New MWC Possibility:

Kane I can tell you for 100% Certainty you are Wrong, cause again I have it confirmed on what I believe to be a reliable source Utep and President Wilson have reached out to the PAC. So you can say whatever you want, but you don’t have any sources, you’re speaking 100% from your gut. Again, I never said the PAC has interest in Utep, that info I absolutely don’t claim to know. I do know Utep does has interest in them however.

That is not what you’re saying though. You just did not say “UTEP reached out”. You literally said, they had their “sights set on the Pac”.

Then you called a MWC move, a “decent play”. It’s the only they might have. And in this case, it’s more than decent. They don’t and won’t have a Pac 12 option. It’s like saying you have your “sight set on” Ana De Armas while you look for another girlfriend. That is fantasy. Just like UTEP to the Pac 12.

There’s no way UTEP has its “sights set on the Pac”. That is nonsense.

CUSA isn’t a move, let alone a chickenshit move. It’s something they have no control over.

If I was a betting man I’d say this is Uteps odds at this moment… Utep has it sights set on the PAC, but PAC is going to want a much larger Athletic Commitment and improvement in facilities. It doesn’t help that we don’t have very many men’s programs like baseball and soccer. Utep should absolutely do this though if the opportunity is even close to being there as in the long run it will be the wisest future money move. The MWC move is also a decent play. A bit of a smaller Athletic commitment and comparable to what we already spend, yet a significant increase in TV revenue expected to be about 3-4 million per school after a new deal gets done as opposed to 3/4 of a million that we get now. Utep could get on track with Football and Basketball and Profits for a couple of years and then see if PAC has interest at that point. CUSA is the safe chicken 🐔 Sh** move that no Miner fan really wants.

PAC 12 25%
MWC 40%
Stays in CUSA 35%

It's an actual exhibition game. Looks like a high school team. They don't even have matching uniforms. They should've at least played a pro team or something. They should've asked Randy Culpeper if could play against his old team.

UTEP was pro swc schools; it really alienated us from the Old guard wac schools (utah, CSU, Wyoming) who didn't want to expand so far east and wanted a more limited expansion. But votes were horse traded and that's how we got the wac 16.

"In 1991, four years after the American South was created, Thompson engineered a merger with the Sun Belt, where he became commissioner. Thompson applied for the WAC commissioner position in 1994 but was runner-up to Karl Benson, in part because Thompson was against the conference expanding. Ultimately, the WAC did expand, adding six schools in 1996, which led to its fracturing just two seasons later."

What is the story that led to the conflict with UTEP (Natalicio in charge) and the other college presidents of the old WAC? This goes beyond the struggles of the football team.

I don’t know of any conflict at that level. I do remember that UTEP was upset that the WAC basketball tournament was never held here, while others did.

Yes, I know the tournament was held here, but that was when top seeds used to hold it. I am only talking about when the sites were pre-determined like they are today.

If you read the article, it’s the same account he’s had since he was in high school. That’s how HS kids talk, this generation just puts everything on the internet. I don’t believe he was/is racist or homophobic. That used to be the culture.

Think about when you were in HS, if there was an outted gay kid, everyone called them the f word. Doesn’t make it right, but that’s how it used to be. This guy was just stupid enough not to scrub his account.

You're right, poor baby, someone comfort his ass.
