The New Mexico State University teams are called the Aggies, a nickname derived from the university's agricultural beginnings. The mascot is known as "Pistol Pete". NMSU's colors are crimson and white. Since 2023 the Aggies have competed in Conference USA in all men's and women's sports. New Mexico State sponsors six men's and ten women's teams in NCAA sanctioned sports. The athletic director Mario Moccia, who had held the position since January 2015, was fired in January 2025 following an investigation into scandals during the 2022-23 NMSU men's basketball season. Amber Burdge, one of NMSU's deputy athletic directors, is his temporary replacement.
