UTEP FB and Chihuahua's schedule clash
I totally agree. I've often wondered why UTEP (and other organizations) never seem to be aware of competing events that will draw some fans away. I know that in a few cases TV dictates when and at what time a game is played, but there have been other instances where the Miners were playing... -

Louisiana Tech Women's B-Ball Coach Resigns After Impregnating Player | Total Pro Sports
I think you mean "death knell" - as in the ringing of a bell. -

OT - Do you believe those announcers?
I have never seen anything like the home cooking by the two TBS announcers for North Carolina. Never do I recall seeing a national championship game where all of the highlights post game were of the LOSERS! After a commercial break they came back and showed the highlights of Carolina's wins... -

Biggest Offensive Line in UTEP history?
WOW! I remember hearing the BYU linemen laughing at the UTEP offensive line that averaged about 225 lbs. at a game in the mid 70's. BYU had a fullback that year (in the 70's) that weighed about 245 lbs. He looked like a human bowling ball and our D-line was the pens. Kugler has delivered on... -

Should UTEP change its name back to Texas Western
Not the brightest idea I've ever heard. I came here in '66 just as Texas Western was transitioning from TWC to UTEP. The first year they were Texas Western College of the University of Texas. The 2nd year they were the University of Texas at El Paso of the University of Texas (what a mouthful... -

Stull has to fix this or CTF needs to realize
You "LOVE" the Miners? Whew, I'd hate to see what you have to say about a team you "HATE". Still, your money and opinion are as valid as the next guy's. Some folks just "LOVE" to bitch about those they "LOVE", I guess. -

Go Miners!
The obvious fact is a desperate need for a couple of big body rebounders in the paint. Hope Floyd can find them. Wilms will make a difference - IF his injury heals properly. -

David Palacio and the 66 Team
Thanks for posting this information. I knew there had been a "falling out" between Palacios and others with the '66 team, but I did not know the story about Tony Harper. Palacios has been quoted in the past regarding his dissatisfaction with how the non-black players were portrayed in the... -

Thoughts from this past weekend
Tim Floyd "earned" his position by being a winning D1 college coach over a long period of years. His job is not in question except by a few "fans" who know squat about coaching basketball. He and his staff have done an admirable job in molding a group of young, inexperienced players into an... -

OT: A little fatherly bragging
You should be proud of your son, but he should be equally proud of you and his mom. It is obvious that he has good genes and was raised with the right kind of values and attitude to become a successful man. Congratulations to you all. -

Steve Fischer's column in today's EP Times
Very good point, 2step. The "burn the house down" critics would have us believe that suddenly some new coach is going to change the physics of the modern basketball universe and build a program overnight that will vault UTEP into the stratosphere of basketball elitism. That didn't happen at... -

20 wins definitely in play!
Well, most of us fervently hope so. They played well today until the last 5 minutes - almost blew a 17 point lead. Go Miners! -

Best game of the year
According to Coach Johnson it wasn't a matter of "buying in" so much as it is figuring out which 5-6 guys could mesh into an effective team. Remember that these are all new starters and it took time for them to "buy in" to what Floyd and the coaches were trying to teach them. They seem to have... -

Where is The Maniac?
I didn't care for BarBEE, either, but booing him showed a distinct lack of class. However, he didn't hide the fact that he didn't like El Paso which also showed a lack of class. He built a winning team but he did it for himself, not for UTEP, the fans or the community. All of which, he showed...
