Javelinas as he threw for 450 yards on a 37-for-65 clip in a 45-33 loss to No. 4 Tarleton on October 26, 2019. It was only the second time a Javelina quarterback threw for at least 450 yards as he tied the program record for pass attempts, broke the record for pass completions and fell seven yards shy of the single-game record for passing yards.
The Somerset, Texas native earned his bachelor’s degree from Texas A&M Kingsville in 2020 after previously spending two seasons at BYU. He is the son of former NFL player Koy Detmer.
