Transfer Portal - Maurice Westmoreland

Not really recruitment linked but still related to the team. Westmoreland had entered the portal and it looks like he hasn't signed on with a team yet. Is there any chance that he comes back to UTEP for his graduate season? Rivals has him listed as a 4-star and I think it would be great to have him back for one last run. He is a tremendous athlete and a team leader.

List of Richest peeps with ties to UTEP

For giving purposes, UTEP should be courting these folks full steam ahead. Free tickets, champaign lunches, brunches, interviews by the pool.

I'll start with the obvious.

Paul Foster and Alejandra de la Vega

Also, one of the de la Vega kids at least, Artemio I think, went to UTEP while I was there.

Josh Hunt (Hunt Family)

Bob O'Rear (Microsolft: Net Worth thought to be around 100 Mill at last count)

Who else?

UTEP at Liberty

Fili initiated some ridiculous discussions about the Miners' chances for an at large bid before finally giving it up after our blowout loss to NMSU. There was one CUSA team coming into conference play, however, that did have realistic dreams of an at large provided they dominated the conference: Liberty. Unfortunately for the Flames, however, their play in conference hasn't been nearly as impressive as it was OOC, and those dreams are dashed. Still, I believe Liberty to be a significantly better team than we are, they're at home, and will be looking to bounce back after second conference home loss that they really should have won. I hope I'm wrong, but I don't see this one going our way:

Liberty 79
UTEP 65
