UTEP vs NMSU

How much longer are we supposed to wait? Enough is enough. At some point, blind optimism stops being hopeful and starts enabling mediocrity. Fans deserve better, and staying silent only lets the cycle continue. It’s not negativity, it’s accountability.

Great! Let me know when you and your friends are going to bring banners to the games. I already said I would pay all of your expenses.

I'll pay for your ticket, gas, and expenses.

Do you have any friends in El Paso? I'll buy your friend's tickets, give them $20, and pay for their dinner.

Let me know. We all need to get UTEP to make changes. I think having banners at the game will make a big change.

Well, 66, for the hundredth time, pointing out what’s happening isn’t trolling, it’s calling out the reality of the situation. Just because some people don’t want to face it doesn’t make it any less true. And no, I’m not taking “Fire Senter” signs to the game because, in case it wasn’t clear, I don’t live in El Paso. However, it doesn’t take being at the game in person to see the issues and speak up about them. Ignoring the problems or labeling those who call them out as trolls doesn’t help anyone.

It's funny because I never called you a troll. It seems like you have a guilty conscience.

You are exactly right. Everything knows who the trolls are who doesn't want UTEP to succeed.

I really don't think anybody is complaining about that. The complaints are about the same trolls who have the same routine over and over again.

Like I said, the trolls on here wouldn't be posting if UTEP was doing well. They only post when UTEP loses.

And when UTEP wins, you have nothing to say. If UTEP won by 30, you wouldn't be posting.

All you are looking for is attention because nobody in your life wants to talk to you.

I agree if some on here are the opposite end. I just don't think there are too many that do not want UTEP to succeed, they are just tired of going through this year after year and no changes being implemented.

Just like the NMSU game, sold out, such energy and zapped in no time at all. It is that which can make you very jaded because of the massive disappointment over and over.

Like I said, this becomes "TYPICAL UTEP" because it is. It happens over and over. This is why I find it funny when some get so worked up that the teams are being criticised, because they deserve it. Sitting there and being Rah Rah to me is worse, because all you get is the same thing.

The issue is that you can say that every single year. You don't know how many times I have seen Vegas say the same thing and the season end in great disappointment. Then say the exact same thing the following year.

No one enjoys calling out the team when they lose. Every single person on here wants them to succeed. The issue is that some on here live in that bubble and can't take it when fans are just tired of the same thing over and over. Going to the game and Rah Rah it up is great, but when you get beat down by 30 at home in a game you should be competitive and win to actually show progress, then getting mad because the fans on here are mad is asinine.

If the bubble people want to stay in has mediocrity at best in it, and they are fine with it, great, then don't go crazy on here when the others actually want change and improvement. Fans have every single right to complain because UTEP every single year does the same exact thing. I would argue they are better fans because they want the team to improve.

There does not become a point to where you should not support and hope for the best for UTEP, but in no way should people get mad when the fans start to get frustrated with what is in front of them and no change is happening. I have said it before if you are not, and not lobbying for change, then you are the bigger issue than the supposed fans that complain about it.

Seriously, when was the last time the Miners have not let us down? I am finding a hard time remembering it. Should we still have Price and Floyd coaching? Should Senter still have a job? Again, not making changes when you need them decimates the program, as it runs it into the ground and you have years of what we are seeing. Changes need to be made.

Exactly. We’ve seen this time after time. UTEP wins home games, they beat bad teams and eventually they will crash out in the CUSA tournament. Then we get the “wait until next year” posts.

The problem is the trolls state the same things over and over again. They are silent when UTEP wins or say the win is against a bad team, etc.

If UTEP won by 30 on Saturday, the trolls wouldn't be posting.

When or where did Sanders say that he has to coach woth his son? I've heard him say that there are a couple of teams he wants his sons to avoid, but thats it.

It is the same thing that LeBron said about his son. All the rumors that he was not going to the Lakers, and LeBron forced them to waste a pick on him and now he is a mediocre G League player.

Dion said that because there was no thought of himself being the coach. I will guarantee, he will want him drafted if he is the coach. Remember Jerry thought that Johnny Manziel was the best QB in the draft and was so upset when he was pushed out for Zack Martin. Dion will hype up Jerry and finagle that pick. Mark my words.

In saying the above though, I would think Jerry will hire Kellen Moore because it is the same old same old as Jerry thinks he is a genius.

Is it really that bad or are we overreacting? Yes this game was terrible but the team has been fighting and winning consistently. Most of the conference play is still ahead of us and this could shape out to be a great season. Let’s wait before called for Coach Golding to be executed before seeing how this plays out.

I’m not sure why you felt the need to split my post into three parts, but here’s the thing, the administration does monitor this board and social media. If they see fans voicing their frustration, it can push them to make changes. On the other hand, if everyone just pretends everything is fine, there’s no incentive to improve. They’ll just keep taking advantage of the situation.

How about this?

You and 10 friends at the next UTEP basketball game have banners that say "Fire Senter and Golding".

I bet you that you won't do that.

I can say from my experience on the nmsu board the athletic department does monitor fan boards and some of it does get filtered up to the AD. It is an easy way to see how the core fan base is reacting to decisions and events. Same thing for the NIL management.

Luckily the core fans aren't trolls.

I am sure (if anybody from the administration reads these posts) just laughs and shakes their head at some of the things written on here.

Does it matter how I post?

First of all, how do you know the administrator monitors this board and social media?

But you may be right! At the press conference to announce the new basketball coach, you and Kane's names will be mentioned because of your posts.

Take advantage of what exactly?

You must live in a bizarro world if you think a few troll posts on a message board is going to change anything.
