Yep. Bad move. Firing Frank Solich didn’t work out so well eitherBoy Nebraska has become irrelevant in the Big 10! They made big mistake leaving the Big 12!
Give UTEP 2-3 weeks. After losing to OU, UNM, Boise and starting 1-4 they’ll join the club
Man that is some Detailed analysis. Can’t disagree with any of itUnfortunately I do, for a few reasons. During last year’s win over UNM, UTEP had only three points scored late in the third quarter and was trailing UNM despite a monster game from Cowing. This tells me the two teams are pretty evenly matched with respect to talent. UTEP could have easily lost that game if it weren’t for a fourth quarter UTEP comeback.
UMNs defensive coordinator, Rocky Long, is one of the nation’s best defensive coordinators and always makes it difficult for UTEP offenses to score. When you have Longs D going against Dimel’s O, who are you going to favor?
Also, most people don’t realize how terrible Dimel’s offense really is. Last year UTEP had the sixth EASIEST schedule in all FBS, yet they had one of the WORST offenses in terms of scoring. If your offense doesn’t score you don’t win, period. I don’t care about passing yards, rushing yards, or time of possession, if they don’t translate to points on the scoreboard they are meaningless statistics.
Unfortunately UTEP has an incompetent and stubborn offensive coach who has coached rpo offense’s almost his entire career who is attempting to implement and call a prostyle offense. It’s obvious to me he doesn’t know what he is doing and his decision to run the offense is this teams achilles heel. How else do explain 13 points against UNT at home with no in-game adjustments (again) with months and months to prepare?
Took Rocky Long 5 years to get UNM turned around and had some relative success at SDSU.
Both coaches are at opposite ends of the spectrum. One wants to be methodical, the other is a head hunter. I am not saying one is better than the other. What I am saying is Dimel, based on his mid major history up until last week can't get it done. Long's resume says another.
But, it's Long's first year and they are not his players, but he can players to over achieve. Why Long is not prowling on the sidelines as a d coordinator for a P5 school is mystifying?
He also racked up a ton of NCAA sanctions.Relative success at SDSU? He went to 9 bowl games in 9 years and was 81-38. That's relative success to you? You're really saying Long isn't better than Dimel?
What do you mean it is Long's first year?
He also racked up a ton of NCAA sanctions.
Long didn't do anything wrong but his assistants were caught but basically claimed unproper adjudication in the matter. Long supported them but admitted they messed up.He also racked up a ton of NCAA sanctions.
What did he do at UNM that was so great ? I looked at his record earlier. Not overly impressive. My hunch is Dave Bliss was the main attraction on campus in those daysRocky Long is the best coach in UNM history and the best coach in SDSU history. His resume speaks for itself. On his best day Dimel can't carry Long's jock.
Like what? I couldn't find any information.
New Mexico NCAA Sanctions Are Upheld
The University of New Mexico had sanctions dropped on them by the NCAA due to major rules violations involving academic fraud that took place in 2004-05...syndication.bleacherreport.com

but....It's NEBRASKA, man!!!???!!!!!Boy Nebraska has become irrelevant in the Big 10! They made big mistake leaving the Big 12!
LOL that’s trueHe had a stretch where UNM went to bowl games in 5/6 years. It's "impressive" by UNM standards. At UTEP you get an extension just making one bowl game!
I would say “water”. Jock is kind of cochino. 😝Rocky Long is the best coach in UNM history and the best coach in SDSU history. His resume speaks for itself. On his best day Dimel can't carry Long's jock.

This is bonus money improvement IMO.What did he do at UNM that was so great ? I looked at his record earlier. Not overly impressive. My hunch is Dave Bliss was the main attraction on campus in those days
MeIn fairness, how many diggers will celebrate if we don't get whooped by OU today?
Im a UTEP fan for life, but I'm sorry I hope we get so embarrassed that Senter and Dimel get dropped. I'm soooo tired of our piss poor product on the field.In fairness, how many diggers will celebrate if we don't get whooped by OU today?
That would be fine if it worked that way but it wouldn't. It would just be another in a long list of embarressing losses and Dimel would still be here for a couple more years. So with that in mind, I hope UTEP makes a respectable showing and ends up bowl eligible, heads to the Hawaii Bowl to eek out a win over San Jose State.Im a UTEP fan for life, but I'm sorry I hope we get so embarrassed that Senter and Dimel get dropped.

Even if we get our ass kicked, Senter will believe it is expected, so he will do nothing.Im a UTEP fan for life, but I'm sorry I hope we get so embarrassed that Senter and Dimel get dropped. I'm soooo tired of our piss poor product on the field.
I get your point but what you’re wishing for, our players will get embarrassed and humiliated on national tv. All because you have a grudge against our coach.

Seems to be the caseAgreed. @axingfools1 is a fake fan who probably never set foot in a college classroom.
Why would a fan of UTEP openly root for their team to be blown out and humiliated ? WeirdAgreed. @axingfools1 is a fake fan who probably never set foot in a college classroom.
