The question is: are these one year turn arounds being sustained. NMSU doesn’t appear to be. Time will tell about Indiana.
So if you win one year is that turning a program around? I think the the answer is No.

Rarely, if ever. What school has gone from zero to being a consistent power in your lifetime? I was looking at the NCAA Football national Champions and it’s the same schools that win: Bama, LSU, one of the three Florida schools, Michigan, Nebraska, Ohio St., Clemson. You have to go back to 91 with Washington and 1990 with Colorado/Ga Tech before you got some weird outlier teams. The super elite teams have enough money to keep the competition down. They can spend more money than anyone else. TCU and Boise State have tried but they can’t shatter the glass ceiling.

Hopefully having Nelson will draw some good portal receivers that can create separation and make plays

That schtick was old awhile ago.

You are a negative person and never have anything nice to say.

We all forget this completely forgettable "highly ranked" transfer? Keith Frazier.

A mcDonalds all American, top 20 overall recruit! And he was one of the worst teammates I ever saw wear a UTEP jersey. If I recall correctly, he didn't even finish the year. It was good riddance.


I'm extremely hyped about Nelson's signing but it's silly to think one player is going to move the needle with attendance before they've taken a snap. After the opening game, Utep attendance is 100% dependent on team success after years of failure.

Let’s see what happens. Walden has to first find out how to field an effective offense and he also has to call a good game.

Basketball has to make a tournament.

Are you related to Fili? 🤡

I think “the point” is pretty clear. We are a below average university with poor leadership and poor coaching in a crappy athletic conference. We’ll upgrade to a better conference soon. But what are we going to do with the other two issues?

God damn!!!

Walden recruited this young man and now UTEP sucks at everything, Kane's fingers have been working so hard the past 24 hours he's rubbing Aspercreme on them, Mike Price's name is getting invoked more often than a Alister Crowley Occultist convention and a dead coach, who we all couldn't wait to get fired fast enough, is up there with Haskins laughing his ass off.

KROD: best we can do is let you listen to the FCS championship.
Are you kidding me?!

Unfortunately, they can't control that since the FCS Championship is on ESPN.

Those are resale prices. Floor is general admission standing room. Some people want a seat. I paid a lot more than $350 (face value) for a lower level seat.

Once again stupid. Since those are the most expensive seats for sale.

Floor wasn't the most expensive "seat".

People start complaining about paying more than $20 for a ticket. My pair was significantly more than that. I heard of people spending four figures on a single ticket.
